complete...can kind of make out my 2 silver spokes per wheel:

wheel, brake, derailleur, and pedal:

stem, fork, bar, headset:

build notes:

not sure if i'm going to dig the Fun Bolts. might call up King and get some of the QR adapters.

fork feels badass.

rims built up faster than any rim i've built up before.

DOC + Saints + LG-1 = 2 spacers on non-driveside, none on driveside and none of the black or gold spacers between the backplace and the ISCG adapter plate.

hoses need to be cut.

new ODI end plugs look stupid. and i lost one during my first ride after a crash.

the first geared bike i have built from the ground up with all new components.

Looks good, Dustin.

 

[skinny mike]

those hubs make me want to do things that are illegal in southern states.

 

[blue]

You can get away with a single ring for XC thurr? lucky

 

[robdamanii]

Looks pretty sick.

 

[OGRipper]

Wow that is purty...enjoy.

 

[TreeSaw]

Mmmm...pretty Now, go and get it dirty!

 

[jimmydean]

That does look nice. I like the looks of the DOC and would say that is about the only hardtail I have had the hots for in a long time. If I could afford a third bike, that would be it.

here's the grand pumba. after trying 4 different methods to keep that guy secure, and safe, i found the perfect means. $8 case from Container Store, $7 corrugated foam, and voila.

when closed, i can shake it and nothing rattles. i don't know if the foam is blue or purple, but it was the only color The Container Store had.

i have a tiny case that will house two 5mm hexes, a 3/32 hex, a toothbrush, an awl, and a T25 Torx.

I was about to inform you that your bike is dialed, but then I saw the eggbeaters.

I hope you have a set of flats to swap out.

 

[-dustin]

yes i do. Empire edition Jim Cs. thinking about getting some Mallets, but can't justify.

 

[dump]

congrats on the ride... looks nice.

 

[jdcamb]

Nice build. We expect a "dirty" pic shortly.

 

[-dustin]

Why do you have 2 Silver spokes per wheel ? Mine do too, but it wasn't by design.

 

[-dustin]

that's my signature. silver nipples, black spokes, 2 silver spokes outside the valve stem.

 

[Rip]

Nice.
