HippY Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) Well, hello guys! It is the time to introduce my new build, change my sig, and shout with my mum that it will not be overly expensive I just got a new frame kit! It is a magnificent Omen 24 preserved by Cocky/Seabass that is just beautiful. In real life seeing it, it is kinda heavy, but I will broke first, not the bike, I am sure At this current state it is the "lets throw it together, take some picture and scream like a little girl", so I will rebuild it again And as the great clerictgm said These frames are made by evil, dr. Evil. There are rumors that the Russian Mafia involved in this.OMEN is for bad guys, really bad guys, not for homeboys and pussies. . Current Part list Omen 24 frame Trialtech Disc forks MONGOIII headset BBB 110x30 stem Rockman Rocky bars Avid juicy 3 on the front Echo TR with MT2 lever on the back Hope Pro 2 rear hub Hope XC Front Hub DMR DV green rims Stuff to get Square taper BB 18T sprocket Spokes Moto Digger+tubes Seat post, clamp and seat discs+adapters(203 Schimano Rt66 front, 200mm Hope trial on the back) KMC Z610 chain It is not final, but it will be soon Edited March 9, 2014 by UKHippY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HippY Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 well at first look this thing is massive, although I can only really compare to my Koxx hydroxx frame But the gussets around the headtube are large and seems rather strong, thick plate it seems to be oversized everywhere It is proper heavy, but feel like a tank, while holding in a hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshole82 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 you should build the wheel yourself! i did mine in 2 hours with a screwdriver - surprisingly easy! looking forward to seeing this up and running - is it 24 or 26? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted March 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 I build my first wheel a while ago and it turned out surprisingly good, even when I laced it wrong! I will do the same here with a friend+help of several tequila beers It is 24 inch 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshole82 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 i'm very jealous of your green rim......i have a colour scheme in mind for the zebdi and it involves green. I am now being beaten to it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted March 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) Well you can be, as I cannot seem to find them anywhere, probably I will order them from germany Just ordered them from a dodgy german website, jaaaa, da ist gut mamma!

HippY Posted March 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 www.mountainbikes.net It seems genuine, the customer service is great and quick, postage costs reasonable, but yeah, not the most professioanl website I have ever seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Well Friday will be the time for the next order, and probably it will come from tarty for various reasons. My basket for Friday so far: First Square BB Halo Black spokes Trialtech 18T sprocket +20mm Hope Is/pm adapter Next order(s) KCNC +43 IS to IS adapter CRC: Holy roller tyres RT66 203 discs Z610 chain Seat will come later on, as it is not a crucial part of the bike Anything that you would modify or do differently? I was thinking that I should get 180 mm discs as I am 100% I do not need the excess power of 203 (I will be happy If I learn some smaller stuff) and it might be cheaper with a few pounds... although there wont be the swag factor of 203 discs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) okay, so as it turned out, I will order everything on Friday! although the order is modified a little: Rt66 180 disc: I do not need the power of 203 I am sure, and I can be assured that the discs wont kill my frame or fork DMR Moto Diggers: They are cheap and I think I will need the grip more for the trialsy moves especially when I will be on grass or doing DJ time to time Hope+20 Is to Is adapter, cos 180 disc Edit: Today I ordered from tarty tomorrow from CRC. I will go with Holy Rollers, as 9 people liked them opposed to the 2 DMR people, and thus I think it says that it should be a better tire Seat will be an inspired seat and post combo with a monty clamp, later on Edited March 27, 2014 by UKHippY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
