Spoony Posted August 29, 2007 Report Posted August 29, 2007 Ok, so my selle italia was stolen so I had to get a new seat. I also decided on some new bars which of course needed a new stem... Quote
RussB Posted September 2, 2007 Report Posted September 2, 2007 The frame on that Iron Horse I posted earlier in this thread had butta-soft dropouts, and the axles were bitching them up pretty bad.

Texas850Turbo Posted September 3, 2007 Report Posted September 3, 2007 yeah time to get that thing dirty....mountain bikes aren't supposed to be that clean! :P Quote
RussB Posted September 3, 2007 Report Posted September 3, 2007 I rekon you missed my last comment...Oh, how I wish I could ride!I got the frame the day after I broke my wrist. I built that bike up with my left hand (I'm a righty) and a gimp right hand in a cast. Quote

zx12rider Posted March 3, 2008 Report Posted March 3, 2008 Mikep,yes, those are BB7's...I just installed a 6" rear rotor & bracket, as the 8" rear was overkill, and about 140 grams heavier!We're big Oury grip fans here, been using them for 10+ years. My Kid just got some Lime Green one's for his IbexOury's FTW!!! I also use them on my quad.2007 Kona Scrap Quote
