i helped on the photographs, the rest was done by a friend~ he majors in web design.
-
i don't know how many of you have seen this trials site, mighty cool design man.
-
It's finally done! took me a while, i'm happy~
-
Your bike is seriously nice man - i rekon you have done a top job on the build! - also im not sure if this is just my eye sight but the photos seem to be really clear - did you use a high resolution, and what camera did you use??
Thanks
:D :'( (Y)
It's a normal canon G2... i use a tripod, thats all =)
What wheel base frame is that? the 1065 or 1099? And what does it measure in at with your forks? I assume that has a little less rake than the ones used in the KOT estimations.
That rear cog does look pretty sweet - who makes it?
Wheelbase is 1065, when i measured it's at 1060. Those are echo urban forks sprayed black. I think they have the same length as the kot forks, but yes, a little less rake.
It's a Boone TI cog, i got it from a local store over here that deals in singlespeed stuff, cost me about $28, just a little more than a king cog, so i thought, just get the ti one. :P
it is a very sexual bike you have there but a couple of things in my opinion let it down,
1st: i odnt like the way your rims dont match,
2nd please get some all black tyres on there,
Yes! it's an eyesore as well! i've already sprayed the rims black, and swapped a black mich comp on the front. Got rid of the stupid panaracer. Looks a lot better now. Will post a full bike pic once i get back =D
that is sex on wheels mate but why are you having V brakes
I started on a zebdi, and i've been using vbrakes ever since.... never tried maguras though..
-
lookin' good
what width rim are you using with the vee? I am wanting to plonk on on my bike but am concirned about clearnece.
thats an old 42mm try all rim.
-
Wee~ brakes are IN~
Heatsink stuff (Y) The booster was a REALLY tight fit. Had to flex it out to screw it in. But overall, _amazing_.
-
I assume the front tyre is a Panaracer Trailblaster? If so, and if youve used it before, is it any good as i was thinking about getting one for the front
NO, do not get panaracers. Those are firexc Pro on the front. The rubber is really hard, becomes a little chalky after a long while, and slip all over the place. I regret ever getting it in the first place. I'm gonna change it reall soon~ maybe a maxxis or tryall.
the bb look real high on that frame aswell. i like it. i really like the little flick where the seat would be. like a little mudguard. haha
Yea thats one of those little quirks i like about it as well. Some really hate it though...
-
Those are echo urban forks, the old ones with steel steerer tubes. I'll be running v brakes with heatsink pads on this one =)
Will post the full thing once everthing arrives and as soon as i do something about the front wheel colors.... right now it's kinda like an eye sore.
-
it's nearly there!
Im still waiting for me heatsink adaptors to arrive ._.
-
All set up and good to go~
i sure hope this TI cog will last me quite a bit.
-
those are easton ea70 risers :(
yea i've got a set of square middleburns to go on soon~
And i tried tartybikes for the mech hangers, they dont have stock at the moment :sleeping:
-
Yea it's finally here after 5 painful weeks of waiting :sleeping:
I haven seen any other Kot ms2 pics other than Matt's one on tartybikes and some of the ones in RU. All em BT 6.0's are popping up all over the other forums though =(
I've yet to set up the cranks and chain... still waiting for my v-adaptors from heatsink. Can't wait to try it out after everything's done =D
Btw, anyone know where to get mech hangers for this thing...?

The problem is with the tires and rims. The ones i got from echo were double walled rims, and the Kenda Kinetics 2.35 was quite beefy. Overkill for the front.
Get single wall rims for the front and maybe a DMR moto digger, and you're good to go.
