So, I know a lot of you wont dig this build, but I had ton of fun building it, and its a ball to ride.
I sold my full squish DH rig a couple years ago, and decided Id start riding again this year, but wanted a hardtail, so I built this up over the last 2 weeks.
-The frame is a Soul Cycles Roscoe that i bought about 4 or 5 years ago and never finished building. I modified the rear triangle for more DH friendly geo(not perfect, but better). Ended up with 13.7 BB height and 63.5 HA.
-White Bros. Groove fork
-Answer direct mount stem
-RaceFace Atlas 31" bars
-Atom Lab Pimplite wheel set
-Kenda Small Block 8's
-Hope EVO M4 brakes
-Gusset rotors
-TSC 4130 175mm cranks
-TSC Pivotal seat post
-Tioga D-Spyder saddle
-Odyssey JCPC pedals
-Profile Chain tugs
-ESI grips
Right now the gearing is 30/14, and seems to work for fast-ish runs, will run 30/15 for more pedally courses.
It ended up at 36.2 lbs, and I've nicknamed it the Masochist, for obvious reasons.
