What is the STW MTB built up from?
Those components that get a truly obsessive following on this forum.
off the top of my head and using recent trends...
Frame - on one 456 summer season
Forks - ? maybe revelations, pikes seem to be out of favour, perhaps something in a 36 flavour from Fox
Wheels - from the group buy thread, Pro II's on Stans Flows
Groupset - XT
Tyres - Conti Vert Pros
Saddle - Charge spoon
Lights - DX (yawn)
Bars/Stem/Post - Thomson
Any of that wrong? Does anybody own that bike?
Surely not a fox fork. Everything else fits.
Verts? are you sure?
I like 'em but on here I think they'll be so 2005
definatley not verts
tyres is the one thing there'll never be a consensus on
i'd say a high roller and a racing ralph would be close
[i]Groupset - XT[/i] SLX dude, XT is so last year, tyres would be a maxxis of some sort.
the videoed by me, photographed by Simonfbarnes...
I was going to proudly say, I have none of it. But I have got a Thomson stem, dammit.
Hecklers were 2003
Vert's were 2004
Yeah but which car rack to strap it to the Audi?
I don't have any of it 🙂
i only have the thomson bits
Surely the tyres would be the ST mag approved pairing of Blue Groove and Nevegal? Wheelset will be Pro2 for sure but I'd say they'd be on Mavic.
Question is... which brake pads? 😀

Feel sorry for you Mike. I recommend Immodium Plus, should clear that up soon as.
nothing has been as popular a reply as conti vert pros, kenda small block 8s came close but since then tyre opinion has been very split. Highrollers are probably a good choice.
brakes - hope m4's with 203rotors.
frame RM switch
Fork fox float
Wheel DT/X517 on xt hub
Race face turbine crank
stem seatpost race facr/rm
xtr mech lx shifters
Hope mini brakes...
yoohoo I am nowhere like anyone on here 😀
*opens canned worms*
You missed pedals and grips
*runs away*
yoohoo I am nowhere like anyone on here
i think that conclusion is a step too far.
Oh
ghetto tubeless would be essential.
Sounds like this bike has got gears. Surely that can't be right!
tyres schable big betty 😉
saddle sdg fly Ti
grip odi pedal xpeedo 😉
conti vert pros was ALWAYS just ajoke - wasn't it ? 😯
