JonMack Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) Well, after snapping the Dob on the disc mount, ordering a Bionic and not being able to get it in time for Sundays Bristol ride, I reluctantly had to buy this instead.Frame: Koxx XTP Marco HöselFork: DobHeadset: Chris KingBars: Monty TiStem: Monty TiGrips: Try-all FoamFront Brake: Hope Mono Trial/Monty KamelFront Wheel: Monty/Trial-Tech/Halo/DobFront Rim Tape: SelotapeFront Tube: KendaFront Tyre: Try-Alll (cut)Cranks: Monty TiSprocket: EchoBB: FSA Platinum ProPedals: DMR V12 Mag Ti (cut)Chain: KMC 510GRear Brake: Hope Mono Trial/HayesRear Wheel: Chris King BMX ISO/Trial-Tech/Halo/DobRear Rim Tape: SelotapeRear Tube: KendaRear Tyre: Monty Eagle Claw (cut)Snail Cams: MontyTotal Weight: 7.973kgFew cheeky things like Ti axles and Ti funbolts, Alloy crankbolts etc. but overall it's a pretty standard build. Have now put my spare Dob forks on with the longer steerer and 20mm of spacers to bring the bar height up a bit, it's added a few g's to the weight, but I'll soon lose that again only planned changes are sprocket, and maybe ti bolts and re-routed plastic hoses Ali C/Tarty Adam style in the future if they're gonna knock some weight off and not change the brake performance.Big thanks to Adam, as it's his old frame. Oh yeah, he built his up on 2nd April 2008, I built mine 3rd April 2009, he went from a Dob to this, I've gone from a Dob to this. Anyway, thanks a lot Adam I really appreciate it.- http://www.tartybikes.co.uk Edited April 7, 2009 by JonMack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonMack Posted April 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Just realised the rear brake lever is at a stupid angle that's cos I was kinda trying but failing to bleed it earlier. Just gonna go to work and do a proper job rather than bodge it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I thought it was going to be a surprise for Bristol Mackdaddy?Looks so fit though! Very light, still some weight can be saved there anyway I reckon. Definately needs white rims though, black doesn't suit it if you ask me.

Mr Motivator Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I don't usually like mods, but that looks fit.1. Are they V8s that have been cut?2. Hows the rear disk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
