Its Built: My New Bottlerocket...

[StunZeeD]

Here it is, just need to put a rear der. cable on and tune it but everything else is completed.. I am somewhat concerned how close the chain is to the chainstays but I had no more room to shift the e13 over...if I have issues I will just have to dremel out the moutning holes to shift it down more. Aside from that it went together very easy...once again have to compliment Allen @ dropnzone..got this project done for me with 0 issues..only great things to say about him and the powdercoat is sweeeettt...I got a clearcoat put on as well which turned out really nice.

Sweet ride bro! I'm curious as to what you meant by "Marzocchi 66rcx2 (Works)" Thanks.

[StunZeeD]

Thx...it was sent off to marzocchi for custom tuning

[ZHendo]

wow, that looks fabulous. what does it weigh? what a build, jesus.

[StunZeeD]

Thx...

Right now on the ghetto bathroom scale it came in @ 39....I do have a set of maxxis ADvantage I maythrow on there which will drop it just under 2 lbs. I am going to test out the michelin first since I have never ran them and see how well they perform. I wanted to keep the bike somewhat light but I wont sacrifice performance for it...

Hey bullcrew, I have been tryign to measure to get the right size but with the welds and such to get good coverage I am not sure a rectangle guard would fit right? What dimensions did you come up with? I would like to get one from you to try it out
