About to build up a mini dh bike and looking at quality parts to stick on it.
My main concerns are rims, brakes and cranks
At about 6'3" and 215lbs dry weight I am pretty hard on stuff.
I am trying to create something that will last, but i am not trying to go overkill.
Looking for any information about atom lab pimp rims, whatever rims will be laced to kings so they should last. Any other similar rims info would be equally appreciated.
Brakes are a toss up between elixer's, code 5's and xt's probably. i don't see the reason to go to saints for this bike. only reason code 5 is on there is because i can get them new cheap at my shop.
Pretty sure i will be getting hand me down saint cranks. Should be good enough.
mini dh, kinda heavy, not such a smooth rider. what is enough but not overkill
