The time finally came to put the daughter on a duallie. She is nine now, and has been rocking the previously posted HT for 2 years. Every chance she got, she would snaffle her brothers xc duallie, and with him outgrowing it, and upsizing, took the opportunity to rebuild his old frame with the lighter parts off her old HT.
FRAME. Avanti Motiv II XS 14". 26", 100mm travel.
FORK. Old WC Sids, dual air, carbon CSU.
WHEELS. Carbon haven 26".
TYRES. Michelin Race'r 2.1". Tubeless.
BRAKES. XT m775
CRANKS. X9 170mm
CHAINRING. Works Components 30t direct mount NW.
SHIFTER. XO 9sp (lightest shifting for little thumbs)
DERAILLEUR: X9 9sp
CASSETTE. XTR 11-34 9sp
BARS. Carbon truvativ noir 660mm
PEDALS. Wellgo spry
WEIGHT. 10.4kg complete with pedals.
Result: She's loving it. Can't get her off it long enough to get a clean pic of it. Her confidence is through the roof, to the extent of riding the local DH tracks under the coaching of big brother. Watched Leogang and Andorra replays, and Lenzerheide live. She's raided the cupboard for Felix's Five10 carvers he grew out or, my old elbow pads as knee pads, and Felix's old moto full face. She's keen to enter the King Of Ballarat DH series in 2018. Great...a second child to kick my arse.
Close as I can get to it without too much mud on it.
Bigger forks to come after she races it in the coming state cycling championships.
