So I finally got round to starting the upgrades on my Daughter’s Blast today.
I built this for her brother about 4 years ago and she’s not long grown into it.
When I first got it it looked like this:
A strip, powder coat and a few upgrades later it looked like this:
Daughter was keen to get in on the action and learn a few thing so she helped out.
Started stripping it down:
Black is so last year…..
New colour scheme:
30t with a nice alloy bash guard.
New wheels (which have sat in the garage for 12 months…..)
Should be a nice upgrade over the standard wheels.
Final spec will be:
1*10 SLX/Saint drive train 11-42t
30t n/w with Superstar alloy bash
Shimano M365 hydraulic brakes with Purple Superstar 160 rotors
Stan’s Crest on Superstar hubs with Schwalbe Black Jack tyres
X-Fusion HiLo Dropper with Madison youth trail saddle
And plenty of other purple bits!
Will update as we progress over the week – plan to get it done for a weekend ride.
Not sure whether to stick with yellow outers for gears/dropper or switch to black.
