    HOPE retro-fitting old and new

    sounds like I don't have enough bits to work with, I might just rebuild as they are and put them on something they fit properly! just picked up some M4s with tech levers that will fit what I need, not retro at all but I really dig em. I do remember brake failure well! many years ago running...

    awesome, cheers coyote! wonder how ill go finding just a cap though. sport levers are a bit more common around here, would the cap off one of those fit? took me ages to find pros.

    HOPE retro-fitting old and new

    I think ill give it a go with some new 2pot callipers from the V2 or X2, whatever they're called now. I haven't measured anything yet but surely the 2 new larger pistons wouldn't need much more oil flow than the old 4 pots. my next problem is one lever is closed and one is open. from what ive...

    HOPE retro-fitting old and new

    hey guys, ive got some old hope Pro levers that I really want to use on a bike I'm putting together but the frame+fork mounts are post type and id rather have a neat setup with no extra adaptors/mounts so I was thinking of using a new calliper like an X2 or even E4 with the old levers. Has...

    Foes 2:1 FXR 2007

    no idea! i dont even own bathroom scales to do a rough estimate. most of the build is old DH stuff so she's a tad heavy but the frame and shock alone felt pretty light for an all alloy 6". as i change bits ill aim to cut weight where possible. rims/tyres and forks will probably help the most.

    2002 Giant Team DH. Built from scratch

    that'd be awesome to shred stairs and terrorize pedestrians! hookworms are fun, gives it a really supermoto look, especially without the fork guards.

    http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/9330612/ this is what you need bro! i ran monsters for years on heaps of different frames, most with really long head tubes. always had room to adjust fork length.

    GT STS LOBO [Australia]

    yea thats fine mate, you can sorta tell by the gap from the top of the spring to where the top tube meets the seat tube. its either medium or large, they were all really short. doesn't bother me though, when i eventually get it built it will be the most badarse path cruiser ever!

    Post your long travel hard hitting hardtail PICTURES

    Re: this was my old rig, its about '03 here i think. the 2001 norco 250 went through many builds, all with big forks as i couldnt afford a jelly bike (i was about 16) Z1s, xvert carbons, monster T's, boxxers, and eventually 888s in '04. all with 24" doublewides and 3"gazzaz. it was the biggest...
