so hot - would love to try one of those. congrats!
post your 2010 rides!
- Thread starter FOXROX
- Start date
And negates any benefit of the slack head angle. Still better off going with a large and running a 30mm stem.
I am 1,79 , so both M or Large size could be a good option....
I talked with Cesar Rojo and he suggeted me a Medium and I believe that for me is the correct choice because with the cups on -1 degrees (62°) and the chainstay on 440mm, the wheellbase is exactly 1185mm that is a very spot on geometry in my opinion.
With the large frame with the same setup probabily the wheelbase is about 3 centimeters longer, about 1215 cm that is too much for me.
The bars on the photo is rolled forwards because I taked the picture when I have just installed it on the bike. That is not the correct riding position...is just a photo.
Instead for the saddle, In this seasons I want to try to ride the saddle quite height because, with the seat angle of 73,5° is naturally to do a off of the seat (is right???) and with the seat quite tall is very good on the pedalled parts of the race.
If anyone is interested the bike is 15,8 kg (about 35 lbs) without that crappy Race face stem( showed in the pictures), but with the original 50mm direct mounted.
With my Hope ProII Mavic 721 Maxxis High Roller 2,5 dual ply , and Maxxis Freeride tubes the weight is about 16,4 Kg.
I have done only three rides with it, but I believe that the bike is absolutely amazing.
Exceeds by far my previos bikes: Kona Stab Primo 2003, Demo 8 2005, V10 2006 and Commencal Supreme dh2007.
The stability, the grip and the facility on the curves are something never tried, and with that weight it pedals and sprints like my Commencal meta 666.
I apologize to all for my poor grammar......
Best regards

Love the Mond and the BOS equipped Morewood!
Thanks to my dog's impending cataract surgery, I'll be soldiering through another season on ol'faithful...
Only "new" item is a used Boxxer in lieu of a Totem (well, that and a new bottle of Bushmills)
Low BB's and 63* HA's are so last year...

Did anybody else read Neuros' last post with a heavy Italian accent?Try,she's a very fun,no?! 
What's on the bottom of the DT?My ride for 2010 :
Nice build. Gotta ask, why is the wash machine in the kitchen and where is the dryer?
Are those green mkIII's? Where d'you get them? Bike looks amazing btwSolid Mission 9, 2010 Teams custom graphics, vivid 5.1 with Custom graphics and Obtanium etc etc
probably some protection from rocks
cant you read? maybe not? but if you looked at ronins location it would say France...
and what do you need that frame for? diablo?? yeaaaa riiiiiiight that bike isnt going to make you any faster, most likely slower.
Guess he needs a glory right?cant you read? maybe not? but if you looked at ronins location it would say France...

Here's an updated picture of my bike with the new Boxxer WC, truvativ direct stem, and Gravity 777 flat bars. It's 38.9 on the scale, and I have no plans of lightening the build.
Custom
Ti Axles as well, but im after some Canfield Crampons now if someone wants to swap
just build her up, new to me frame, swapped parts from my last whip. stoked
Look this is the internet you should probably leave then
I like your tool box, sweet set up.Here's an updated picture of my bike with the new Boxxer WC, truvativ direct stem, and Gravity 777 flat bars. It's 38.9 on the scale, and I have no plans of lightening the build.
he he - yeah I'm sure it's built on the limits of "durability". but I'm sure it would perfect for my e-riding use
never said that smartass, im just saying that bike is to much for diablo. the HA is to slack on it for diablo riding.Guess he needs a glory right?
the headangle can go from 61 to 65
but 65 is to steep, knowing diablo kids they would have it set at 61 at all times.
i run 65, im a diablo kid arent i?
so maybe 63? the summum is very adjustable
