I had to bring the vinyl machine down to Mass. today to get a new printhead so I thought that I would pay Philip a visit at E13.

Left with a few goods to include 2 of these:

This one will be going on the Yeti 4X and the other one will be going on the Yeti DJ, an 09 LG1 will be on the way for the 303R in a few weeks.

I will get a few scale shots and better pics in a few days and a report in a week or two. The look alone is amazing and the weight comparison from '08 to '09 is very impressive.

thats so hot ... it almost make me wish i didn't run a brooklyn..lol almost

 

[PhilipW]

Hey Rufus,
You might even be able to get away with the Narrow position on the 4x...but see how it mounts up in the Regular position first. The backplate should have a really tight fit to it. And remember...use regular size chainring bolts.

We ended up street riding out in the parking lot after you left...the Turbocharger is a godsend.

Cheers,
philip @ e*thirteen

Give me an hour to get home and get it on the bike. Jeez.

That bike would look a lot nicer with some white team stickers!!!

 

[dhmike]

sweet e-13 rufus !

 

[Transcend]

If only there were enough hours in the day!

 

[RUFUS]

I have all the time in the world, email me again and we can get it started for you.

 

[Gunner]

dang, last time I went to the e.13 office all I got were some stickers.

 

[RUFUS]

Happy Fraser???

Don't mind the wheels, still waiting on the SX wheelset.

 

[stinkyboy]

Thanks for the heads up. I was gonna order an old one for the Bullit, but this will do nicely:

White Pike? Is that your doing?

Yes, the white pike and the decals are my doing. I hated the gray.

The black SRS looks so sick!

 

[davep]

Which one of you guys put their bash on incorrectly (clocked 90*).


I think the Frasier has his on is the correct way???

 

[PhilipW]

Davep, good call.

Ryan, your bash should be rotated 90 degrees.

One of the logos should be hidden...we designed the bash so that once you (eventually) mash up one side you can flip it and use the other. I'll get a good pic of my black SRS later for you guys so you can see the options.

The LG1+ is very close to shipping, we're just waiting for a last shipment of hardware and ironing out some final details.

Keep an eye out...

Cheers,

I am blaming Fraser for making me install it so quickly.

It is fixed, thanks for the heads up guys

Can't go too crazy with the white bits...

 

[KavuRider]

That's going to look great Stinky!
Going single-ring huh?

I just ordered a seafoam SRS for the Karpiel. Almost back in action.

$160 at Cactus installed. Riding down there sunday (Let me know if you wanna get a few miles in). I saw them at Go-Ride for $120 after I'd ordered.

Right on. I might take you up on that.

It has sparkle gold paint on it.
It has already crossed the threshold of "too much".

 

[stinkyboy]

Daddy likey!

 

[KavuRider]

It would be cooler if it was seafoam.

 

[adam12]

Will there be a DRS+ ? I am about to pull the trigger on a dual ring guide setup and will sit tight if there will be a DRS+ setup

thanks

And remember...use regular size chainring bolts.

Really? Because I just tried to put a Turbocharger on a pair of XT cranks today, and the Shimano chainring bolts were barely long enough. The bolts would thread on, but only about 2 threads were actually engaged. Seemed pretty sketchy, but luckily I was able to dig up some longer bolts that threaded in completely. What's the deal?

On another note, I read HERE that the Turbocharger will work with the DRS guide. Will it also work with my '06 SRS?

i'm still running my 2001 Evil SGS guide... what will be the weight savings if i switch over to one of these new models?

 

[amishmatt]

Mounted up my Turbocharger to my Hone cranks the other day, no problem with the standard chainring bolts.

Depending on what size bash you have...probably in the area of 300+ grams. Those 44T Evil guards can take an insane amount of punishment...and they weigh a good bit more than our Turbocharger.
