Nice parts spec for sure. What's the retail on that bike?

 

[stubby]

Im not sure Ill check.
The demo is for sale too, It got holzfeller 06 bars and stem, and a boxxer 06 team or a forty rc2, new mags or ecs, and sram x6 06

 

[Kntr]

Breaks: ECs or Mags (trying both out)
Its Brakes.


Nice build.

 

[stubby]

yeah but mags have a bigger resivior so they are prolly better for racing.

 

[stubby]

does anyone know why my swinger rebound is soooooooo slow?

 

[SuboptimusPrime]

^^^

That's just the way swingers and 5ths are...and why my bike now has a dhx.

That's so wrong. Mine worked fine because it was valved correctly. My buddy's came mis-valved so his was slow.

 

[blue]

My Swinger rebounds fine, but you can tune it to go waaaaay slooooow.

Your parents pay for that?

 

[krustydude]

Sick build. Why did you go with a swinger instead of a revox?

 

[Alpha Kenny Body]

Your parents pay for that?

I think he said his sponsor gave it to him...am i right?

 

[frznnomad]

yeh like we said before his parents paid for it. lol. sorry stub i had to man. lol. build is well sick for the frame and well if you like it man than you like it who give a rats ass what we have to say.

...of your mom.

You should have brought that to Massanutten this weekend.

 

[DHracer1067]

What's the standover clearance on that thing. It looks super high.

 

[stubby]

yeah right now its got a prety high standover, but you can adjust the standover, bb height, and travel, im thinking 7 or 8 dont really need 9, lowest bb height and standover, and drop my forty to 7.5.

 

[jimengdh]

very nice bike,love it

 

[AlmostHeaven]

didnt you JUST buy a brand new demo 9?

although i've switched bikes fairly quick before after RIDING them....shouldnt you have ridden the Demo before buying a new one? haha.

 

[AlmostHeaven]

clear your PMS!

also, what do you want for that holzfeller handlebar? i'm looking for a 28" bar so if it is send me a message with a price.

 

[stubby]

cleared my pms, trying to sell the bars w the demo, but if i decide to part out ill decide.

 

[stubby]

I think Im gonna remove the floating brake, and get that swinger re valved for my bike if i dont switch the shock out, it isnt set up for chit, the rebound is so slow, and it dosent use much of the travel, im also gonna play with the bb and head angle settings today and ill take some pics in diff positions. The bike corners really well i was so suprised it takes tight berms really well, and is nimble for quick flat corners.

 

[biker3]

Will the DHX from your demo not fit? The construction of the swing arm and the standover look interesting.

 

[stubby]

the swingarm itself was designed by the same person who designed the santa cruz super eight along with intense and haro.

 

[stubby]

my demo has a 4 way, the forty will most likely sell with the demo, so ill put a boxxer wc on it.
i was thinking about a8.75 dhx or ccdb to lower it out, it sits pretty high, I just spend 3 hours figuring out how to adjust the bb height, it lowers it out quite a bit. i am running a 350# swinger 6 way and the rear end feels dead, i cant feel the trail but i like a responsive feel from my rear end, so im just gonna sell the swinger or get it re valved, the rebound feels soo slow and its set all the way.
on the other hand, the bike handles great, it jumps well as well, much better than the demo. just need to figure out how to set the bike up right. The new holzfeller cranks are the mutts nutts. I love the crank bros mallet cs took a while for me to get used to the clip in, a much more forward feel than shimanos, but they hold really nice and dont clog w mud. the xo stuff is TITS. I love it, and the hell caminos have more power than most people think. I just got a fresh order of tires in so that should help grip wise. The hubs that come on the bike are excellent quality, very "Clicky" sound, which is tits. I reccomend putting a different seat post collar on the stock one is a pain in the bollocks to adjust and it slips like pam ans cooch. the haro pivit grips are nice too.
I havent felt the boxxer yet but i may if i decide to keep it.It comes with a 36t chainring up front, wich is pretty spot on for east coast suff, 36, 38, is what i rotate between, the 44 i had last year was death. Thats my mini components review ill post more later.

 

[motomike]

I can't believe you're selling your Demo.

 

[Sherpa]

I can't believe you're selling your Demo.

But he's sponsored now.

 

[DHracer1067]

It seems pretty dumb to get rid of a pimp demo for one of those haro's

 

[motomike]

But he's sponsored now.

I just can't understand the justification for dumping a brand new Demo for a damn 357, when the demo probably hasn't even seen any DH trails at all.

But, but, he can say he's sponsored and stuff. He's a real racer 'brah' now.

I'd rather pay 2x full retail for a Demo, Morewood, SC, etc than ride that rat trap excuse of a bike.

 

[stubby]

Im telling you I DONT CARE ABOUT SPONSORS , QUIT SAYIN SH!T LIKE THAT, I CHOSE TO DO THIS SO QUIT TELLING ME WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT ME SeLLING MY DEMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Cash-Money]

probably a good thing you don't care about sponsors... didn't your friend say your mom is "sponsoring" you this season?

 

[stubby]

im a factory Mommy and Daddy Rider.

 

[blue]

I'm so confused...you have a choice between a 357 and a Demo 9 FREE, and you get a 357?

It's like being offered an Enzo or a Miata for free and taking the Miata...

 

[stubby]

this isnt abou tmy demo its about my 357 stfu about my damn demo!

 

[Mizzle]

Ride what you wan to ride, and have fun.

All these people are hating and Cody Warren seems to be doing just fine on it.

Congrats,
John

 

[stubby]

yeah cody beat all iron horses, turners, demos on this "rat trap"
