My old BREW converted to a SS rig. Thanks to Loco for the tensioner rear wheel and help.



My new Jamis Dakar Comp. I purchased the frame around Christmas and have been acquiring parts over the last 6 months. Still wouldn't be done witout some parts help from Loco.



Should come in less than $1500 when totally finished:
Jamis Dakar Frame w/float R
120 mm Marathon S(coil)
Full XT
Magura Louise Brakes
Thomson post and stem, Titec bars
Wheels will be Hope bulbs w/519(r) and 317(f) -- current rear off the Banshee and front from Loco.

Nice bikes! Is that a Surly Singulator on the brew? could it push the chain up to provide tension instead of down? I think I read on mtbr.com where that's a more effective way to run the Singulator.

Hot bikes Wumpus!!!

Loco only had a down spring left. Going to try it and if doesn't work I'll by a new singulator.
