They came with the frame kit. I'll let you know how they work out.
nice build! I bet those cranks arent more than 175mm, its just the dual 24s that make em look so long.
Awesome looking bike you got there!
I hit the peddles on the Hitman more then the FQ. Just screwing around on the street. Haven't hit the FQ's peddles yet.
Sweet!!!!! Those cranks are 170s if I remember correctly. Might be the picture angle too... Hows she running for ya? Shifting alll good and dandy?

Tony you riding the creek this year. I rode there with you last year. Silver RL
Nice bikes So you finally got the hitman. Nice. Did you sell the BigLink and TMX

Sold the TMX sitting on the Big Link. Tuff to part with. I'm living in San Diego now but I hope to make the Creek and Plattekill a few times this year. While I was typing I rembered who you are. We both showed up solo and hooked up for the day. I love this sport. Hoping to go to Chutes and Ladders on Oregon some freeride event in 2 weeks.
You got it. We were both solo and had a awsome day of riding. Maybe I will see you at the creek again. I broke my foot not to long after the ride so sat out much of the season.
How is the hitman different than the big link. I was thinking of getting one, once Doc starts taking orders

It's lighter, shorter TT, and I feel it takes small chatter bumps better at low speed, my big 1 was harsh on smaller stuff. Loving it.
nice to know. Just need the word from Doc when he is taking orders
What the hell are you gonna put up front? A MTN-10?sikocycles said:
What can the Hitman be considered as? A pure DH machine?
i'd see it as more of a big-hit play bike - ie, a modern version of the tmx.Horrendous Hack said:
No I would put my DHF8 on it. And put a fox or a boxxer on the RL.
The hitman is a replacement for the TMX/biglink. Same travel as the Biglink and a inch more than the RL.

me to. i think im running a fox or boxxer too next year or maybe late this year if i find a deal.sikocycles said:
Ohhh I got a job working in a shop on some Saturdays so I pick one up soon
Well I'm turning in to a bit of a hucker, I'll look in to buying one in the future. Not really anywhere here to use that amount of travel but it would be good fun.

As it is obvious from other DH frames it is not necessary to have the same amount of travel in front and rear.....
No but I just thought it might feel a bit unusual.seismic said:As it is obvious from other DH frames it is not necessary to have the same amount of travel in front and rear.....
Exactly. I run a steel hardtail with a 6" forkseismic said:As it is obvious from other DH frames it is not necessary to have the same amount of travel in front and rear.....
:dancing:Mmm point seen- I ride a steel hardtail with a 7" fork.Shortbus said:Exactly. I run a steel hardtail with a 6" fork

Fair enough......but since a MTN-10 is a quite heavy fork he might want to go for something lighter.......(not to say that I wouldnt go for a MTN-10 if I had the chance :love: )
i think that rings true for all of usseismic said:
Thing is, I think forks from Marzocchi, Manitou and the like all look too small for the big bikes, its like they need an Avalance on the front.
Who needs lightness anyway? My HT weighs over 40lbs. lol.
My park is just around 46 lbs. And I ride her XC. BEEF CAAAKE!Horrendous Hack said:i think that rings true for all of us

Wussy
i'm just kidding

I have a MTN 8 for sale if anyone is interested. I think I bottomed it 1 time. An amazing fork I never messed with it and it always rode the same.
How the hell did you achieve that?Tonycalves said:
Put it in the Buy&Sell and I may check back in a couple of months if no one buys it.
buy it direct
