Help with some burly hardtail pics...

[Li'l Dave]

Thanks Monkeyboy, I love the thing. Its a bit on the hefty side, but no matter... it is really stable, easy to jump, and real easy to bunny hop and manual.

[monkeyboy424]

yah it is cool.....

[shifty S]

less chit chat, more wheels.
lighter picture of my bike, better showing pink metallic bars and new sherman firefly

ugly johnG and morphine/trixxxy beast sans brakes...laughing because of his own pelvic thrusts in the direction of the camera...he kills himself with jokes like that:p

[shifty S]

finally, friend jack's 250 sans seat/post, still waiting for it, and aircorps wheels on the way....too bad the shirt didnt save him from the top tube on an accidental superman

[shifty S]

another, i cant seem to stop
built this up at a friends house from parts lying around his basement, including the xt cranks, weighs less than nothing, and is the most working frame (out of no less than 10) in his basement

[LostBoyScout]

that log behind the morphine would be a LOT of fun to ride along. love it!

[shifty S]

one end of it has a dirt ramp up to it, all the branches have been cut off cleanly, and the other end curves into the ground

my newest of the two "burly hardtails" i own

http://media.dropmachine.com/data/850imp3.JPG

[Arutha]

A few years ago I said I would never buy a hardtail, but damn this thread! You guys are making me spend money. Soon I will be able to put a pic up of my new HT.

Nice bikes!

NICE ride. I love the minuteman frames...but wish they came with vertical drops. Love the Shiver, too...that's what's going on my HT when it gets here.

Is there any difference between the Doubletrack and the Intense rim? Welds vs pins, etc? Where can you get doubletracks besides OEM?

Thanks. It would be nice to have a vertical dropout option. Oh well, I run a bolt on axle so my wheel stays on tightly.

The Shiver runs really well. It's the best single crown fork I've ever ridden. I never thought a fork could make so much difference. It makes the bike feel so nimble and quick.

There are diffs between the Doubletrack and Intense Mag 30. The Doubletrack is a pinned rim where as the Mag30 is a welded rim. In terms of durability, I honestly can't tell the difference.

In Vancouver Canada, DoubleTracks are very common and available as a non OEM part at almost any bike store.

now now, that was unnesscary! Last time we did this we got told off MM, we had better stop before we get spanked.

[MisterMental]

we did?
oops

[stringcheese]

The most elegant bikes in this thread so far are that independent fabrication one and the blue on one's.




Here's mine that I just finished building last week. I'm very cheap, so I dug up the best deal I could. I got all this brand new for $740.

[PGKelly]

It's a 6" Junior T. I absolutely hated it at first, but it's really grown on me. I have recovered my bunnyhops to their full height and only nosedived off a few drops before I got used to the extra weight. As shown it weighs in at a slightly hefty 34.75 pounds. I had it built with a Manitou Black and some XC tires and it weighed 31.25 pounds, but I quickly lunched the internals on that fork (after one goddamn day of riding I destroyed the dampers so it was just unrestricted motion) and the XC tires had no grip on wallrides, so they had to go. This thing is fantastic! After I got it I cancelled the DH bike I had on order, just because I couldn't see riding it after this. So much fun! It's not really trail-ride-able, but for urban, park, and even some SSHTDH I am very, very happy. Pedal grinds, sprocket stalls, disasters, wallrides, general havoc, this is wonderful.

(full array of pics, most too big or crappy to post here, can be found at http://asteele.no-ip.org/my%20pictures/2003-01-13)

[MisterMental]

thats really light
when i had me bommer built up with stratos forks it was a heavy 39ish lbs

[Shmoe]

hmmmm, my bommer broke kind of like yours;)

[ELECTRIC WIZARD]

Yeah, you should be glad your bike weighs 34.5 with jnrs, I had a 24-7 with 5" jnrs which weighed over 40 and my gimp as it is now weighs around 40.

[Unreal]

Hum...

And another...

This guy’s been great fun lately. It’s a 2002 Gimp that I built up as a shop demo bike. Features a Marzocchi EXR fork, Pig headset, Reetard stem, Goliath bars, ODI grips, Planet X Saddle and post, Veulta V brakes, Jagwire ‘stainless’ cable housings, Planet X singlespeed cassette disk rear hub, Sun Mammoth 26” rims, black doublebutted DT spokes, Tioga 2.3 DH tires, FSA X-drive cranks, FSA Grinder Chainwheel, KMC stainless steel chain, and Atomic chaintugs. Give me a call if you’re in the Seattle area and want to see what she’s all about. $1300 takers her home with ya :-)

it's not derogitiory, it's just that most people are more comfortible w/ the left foot forward, hense it being regular. than MTBR's adopted some snowboard terminology and called right foot rides goofy riders. snowboarders have the same naming system, it's not goffy for you but overall it's for most.

i'm like that cept reversed.... i ride right foot forwards, but snowboarded (which i've done once) i have my left foot forwards. maybe it has more to do with which way your body prefers to rotate?

Its got 24-inch wheels front and rear (which makes the bike look "bigger"), but seat tube is only 13.50, so it's actually not "huge" at all.

[letoy123]

i would rather chrome but for quality there is no equal

[MisterMental]

quality as in...
comes in a brown cardboard box with no intsructions, crap bearings, non existant seals, POS lockring, crap splines on teh cups, comes with a 14mm bolt instead of a one key extractor [like DMR]

[CreeP]

maybe you're thinking of the mtb bb version, the bmx bb ver/ is hella dope:monkey:

Mmm raw reetard cranks mmm:cool:

[Shmoe]

Burly!

[MisterMental]

snap!
i did that too

[Unreal]

Yup,

Most of the Bommers out in the wild are doing just fine, but more then a small handful either folded or snapped at exactly that spot. I guess that was the result of using double butted tubing and a large downtube gusset, it ended up focusing the stresses on the thinner part of the tube. Woops!

One of the cool things about Planet X is that they’re always evolving their frames. They realized that some riders where pushing those bikes HARD, and the frames weren’t holding up, so around mid 2002 they changed the design of both the Bommer and the Gimp to use a strait gauge down tube and revised gussets. It added almost a pound to the bike if I remember right, but the new ones have absolutely no problem at that spot :-)

[MisterMental]

and riders are pushing them sooooo hard you gotta pay to get it warrantyed

[letoy123]

i cant talk though, mine is no where near done

[LostBoyScout]

hehe, I knew i'd get razzed for that, but I just slipped the fork on for a pic - I think the fact I have a 9mm front wheel in a 20mm dropout is more of a concern ;)

About the design - We all know that aluminum fatigues and isn't an ideal metal for bike frames - but, it fatigues from flexing. Thus if you build an aluminum frame that don't flex, it's gonna last a long, long time. I think the Le Toy is going to last a long, long time :D

And it's got more engineering than people give it credit too - after all, it's on it's third version, with many small changes along the way. The under-engineered and overbuilt award definitely goes to Clifcat for their Tankass ;)

[MikeD]

Originally posted by LostBoyScout

Ah, so...you have here made a truth.

MD

(I keep thinking about overbuilt and under-engineered asses now...you know, the kind that look eniticing with paint and stickers and all sorts of finish :p , but, when laid bare, show poor construction...and fail to hold up to flexing and fatigue in the long term, leaving you with a ruined mess.)

actually, to spec. this bike out as it is right now wouldn't be what i'd call a ton of coin, but not so cheap either :( i got it used, so i got a break there... new this would run over 2g easy (i think)

that seat's on this bike because the one that came with it was far too long & didn't let me x-up the bars.

it's not white... the frame's white & the orange/red of the maxxis stripe comes out light like this in the b/w shot because this bw was created heavily from the red color channel (of the 3 RGB channels).. it was created in photoshop but essentially has the same effect as shooting this scene in BW with a red filter.

as a reference, the light parts on the seat are also red and they come out as a light grey much like the tires... the tires appear lighter because they're set against the black rubber.

so if when you asked if it was photoshop - yes... but i didn't manually select the areas of the tire & brigten them, only used the red color channel as a greyscale (more or less)

This is a calculator for possible combinations for single speed w/verticle dropouts,but for my chute it didn't quite work,If I had access to lots of chainrings and cassettes I'd experiment,but instead I just made my own tensioner outa an old cantilever brake arm.

Ah grasshopper patience and you will get there:D Believe me patience is not my virtue at all.As for the PX and the Kona Chute they are still complete:eek:
My Kona Stinky is alot lighter though now;) as i have seen the light and gone over to the HT crowd.I love the HT's and riding them and the skills they build.The Chute is setup to take the place of the Stinky w/ a heavy build and a triple crown fork on it.
As for the fork well i'm kind of attached to it.Right now i have 3 Psylos(1 SL and 1 XC w/Tullio,and one XC w/QR) After getting this bike together i now have alot less spare parts somewhat.Atleast now i won't have to hang a sign out as a bike shop:D

[monkeyboy424]

what would you do if you were me?

keep the mr. t and put a z1 crown on it or sell it and use the money to buy my friends fox r for 200?

that fox just got back from a rebuild also never ridden...


oh man i am mad that i got this dual crown now, i can almost xup my poopey xc bike so i would probably beable to do it my heavy bike because of the short stem. fooey

[LostBoyScout]

My bike's still not worthy of this thread quite yet but I got some more fun parts today.. just need my wheelset pretty much now :)

Now that's a tough one.I think it's up to you as to what you feel you need;) But from past experiance myself i have seemed to always kick myself after i sold something or a bike :D Sure i needed to sell some things but there are others that i shouldn't have.
As for the Mr. T i almost had a similiar situation.I was going to sell the Stinky frame and the S-7 fork with it.Figuared heck i didn't need the S-7 for anything.Then i thought about all the bikes that i have seen with Shivers and other big hit forks on them and decided that i should keep the fork and still sell the frame;)
The S-7 had just come back from being redone when i bought it so i haven't even ridden it yet plus i have enough HT's that one of them might see the S-7 on it someday,who knows:rolleyes:
Like i said it's up to you but the Mr. T is a nice fork.I'm not sure how old it is but if you sold it then decided that you needed another big hit fork later on then you would have to go through the whole process of finding one that is affordable to you.
I would say just save up the money for your friends and keep the Mr. T.That's how i came around to having alot of parts over time,but that's just me:D

Now that's a nice setup.I like the Boxxer due mainly to that it doesn't weigh alot.I like to keep things somewhat spec'd light on a HT.Although i do have a S-7 that i could put onto mine if i wanted to:rolleyes: Yeah:D Not right now though;)

[Nd4spd]

Hey Castle and Poser what seatposts are you guys running:confused: Just curious as i have to invest in one as the one that is on the bike is aloner.
Castle i think i remember seeing your posting on your bike,maybe on Pinkbike:confused: I like the changes.I saw today in person a 99' Mr. T that i would love to own.Unfortunatly it's on the front of a Specialized ATX(hope that's the right model)I like the orange/blue on the 98'/99' Mr. T :thumb:

I'm currently running a raceface prodigy seat post. It's the longest I can find out there besides the thomson. The thomson cost a lot more though. I do have the 243 racing seatpost but it's just not long enough for any kind of extended climbing.

[LostBoyScout]

Nd4Spd, thanks yo! Yeah it will be nice to have it done and riding. The seat is sweet, looks kinda freakish but in a good way, it's really narrow so it's not the best for seating riding but I wanted something that disappears when you stand up... this is going to be good for that I think :)

On the topic of seatposts, the ROOX post looks downright meaty, I wish I had one (to match the bigness of my seat)

[MikeD]

I love Tioga seats, esp. the XLs...but the Nico models certainly have it over the regular ones. The rails are a ton lower, and a bit stronger due to their shapes, I think. The stripe is a plastic textured strip, not a print that wears off. And they come in full-kevlar, too!

[LostBoyScout]

I hear ya there.. I woulda been smart to just get a Norco Rampage or something but this way will be fun in the end :D

Choices is good. I want to run a Shiver SC later on, and with the tire clearance it has, I'll purchase a set of 24" wheels, some 24x3.0 Gazzys and some 24" Tioga CompIII's so I can mix and match to all sorts of combinations! Wee!

sorry but i dont really like the looks of it. a major plus, flatlanding abilities with that mono-headtube thing. the bike must be sooooo low to the ground.

i think the frame looks alright, i would prefer a traditional triangle frame, but oh well. rides awesome though, a hell of a lot of standover clearance.

man i am desperate today

[mosplat]

hey, guys.

it's real weird to think that this thread was started a year ago.
but yeah, i was checking out the 1st couple posts,
and my brooklyn park bike was posted, without my notice.
not that i mind, but i do mind when people misinform
others of my ride.

but yeah.

Sam B, i'm glad you liked it. it does have lower bars (ringleaders)
and a lower gear (odyssey utility gear 39t) now.

atrokz and voodoo, the bars were brooklyn machine works bars,
they look totally different from dmrs. and they're nokian gazzis,
i thought the logos were visible on the sidewalls.

i'd like to post a pic of my updated bike,
but i don't know how, can anyone help?
thanks.

under the box that you type in to post ther should be a space that says attach file. make sure your file is under 102kb and click browse. find your picture, click open and then hit submit reply after putting in a few words of text into the reply box.

[the BIG cheese]

like this.....

hope i helped

[PGKelly]

oooo, what year is that look? what are the parts? at a glance it looks like old-school shimano 600

[mosplat]

very nice imperial.
i've always liked the design.
my friend rides one with dc shivers,
he just switched them out for dirtjumpers.

here's the pic.
yeeaah.

????????????
If a pic of your bike's on the net and it aint copyrighted any of us can us4e it without anyones permission.

DMR bars have a big brace in the middle, bmw bars are 5-piece.. i know that.
WHat did i say? (i really don't know what the hell yer' talking about)

[mosplat]

hey man, relax.
i'm not trying to start a fight.
i'm new to ridemonkey.
i was just saying that my bike was posted,
and that you and atrokz thought my bars
were dmr and tires were kenda,
when my bars were brooklyn and my tires are gazzi.
i've got no problems with anyone, i just
wanted to make those corrections.
that's all.
if you don't remember, which is totally understandable
cause it was like a year ago, check out page 16
and 17 of this thread.

these are the bars that used to be on my bike.
