re: well I quite like it, the 1x9 setup is a nice touch. it kind of feels like a modern P7, the way it used/ should to be.

Re: re: / well dirt bikes don't see that much shifting either way. And the lack of ghostshifting can be a result of the lack of function... But well sometimes u can find low budget alternatives that are really good, but stx isn't up to the plot when comes to racing. I bought some...

re: well the brake-levers are great from the xt line. isn't the bontranger 1"? and I have some memory that the xc wasn't orderable in 1"? just a guess. black was only sold oem on bike I think.

re: ohh, shut the f*ck up. they're crap, slx is crap, lx is crap,stx, deore is crap. xt/ xtr is way better. Trust me I've ridden them all.There is no way in hell that stx shifter outperforms Xt/xtr from any time period. I would say that they are as precise as a worn out gearbox from...

re: I've got it to work okay, I turned the orginal guide around so that the cable runs across the toptube, but I have been using the Aluminum "bend" from the brake, but as it works right now I'm trying it that way during the weekend but then I've modified an outer housing by removing the...

re: looked at it but it's like 16euros plus freight around 10, and on top of that 15days delivery so it feels a bit on the expensive side :shock:

re: clever, would probarly work to modify some kind of soft outerhousing to work the same way...

I need some help getting my rearbrake smoother, right now I have the original canti-hangerthing which is drilled so I can use it with v-brakes. But I'm not satisfied with the action. I need some tips on what u can do.. Have been thinking of maybe getting the problem solvers bolt on thing, or...

re: I have a Manitou Black on one on my rides and it was really sticky so I took some Teflon lubricant sprey and just sprayed the innerlegs a lot and took it for a ride a couple of weeks ago, now it works like a charm or well it works and is not sticky. going to try the same to my bomber. I...

re: well it's not that old and was sold with an 80mm fork, the laurin seem a tad to high but probarly balances out when riding due to sag? really liked that u used maguras! one fellow who ride with us has one with spinergys and sram it looks about orginal. I had the 93 modell, and the 06...

re: I'd say dress this pup up with some 950's v's, levers, rear der, cranks and shifters and keep the front mech 900'n. That will contrast all the bling a lot, otherwise it may get to shiny... But I love it, looks really in a nice condition. ready to race!

re: the f3000 is a more upscale bike, with a lighter and more advanced frame and fork then the 800. but they look the same and the angles are the same. the f800 is fairly light to. I would want one, but the stem is supposed to be negative for that harcore feel.

re: I must say I quite like it. the cable routing could probarly be done in another way, but it's probarly functional. I like the fact of taking old bikes and make them actually rideable...

re: all racers I've known have been riding negative stems. it's like shaving your legs you just do it!

re: got some z2 for my koa today to, thought the front end ended up a tad to high, thinking of putting the p2 back on, and get a quill adapter for it... and ride my fs a bit more... really looking good with both forks, you should flip your stem with the z2 to get it to look a bit more aggro

re: well I rode a full sus in 94, it was a single pivot design and it worked just fine. I just got offered a better race bike and it was a rigid one with xtr, and I wanted to try it. It was a lot faster due to probarly more of the psychology of the thing. rode hardtails thru the 90's and FS...

re; I think old FS's are really cool. if it just works this is a pretty good ride to!

re: looks very nice!

Scalpel Specialized made the first scalpel in the mid 90's that's pretty cool!
