Mat Smith!! Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Should be sweeeet, the new chris king headsets look shit =[ without the silver/black writing, most of the new ones have the same colour writing as the acctual headset, which looks stupid :\.

Jan Tore Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 (edited) Done yet? Aye.. Only thing needed now is a little adjustment on the rear wheel, and rear brake adjustment. Also think the fork needs a cut.. Looks a bit high those bars. Outdoors pictures will be taken tomorrow Edited January 11, 2010 by Jan Tore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cam217 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 thats mint, are all the parts new ?? what was the overall cost for the build?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Tore Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 (edited) thats mint, are all the parts new ?? what was the overall cost for the build?? Everything but the BB, rear tyre, forks and rear hub. Rims, spokes and nipples were bought 4 weeks before the rest of the bike. Total cost would be around £1700 I think. Edit: How do I change the lever blade on the sl rim brake? Edited January 11, 2010 by Jan Tore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Beach Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Absolutly love it! What forks are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Tore Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Absolutly love it! What forks are they? It's an Echo SL fork. I just gave my rear rim a fresh harsh grind. Also cut down the steerer tube to let go of the spacers under the stem. I'll give it a go on the weight tomorrow. I'm hoping for less than 9,5kgs. And what's with Royal Mail really? Hope disc still hasn't arrived :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Tore Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Gave it a go on the weight today, and it's at 9,5. A Schwalbe tyre and it would go below 9, but I like the rain king.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoby Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Looks sexy man, wish I had that kind of money to spend on a bike . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liamlikesonza Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Just looks so smart! I wish I had the mod equivalent which I guess would be an echo team with the mod versions of the parts obviously. Liam PS Had another look and I just like it even more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
