That, my friends, is how you build a bike! Wow, great job Espen! REALLY great job!

 

[Incubus]

Soooooo sexy.

 

[Toshi]

looks like this bike was a clean slate effort at picking out the best parts in each area.

 

[mack]

that is the nicest bike ive ever seen! uhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhu...

 

[dexterq20]

Truly a beautiful ride. I love the all-black look. That's definitely the nicest bike I've seen posted on here. :love:

EDIT: Hey Espen, is it hard to get high-end bike gear in Norway? Or did you just pay out the ass for shipping?

 

[Fulton]

i gotta agree with mack, that is one of the nicest bikes i've ever seen as well!

Well thought-out bike! Great job.

Have you ever tried the steel spring on the avalanche so that you could give a small comparison between the two?
Did you pay:

550$ (shock) + 199$ (ti. spring)

or

550$ - ??$ (steel spring) + 199$ ?

Can't find it on the site..

 

[llkoolkeg]

Holy pimpslap, Batman! Nice ride!

 

[Espen]

The bike weights in at 41.6 pounds. This is with (light) tubes in the tires and the 2.7 Maxxis up front.

I have now swiched to 2.5 HR front, and try out some latex and mount the HR's directly.

Sub 41 is on the way!!!

The frame is bought from the only Turner distributor in Norway.
I got a good deal on the frame.

The other stuff are from my 01 DHR or bought from webshops in UK or US.
We got 24% VAT on everything from US and only a few % on the goods from UK.


Norwegial currecy is wery strong these days, so its ok.

Aaaahhhhhhh.......what a ride!!!

Espen,

Truly the nicest downhill bike I have ever seen. I bet that thing is SUPER fast.

One word.......Clean!

Have Fun!

Just need to get a black 105 mech, levers anodised black, some marker pen on the tyre writing, and you'll be all set for some serious stealthy ninja DHing

Seriously, sweet bike, almost jealous
