So I wanted to build up a new DJ bike on a budget. Using funds from my bottlerocket after lift service season is over. Well the br is still in the apt and the new DJ parts are coming in!! As I started putting things together the DJ quickly went form used parts and made in asia frame has turned into:
Frame: nemesis project secret agent minty green
fork: nem tuned- 08 DJ1
stem:nem pro black
bars: nem pro bars(yeah i like what Brad is doing over there)
seatpost:thompson
saddle: wtb rocket v stealth
headset: hope-red
clamp: hope-red
der: shimano xt shadow(772)
shifter: shimano xtr (990)
crank/bb:Truvativ Holzfeller-OCT 2.2 Crankset 170mm
brake: avid juicy ultimates 160mm
chain: shimano xtr (7701)
cassette: shimano ultegra(sram one pictured is for another bike)
tires: halo twin rail
grips: oury(or shadows havnte decided yet)
pedals: fly rubens-white
wheels: currently outlaws cuz i havnt decided what i want to do yet.
bar plugs-primo
I'm impatiently waiting on my frame and fork so in the mean time ill kill time posting
I will be sure to post of build pics when my frame shows up along with weights along the way. Should be a pretty light build, even with those wheels!
Inital thought on stuff so far, Im giving the halos a shot cuz they are pretty light but the thin sideways is a bit of a concern so car. And the brake lever may just end up on another bike, i really justt got the brake cuz i wanted all black and thought they were freakin hotness, After I dump the bike a few times i may want a better lever option. Its also my first time running shimano in a long while, I have been a bit disappointed with sram's progression and failure to make improvements(mainly poor der. pivot and hangers junction)
first parts to show up:
