Do I need a certain size bb? I like the e13 guide better, but will a 2.5" tire work without rubbing, because in the bullit directions, it mentions clearance issues.

I use a 128mm with 2.5 michelin comp24s and there is plenty of room between the tire and the bottom of the plate.
E13s are nice because they're reliable and easy to use. Far superior to a MRP.
You can also check out a Gamut, they're some cool guides out of the Bay Area. They make a plastic guide and an aluminum one. It's a really simple and durable guide despite its light weight, similar in design to an E13 but very trimmed down. Their team raced semi-pro last year at all the Norbas and as far as I know had zero problems. It's worth a look.

You still want a small bullit?

Im still looking. I only want a frame. I already have brakes [hayes champaigne 6" hydro (can I use 8" rotors with the calipers?)] and a fork and drivetrain parts except cranks.

yes you can. its just a question of adapter.
yep. the ones with the 5th element. they are from 2003 or so.
Yeah thats the other reason besides an extra inch of travel that I want a newer one.
My friend constantly tells me to not get. He says I should get a stinky or something. I keep telling him that I am getting a bullit because they are so versatile because the frame is light. He's an idiot. I also dont have $2000.

Would a 2.5 minion in front and a 2.5 holyroller in the back be good a good all terrain dh setup? I think dual ply would be good for this.
Holy roller is the urban/dj tire. I think you mean High roller.
Yeah, I meant Highroller.
I am wondering what is wrong with jokers; my friend keeps telling me to get one istaed of a bullit, but I have heard they are a joke.
Are all hussefelts, isis? WHat is the other drive?
Does anyone have an atomlab conveertible hub. HOw easyt is it to change from 20mm to qr and back?
husselfelts are isis, the other kind is square taperedmtnbrider said:
DO isis really come loose all the time? If I got the atomlab hub, I could use a 20 mm super t and my dj2 qr so I would only need one wheel.
my isis cranks have never come loose....
WHat do you think about an iron horse 7.3?
solid budget freeride, the only thing i dont like is the fork
I like that bullit. Maybe I can get it. Thanks for showing me that.
