Too much molly's, not enough fall guy's!
Its a repost, but if Satori can do it, so can I !

Been on a USB for a long while now. Thought I would post up my ride.
Beautiful bike but more importantly beautiful ledges in that park... where are you located?

hey, it's TWENTY-FOUR INCHES of love, man! Always room for some quality wheels of steel! Fall Guys are on point too.
I really dig your bare bones shaved 4X. All black. My kind of fork! I don't remember reposting mine here though? did I? ...still waiting on my spokes and nips so I can lace up that alienation rim to the marmoset, then I'll post a few more photos after that too if I get a chance, haha!
JJJKKK, slick set-up.
From your top photo there it almost looks like you drilled a hole in your dropout too, but I think that's just reflection from the top of the chainstay weld.
How are you liking those NPJ tires? I've been curious about them for awhile now, never tried one.
...and what brake set-up did you have that bunked out on you?
...hey Leethal, just saw the new USB blog action, very cool! Thanks for posting up a couple pics of my ol' Molly classic hot-rod.
Thanks for the words on the blog.. hopefully we can start getting frequent comments...
i now want a 24'er asouifiusadfiu sometime
BikeSATORI, here's a pic of the dropout, no holes 
Can't say anything about the NPJ's really as I've had chance to ride em only once! They roll a bit better than Kiniptions which I had on last summer...
About the brake.. wellll I think the problem is me as this is the very first mechanic brake for me ever! It squeeks like hell, I may try it on for my Sunday next as it has chrome rim perhaps that helps.
I've slightly sanded pads and they were angled like the front of the pad makes contact first but brake was still loud.
The setup was Fly brakes w/ KoolStop/Odsy Linear/Odsy lever...
That grey Molly and grey Tonic are so nice.. reminds me about my good ol' grey Union-Street.

Toe in will kill the squeel... new Kool Stops often do squeel no matter what but will stop shortly. Also some of us like loud brakes...
I love this thread.....
What would the deucequad riders thing of a 24 specific DS frame.. have a concentric pivot to allow for SS, but very stiff suspension, total build weight w/ ss/rear brake/gl/float or similar airshock around #33?

=fun for the general hooligan shenanigans.
Not so streetworthy, but probably still be a blast for ripping around. Might be nicer at 29lb though, haha.
Arrow Racing had one for awhile too, for DS racing, but never rode it.
Don't really think there would be a market for one though, I'm mean the market for 26" bikes just like that is barely showing itself at the moment, not to mention, it's hard enough for most people to afford a 24" dedicated hardtail at this point.
i like the idea too, it would be cool to ride, but with the limited funds i have i would probably never buy one unless if i became rich enough to buy infinite bikes. It wouldn't have any outstanding advantages of riding characteristics over a 24 hardtail or a 26 slalom with squish, other than a fun factor.
Im in the market for a 24, and ive pretty much made up my mind on a fall guy, but i dont know if i should get a molly. Im coming from a STP so it shouldnt be totally different, but i want something a bit smaller more flickable. I assumr 24's are good for dirt jumping not just street, am i right? Does anyone run a chrome rear rim?
I'm going to be getting Price's pinscher. I think I want to go with 24's and a rigid like bcd's.
I'll get a DMR trailblade... I'm not sure what wheels to go with. I have an extra juicy brake, but maybe I should go with a rim brake?

...bit of trials influence with the knifen and hydro rim brake... very nice, looks fun.steel is reel
You know, I just picked up an old Magura hydro rim brake, with a very sweet retro cnc'ed Kooka lever... I was thinking about trying to make some brackets to mount it onto my Molly frame, might be a pretty trick little mod even though I really don't need the extra stopping power, but I've never seen one like that.
I can't see it 
correct! I bought the knifen when I was still riding trials only (should be about 3-4 years ago now). verry very strong. I cracked a frame, elbow and wrist, all from false landings on the front wheel, but the knifen is still there without any harm done to it.
same with the maggies, only that the ones I had back then were leaking so I got a new one, much better btw.
really? anybode else having probs? or are you banned from wordpress or so?
Yeahh its not working. booo haha. Sounds like a SICK ride!!
I love them deuce quads!

i wish they'd do a redesign on the caliper. they're sweet, but hella bulky. ran a set with yellow plazmatics and ground rims on my old mod BITD and they locked up. brake bridge for frame flex too. crazy powerful brakes
I'm looking to build a bike in this style and it seems that in the 22" frame range the Tonic Fall Guy is the frame to get. The price is just to high for me though. Was wondering if there are any comparable frames for less or maybe someplace to buy the FG at a lower price. I've seen them for $600+. I like urban street riding and want to build a nice quality bike. Thanks for any help.
the latest versions are already a lot less bulky than the originals.
I always had a frame flex problem, but this is solved with the NS frame, you can't bend those massive cromo plates.
AYE!! It works for me now Looks awesome.
Looks awesome.
The Satellite takes shape...
I'll throw this in for the seat-slam fashion police: "Slam that seat and it will look much better".
But really, that frame looks great.
2008 DK General Lee with upgrades.
Haven't cut the post yet :biggrin:
looks good. what do you use it for? I once rode a bmx with those wheels and it was super flexy, not suitable for street/dirt imo.
just an update pic..
Nice pic DH hope the bike is treating you well....
are there any online places to pick up some 24" KHE's? didnt want to start a new thread just for that.....
I use it to dirtjump. Did you ride H spoke skyways or T spoke? I've heard lots of people talk about the T spokes being floppy. The H spokes are stiff enough for me. They have a little give, but not enough to bother me. Rider weight probably matters too. A friend of mine has these same wheels and he likes em too.
