Ok then, I shall look into this tomorrow, thanks for the info guys. 🙂

Was it a matching colour, hmmmm.

we need details 😆

Yes, I had briefly read somewhere, think it was a crc review that people were encountering problems with a half link gusset slinky chain for the reasons you mention above probably.

Ok thanks so what a standard Sram SS chain then?

Ignore them pesky poor player haterz

Argghhhh, I don’t know the difference 🙄

waves to the roady gang 😆

or again the All City Nature Boy disc.

or the Aluminium Salsa Warbird and then convert to SS.

Only one I like really is the Swobo Scofflaw SS, check it out on Charlie the bike monger’s site, – he is having difficulty getting hold of them though as Swobo put a 7month wait on them and still waiting.

I skipped the Swobo idea and went SS titanium 29er as I came to the realisation that I don’t suit the roady type focus of those types of frames.

wow, I’m starting to like fatties.

I accidentally ordered 2 free Schwalbe inner tubes to go with my 29er build kit so think I’ll try tubes to begin with then if I feel the need, I’ll go tubeless.

Yeah Whyte 19 ti trail is good too, I also know of one that is £899 for frame only made by Litespeed too.

my Whyte 19 ti was a bit too twitchy with 120mm forks up front but reckon 140mm would of sorted it out definitely.

So 120mm is too little travel for you then, as I know of new Litespeed Pisgahs for £599.

Blimey, I’m considering to go tubeless for the first time but may just run tubes to save the aggro and cost.

oh not sure they’ll fit having said that.

rebas for £200 at bikescene

@ aracer – only peasants say that. lol

Errrr yes, SALSA end of unless swapping end adaptors by removing end caps and going 10mm bolted axle on rear/RWS skewers.

My brother has a Spearfish in the best colour, lambo orange after spotting it as complete build and telling him to shift his ass and just buy it, he did and is thankful every time we got out riding.

It really is a flattering ride and always a pleasure.
Best fast short travel 29er full suss frame that I’m aware of.

yeah there is always a certain spearfish in the classifieds that is repeatedly advertised at any given chance.
Tbh I don’t see why someone hasn’t snapped it up or offered on it even if it is in that nasty green colourway.

Yossarian, I know what you’re sayin’ 😉 the mind never stops formulating build plans once a frame has been spotted.

My Litespeed Cohutta frame is looking immense so far.
Just waiting for Bos Dizzy forks to arrive sometime soon.

Pondering on wheels still though, deffo Arch EXs on either CK or Hope hubs.

Decided to go Sram Guide RSCs in polished with 160mm rotors instead of XTRs as the m985s or m9000s seem to be outta stock for complete set most places or not available with supplier. 🙄
Plus the 4 pot Guides look and sound promising.

ROLL ON BUILD DAY!!

Ti simply because you can adore your riding prowess by gazing at your reflection on the tubes. 😛

bernibus, are you simple or something, the OP NEEDS 100mm as stated in his original post.

Maybe it’s the fact you’re driving it on pavements that is leading to excessive wear. 🙄

Being a tight git and spending out on wrong size tyres.

hmmmm, I spot a reoccurring theme here. lol

I’ve gotta say, the only time I have agreed with cynical

I wasn’t talking about the manitou.

getit!?

Eurgggh! Yuk! that would break in half 😳

@ agent007 – muppet! for your comment on they deserve it.

There’s far too much of bad driving in fact just plain dangerous and potentially dangerous driving not to be filmed, i.e. needs to be filmed.

I was on an empty dual carriageway last night and we were doing 57 ish mph when a complete wankshaft thought it appropriate to follow 3 metres or less at times behind, the worst I have ever come across.

I as passenger wrote down registration plate and all info etc.

Going back to if you have nothing to hide agent007, I suppose if you’re asking for it, then you’ll get it!

I’m sure I’ve seen RS IF you want to go down that route for £70-£75 for the above post.
Bikescene iirc.

It’s sodding wet here like most places no doubt today and I wanna get funky with a BB30 or errrrr perhaps not.

I’ll get my mechanic to deal with that lol

or number 😉

Psycorp, – yeah your in the same catagory as me then.
If it’s anything like my Dirty Harry frame was, which it’ll probably be nicer then you’ll rate it highly no doubt. vgvfm frames!

what colour did you get, please tell me naked finish?

sounds like you sir require an XFusion Velvet fork in the steerer, travel and dropout you need.

Are you sure about that now, I mean are you a stwer or not 😆

With a hint of yellow I reckon it would look ace like the Joker

Just out of interest what did you think of Haldon as I am more local to FOD and ironically enough have yet to sample FOD.

I don’t usually comment on topics such as these but the little feckers, I mean that’s pretty harsh, must of been desperadonuts.

Three – end of unless there’s no signal for Three in your area.

Brilliant service when purchasing a fork recently. next day delivery too, BONUS!

😀

alreet alreet calm daaawn. 😮
