Yer man, it's amazing. The house is sweet and so's the riding. It's gonna be a bit chaotic when 5 more people arive tho.

THAT'S Sweet! Reckon you could send me one of those for £150 Wink?
I Love the look of Canfield's won't it be too like your Reign though? I've thought about H'Schmidt for my Reign, but def. going to wait for a second generation to sort any teething probs it might have.

Sounds good man.

Yeh it does cost so much for what should be relatively simple, but got to be done specially.
That sounds a good set-up, surprised you don;t want to get away from home-town and all that!
Girl in my Geog set's going to Manc' to do Geog, she's hot haha.
Cheap bike parts eh, what's your next plan for bikes then?

Yeh air does it for me too, both ends of mine are.
Getting them tuned is a point, shame TFT'd don't deal with DHX Airs?!
Ye it sounds like it should be good anyway and always something to put on CV.
What uni/course you going to do?

timbercombe wrote
Jun 8, 2009 at 11:38
Cheers for that, will have a look.
They really are capable of AM or DH depends which way you want to go. You going to put a coil shock on as well or not?
That sounds pretty sweet, the racing and dual should be SO good, I'm jealous. What's the leadership award for? Just as CV type stuff or a means to something?

timbercombe wrote
Jun 8, 2009 at 11:25
Ye I've found for UK stuff, the Reign's an awesome bike and you can actually get up the hills as well.
Those forks were incredible value!!! And they are very nice, I love HT DH, it should handle so nicely. How long you spending in whistler?
Ye the name of the company/site would be great, I'm thinking either Red or Gold would be sick.
Cheers

Jun 8, 2009 at 11:08
Ah ok, sounds similar kit and weight, it's a pretty heavy frame really, full DH frames weigh less, it just pedals so damn well!
Don't want to split the cost or have me contribute and I send some bits up to you do you Razz? That blender is gorgeous, why not talas 32s instead though with 15mm?

timbercombe wrote
Jun 8, 2009 at 10:19
Hey man, do you know the weight of your Reign?? And do you have a specs list?
ALso how much is it costing you to get your rockers anodised?

Laurie decided to lock it because a few people were arguing, and apparently she refuses to unlock it. Shame, really.

JamesOliver wrote
Jun 6, 2009 at 12:47
Yeh 36's are pretty light for what they are aswell. I'm just not looking forward to the price to fix my other forks Frown. I'm usually at manchester for gate practise every thursday if you fancy meeting up then.

Thats cool im not going to argue which bike is lighter but if your going to bring the wheels into it the ex 1750s are a claimed 180gr lighter than yours and your running a bash which weighs over 220gr but hay, and as for the tyres your the one with a minion on the front. As for sub 20lb 4x bikes i haven't personally had the privelage but someone i know has ridden one as low as 19lbs. Smile

I f*cked up, can you post a few pictures of your build and a detailed (like spag - what you did, what you'd do differently, why, etc.) in "The Weight Game"? I'll edit it into the original post this time. Cheers.
