Well, I finished up my 303r dh build. Below is a quick run down of the build.

A huge thanks to the crew at Go-Ride for hooking me up with all the goodies and helping me finish up the build Thurs. If you are ever in SLC stop by Go-Ride and check it out. Great bunch of guys and they stock all the good stuff! Can't tell you how nice it is to have a local shop that carries top of the line down hill stuff. I plan on picking up an RC 4 and Ti spring next payday and I would like to build up another wheelset or two for some different tire combos in the next couple of months but that's pretty much it. Anyway, here are a couple of quick pics. Oh, and the all up weight came to 39lbs on the Go-Ride scale. Not bad for not doing a weight weenie build! Scott from Go-Ride should have his finished up by next week and his should be a bit lighter with the 2010 boxxer WC's, Gravity Light cranks, and possibly a bit lighter wheelset.

Great looking build, congrats on the new ride. Not a bad weight either. I gave the parts a little bit of thought and got it to 37.2lbs so it is easy to build this bike up light.

I love my team colors but the black is beautiful.

Have fun!

I was actually gonna do the team colors myself but they just had a complete one in the shop in team. Being the impatient person that I am I just bought the black because they had them on the wall. Lol.

What are you going to do with the other Fox 40?

 

[ekripper]

You mean the DHX 5? I'm keeping the 40 but replacing the DHX with the RC 4.

My next for sure.

Anyone thought of drilling a hole length wise down the rail to save some weight?

I'm not going to say that is a dumb idea but it is a dumb idea.

Buy a different part that saves some weight instead of hollowing out the rail and potentially weakening the rail so much that it cracks, shatters, etc and you are SCREWED.

Wait a season and Yeti might have the hollow rail that they have on the WC teams bikes for sale.

Yep, that hole should mean the world cup title will be his for sure. Clearly that rail weight is whats holding him back.


Nice bike man, looks great.
