adamtrials Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 looks lush apart from the forks, they look bent back or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsguru Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 wow looks like a steel caisso, only thing is the rear brake position that i dont like the look of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 The forks do look bent, but they feel fine, so I'll leave them for now. The brake position is fine, not had a problem yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeNNy Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Looks really nice Is it harder to set the brake up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UrbanLegend Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Does look rather nice, only thing I would do is possibly move the booster, could you not bolt that to the other mounts in the normal position? Bit more clearance between that and your chain etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 I think that is gorgeous, looks amazing, loving the brake positioning I bet it works incredibly!!!Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 The brake works like you wouldn't believe, and it can only get better because the pads are worn at funny angles right now.There would be no point moving the booster because the frame already has a small booster arch.

Sam Nugent Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 (edited) Cool, and yeah I think that brake position is maybe better. As it is more protected if anyone understands me? Well I get it anyway lol. Looks great!EDIT: Does that have normal positioned mounts too? Edited May 26, 2006 by Sam Nugent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 It has normal 4 bolts on top, in case I ever want to use a shitty magura , and normal vee brake mounts underneath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
