maxxis26 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 thats one hell of alot of spacers under that stemlove the bike though the short version if im not mistaken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousertrials Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Spacers are essential for my riding height. I'm 6ft and 13stone so I cant ride a bike with a high BB and a low riser stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Jennings Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) Why do you have a booster when you have a built in one?. THATS EXTRA WEIGHT! Also.

basher Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Big whoop, so am I Thats not massivly tall or obese...Should definatly try it without the spacers.No he shouldnt seeing as the frame has a bb of 55 i think its is if im not mistaken. Meaning if he took the spacer out he;d nearly be going over bars when just riding on flat.Bike looks good shame frame has a shit geo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall_Rob Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Isn't mister tuniicliffe tall and riding a low rise stem I'm 6'6'' and used to run 30 degree rise on my pitbull, but now i'm down to 20 degrees on my simtra.Personal preference really so no one is right If you like it.... thats what matters.RobPs. it would probably be easier to stick a higher rise tryll stem on there instead.

26inch Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 a simple answer to the height problem would be not to have a dirty big bb rise. or a higher rise stem would certainly look better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousertrials Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I ran it without the booster and brakes were like really soft, so booster and all was well. And as was said above protects the crossover, which has been twated once before so win win. stacker's = essential. I had a bad back for ages with the hope 10 degree rise stem and a set of fatty forks. Got the onzas and used up all the hope stacker set and felt natural so I'm sticking with it for now. Ill poss be changing bike soon any hows when i get bored of it. Cheers for the replys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Sorry dude, but the number of spacers ruins the look . im 5ft-11ins and use an Echo Hi-Fi 130mm/15 degree rise with Adamant bars , so does Neil Tunnicliffe whom is 6ft-1in i think (taller than me). you should have got a Simtra 110mm/15 degree rise stem with Monty or Zoo bars. cant stand those forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
