I could have sworn I've seen chrome 24" BFR's around someplace. Have you tried Dan's Comp? They do have chrome RhinoLites (which IMO are better hoops).Mr Tiles said:In that last pic, it almost looks chrome. I noticed on their site they are gunmetal gray. I've been looking for a 24" 36h chrome bfr forever. I don't think they make them. I even emailed sun twice and they never responded...
good call don, I didn't even notice the chrome rhyno on there. I agree that would be a better choice. saving my pennies up for one now and some kool stop pads...don said:I could have sworn I've seen chrome 24" BFR's around someplace. Have you tried Dan's Comp?

how well does your rim brake work w/ the GI?v-digit said:atomlab gi dirt - seems groovy so far.

I find discs useless for street...(unless you get them for free... or paid to use them) Botched side hops/pedal grinds, ledge tricks = bent discs... not to mention V-brakes work just fine if you set them up right.v-digit said:perfect
i dont miss discs at all.
It was in the $1900 to $2000 range, but there's some ti bits on there that you really don't need. As V-digit stated, you could put something similar together for around $1500. The frame/fork/hs/bb deal Landon has put together is a pretty good deal all things considered. Save some cash on some inexpensive wheels and you'd be right around $1500 and have one hell of a machine.Eatmyfood! said:How much does the Tonic bike in the original post cost?
are you talking about the length of the headtube? i believe its longer so that all fork crowns can clear the downtube. side effect of integrated htBicyclist said:Hey qualude, the headtube on the Nemesis looks really tall. Is it just the picture or are the bars way up there?
i opened the original(large) pic by clicking on the thumbnail, then right click>copy image location. then paste in betweentrust4130 said:Hey Stoked, thanks for fixing the picture I tried to post. Could you please enlighten me as to the mystical powers used to do such a thing? Imageshack had instructions for posting a thumbnail, but not a full-size pic...
Yeah, but the bars are still WAY up there. Like my DH bike almost.Stoked said:are you talking about the length of the headtube? i believe its longer so that all fork crowns can clear the downtube. side effect of integrated ht

Actually, it is really tall. Waiting on the delivery of my "modded" Z1 from Nemesis. My DJ1 is at 100mm, and the frame was built around a 65-70mm fork. Not to mention, the "wide" setting on the P&S I used to shoot it with makes it look a bit funky.Stoked said:are you talking about the length of the headtube? i believe its longer so that all fork crowns can clear the downtube. side effect of integrated ht

hey tiles did you get the gold or green spring? ive been using the gold spring for a couple weeks and its been a totally different fork. highly suggest this spring for the dirt/street bunch.Mr Tiles said:how's that fork feel? I haven't ridden one yet but they look very interesting. My sherman barely moves with the tool and die spring mod and that's the way I like it for park and stuff. Just wondering how much if any the nemesis tuned forks go thru the travel?
you need a dremel and a belt sander helps. none of which i had but racer edge hooked it up. gerald has a good idea of how to do it now. it didnt take very long at all.v-digit said:aight. i need to order one of them gold springs for my sherman jumper. was it hard to switch them? did you do it yourself?
yes change them. Part 343-1648 1 x 12 Goldv-digit said:and just to be completely retarded - i simply order the extact spring that comes up when i click on the gold spring link? i dont have to change dimesions, right?
