Looks nice. I llike the the white frame & camo fork combo. Is it all new parts? Is that seat angle supposed to be so choppered? Do you have a 5" travel fork on there?

 

[sama1ter]

seat tube angle is supposed to be like that. 5" fork=yes, with 4.5" in the back. the actual Seat angle is for comfort and gettinb behind the seat...its not that raked....

Is that Sanjay's old bike? I recognize the black warranty seatstay...

You must really be getting used to riding small bikes.

Is it just my eyes, or is that headangle choppered out as well?

yeah its sanjays old bike...and this bike actually feels stretched out compared to the bmxtb...i dunno..i am used to it i guess.

its not that chopped...its in the steep position.

 

[chicodude]

Looks like a kick ass DS or MTX bike............

 

[lovebunny]

well it is meant for that

Can you rotate your chianguide clockwise anymore? If not, you might want to pick up one of the M1 and Tazer ISCG adapter plates.

Have fun with your new ride!!

[sama1ter]

actually, i dont think the chainguide is set up correct at all...its used in the iscg, so it cant be rotated, then it amkes ALOT of noise(i run an e13 on my DH bike, and love it, and ran this guide on my hardtail before this, i dunno why this is giving me so muchproblem. IT even gets chainsuck when you pedal backwards sometimes.. but theb ash lines up perfectly at the bottem(like the instructions say) and for a while, i think it was even skipping on that pullly wheel. i dunno, if you could help that would be great...i'll email you this repsonse incase you dont see it.

 

[jon-boy]

That does look like a ripping little bike though.
Good luck with getting the E13 tweaked.

 

[seismic]

The bike looks great !!

The ISCG tabs on your frame are not in the right place. Check out the link that I posted before. Thats describes your issue, and the solution to your issue. e-mail support@e13components.com if you have any questions.

Thanks

i got a chub

Slack attack!
I used to have one of those.Super fun bike-Try to set the fork up at 100mm so it will actually steer in flat berms.

 

[sama1ter]

i hoenstly dont find the head tube that slack actually..fits nicely

Sam, that is how I had the Tazer set-up for this last Big Bear National. It worked so good with the Firefly up front. For mountain cross and jumping, I liked it better with the lighter, shorter 80mm Black up front. I kinda wish I would have held onto that frame now that Big Bear is closed to big bikes.
How much does it weigh in at?

 

[sama1ter]

yeah, im stoked for bigbear...i think i'm gonna set it up with the pyslo and see how that works... crank it down to 4" and see how it does... it weighs somethin like 34lbs, with dh tubes/tires, and pretty heavy parts.

 

[dv8cam]

Yeah that head angle looks like it is about 67. The 80 would probably work nicely.
