Help with some burly hardtail pics...
- Thread starter Warped
- Start date
And for 10,000$ that could be yours too!
It wasnt designed as a production frame, but rather as a test platform. I am sure there are some things in the works at evil, though. Didnt ironhorse buy their pivot design?
Hey get that thing outta the burly HARDtails thread hehehehe

YAH!!!
Ok, so I've perused EVERY PAGE of this thread for aesthetic inspiration on my new hardtail (nicolai BMXTB). Got the build set up already, all black and grey, but can't for the life of me choose a color.
This thread didn't help. In fact, it confused me more. DAMN YOU AND YOUR NICE BIKES. My Surly was ugly, but it made life easy since it only came in one color.
The only thing I haven't seen is green. I'm now thinking a nice, deep green might make a pretty nice bike, esp. 'cuz I ride trails more than urban.
Or should I go greyish blue like I'd planned with the Thylacine???
Baby blue?
Ano silver? Bronze?
God, I'll shut up and stop bothering you all. I'll post pics when I finally get the sucker in hand, whatever I choose.

army green or pink. cant go wrong with pink. the gold would be pretty pimp too.
protigy I really wish you'd get that thing built up! God it's gorgeous. I can just picture it built.. Thompson, XTR, Atomlab, Chris King.. mmmmm!
And Bronze would be a dope colour for a burly HT!

Ive found that any paint finish can look great, as long as you keep the component selection completely black. If you start mixing black, grey, ti, silver, etc parts, then the aesthetics have to be considered a little more. But with all black parts, a burnt metallic orange can look just as bitchin as matt beige, tennis ball yellow, or black.
Ben, didja happen to get my email concerning a build kit for my HT a while back...? Never heard back from you. I need a bunch of parts, still. Lemme know if you want me to re-send it; I have some revisions to it, as well...

Oh, and thankfully, Nicolai doesn't do ano gold...anything 'pimp' doesn't suit my personality that well. Army green is a cool color, but it reminds me too much of work. I was considering a matt khaki-ish for a while...
Now british racing green seems to be a possibility as well. Would look good in the woods... I still want to find a pic of the ano bronze just to see what it looks like. Found an example online, but I don't know if it's the same as Nicolai's bronze.

How about rust-red primer with a clearcoat?
that would be cool
i have to say my bmx bike is army green and i have pretty much all black parts ( bars and fork arnt) and it looks cool

yellow stem??
red bar??
when i got it (used) it had a black seat, with white lettering markered red, a red fork with the arch painted black, a black deore shifter with the lettering markered red, and black cranks. i didnt like the color scheme so much, and im replacing things one at a time. no der -- SS, new seat, new cranks, new fork, need a new stem, this ones bent but i love it, and i need a new bar since this one is bent some, (and the bar is actually metallic pink RF riser!)
wicked, i've been perusing this thread for a loooooong time, there's some sweet bikes out there. recently i got a few upgrades for my p3 the one posted around the 20 page mark
but yeah, upgrades...
atomlabs trailpimp 24"s
some fat 2.6 identiti tyres
a hope m4 disc (which is not working to it's full potential
)
but yeah, this is what i wanted the bike to be... and i'm very happy with it

Well I finally have a contribution to the thread.. it's in ghetto street form right now.. still collecting parts is why! These are just swapped over from old parts! (Fork especially!)

I know, I think the frame is trying to repel it! Never has a 24 had to put up with such crap! Haha, but the 2003 DJ2 is only 10 feet away
Here's mine
got a Hope Bulb/521 coming in for a new front wheel, and a long syncros seatpost (425mm) for trailrides.

Edit your post and remove the FS bike from this thread.
Thanks.
Thanks.
terribly sorry boys, forgot about the hardtail tread - got a little excited there for a sec
post is deleted. Trond.
My rig, .243 frame, 2003 Marzocchi DJ 2, Atomlab wheels, Northshore cranks, Hayes brakes... all the good stuff. This thing rules, any questions about these frames let me know, I love mine.
LilDave - SWEET! That's almost identical spec to what I'm building mine into. Looks soo sweet
It's rad, I love the thing. It's bit heavy, but really, who cares? Burly as hell, jumps like a dream. Let me know how you like yours and send me a pic once you get it.
yah your .243 is sweet lil dave!
Thanks Monkeyboy, I love the thing. Its a bit on the hefty side, but no matter... it is really stable, easy to jump, and real easy to bunny hop and manual.
