Default Re: The MTB thread

Got my new bike together now.







Specs are;

-Rockshox 318 Tora Solo air forks
-04 Kona coiler frame
-Big sun rims with LX hubs
-Deore crank and external BB
-LX deore rear mech
-Deore front mech
-Alivio quick shifters (no point spending big money here tbh)
-Avid Code 5 203mm rotor front brake (4 pot calliper, sooooo good and immense power!)
-Avid Juicy 3.5 rear 160mm rotor rear brake (more than enough to lock the wheel so its all I need back there.)

Not managed to get out on a good run but I played a little and it all seems great. So I hope I like full suspension now, first one.


Oh and keeping an eye on the forks. After some hard downhill riding they seemed to lose some oil... now the dampening dont seem to work so well and no lockout any more, oh and they lost a bit of pressure. So they might have to go back.
