Makes me want to own a hex! very nice! 22/15 on a 26" ? 22/17 would be 384mm chainstay according to the tarty sheet

Not very light at 595gr. The only reason for me to switch rims well be notaciable weight bennefit over my current inspired rims. I don't want to sacrifice (much)strenght though.

Any thoughts on the Dartmoor revolt v1 rim. Very light at 465gr, 33,5mm wide, but will they be strong enough? 400gr of my wheelset would be nice though )

Also bought a set of rsc, only waiting for the sintered pads, before installing them. I really hope they are up for the job. We will see (A)

Still happy with them Dman? My m810's are shot so seriously considering a set of these. Is the bite and hold as good as the saints?

Saints m810 (you can't run a 22t on the newer m820) with 68mm bb. I prefer 175mm crankarms. Saint/Zee will be stonger and stiffer. Slx is lighter and cheaper but still fine. Deore will be fine as well and look good imo!

Nice! Also like the purple ish Marino stickers! Is your handlebar this far forward far a reason? Also can't you get the rearwheel a bit further in the dropout? Remove some links or halflink maybe? It would be much nicer on the backwheel that way.

No, not a bad idea

I was expecting an edit of 2 hours Nice riding as always!

Fortunately I have I spare set of m810 brakes. I`m using a Hayes adapter in the front and I'll try to find one for the back as well. Hopefuly they are stronger then the shimano ones. Still a shame to ruin a perfectly fine m810 like this. :'(

Trialtech for trials trials, Arcade for street trials if you ask me.

WFT happened here??! Massive brake failure. Both caliper mounts broke off, aswell as the adaper. I suspect one of the mounts failed, causing the adapter and other mount to brake aswell. What do you guys think? 203mm rotor to blame? m810 calipers are pretty strong as far as I'm aware.

I like the black on blue better to be honest ;-) Both quality builds though!

Same here! It's so tight that there impossible to use...

I've used a halflink as well for a couple of weeks. Now my chain has stretched a little, so I removed it again. cs lenght is 365 now like I've ordered. Tyre clearance is 1mm on each side though. So it`s hard to keep it rub free... I can install a halflink again so there is more clearance. But that also means the cs lenght will be close to 375. When I order 365cs I expect it be able to ride that way without any problems.

Here is mine, custom geo. How is your tyre clearance with the conti`s?

Looks really good! Almost regretting going for candy red instead of black after seeing this. Is it an Archive? If not, what`s the geo?

I got impatient during summer, as I was waiting for the frame. As it turns out, I had to wait 9 months since i've ordered... So I bought a Inspired Console in the meantime. I can't ride them both so one of them has to go. I also have an Inspired fourplay frame&fork laying around that I'd like to sell )

Thought I share my Marino with you guys. Got it build last weekend. Geo: wb 1005 with 410*30 fork cs 364 bb +25 ha 74 Frameset (frame, fork, headset) is for sale for the right offer.

I can give it a try. It`s not in Spanish is it?!

Sounds like you've already made your decision. Let us know when you've got it, and lets talk about Marino`s over here So anyone received one of the new Marino`s yet?

Don`t forget that a Marino is about half the price of a Console.. so it`s not reasonable to expect it to be as nice as a Console of Arcade. For the price you pay a Marino is a nice looking kit! I`ll get some pics up as soon as I've reveiced/build mine.

Reach isn't far of the reach of a console I guess. I have a console and have a marino on the way(custom). So we'll see how it compares.

Cool vids! Too bad I've haven`t seen you yesterday, as I was riding in Amsterdam aswell!

I think that you know perfectly well what the benefits are of a shorter wb, shorter cs`s, steeper ha Ross ;-)
