DH Sunday + Opium.

My Sunday. Got the frame off Jake Lucas last year. Been adding bits here and there since. But more recently a Crank Bros Opium Wheelset, which i couldn't resist when they came on special. Will be good to see how they go, was a bit hesitant at first for obvious reasons, I may be tall but I'm not heavy, so the lack of spokes shouldn't be an issue according to reviews. Anyways, enjoy.

Frame: IronHorse Sunday Team - DHX3.0.
Fork: 09 Races w/ WC lowers.
Drivetrain: X9 Gear - RF Atlas Fr Cranks - V-One Pedals - LS-1 Guide.
Wheels: Crank Brothers Opium Wheelset - Schwalbe Muddy Mary 2.5 Triple Compound.
Cockpit: Lizard Logo LockOns - Protaper DH 780mm - Funn RSX Stem.
Chair: Fsa 'NOPA DING' on Thompson Elite.
Brakes: Avid Code.
Weight: 18.9kg. NOW 18.4kg with Stans Tubeless.

Thanks guys.

dare i ask ball park for them? loooove it
They were recently on special for $899, but they usually retail for around $1300 I think. Bit pricey, but should hopefully be worth it, initial impressions are good. Will do a bit of a review after i get a few rides in.

I can never decide if that's a good thing or not.

Though if you're riding on the street between home and trails it makes a decent replacement for a bell. "No officer, I don't need a bell. People just know I'm coming :cool:"

It's only seen the streets home from the bike shop and my backyard so far. Don't plan on leaving it alone in public anytime soon, as both the looks, and as Cam-o was saying, the freewheel scream steal me. :eek:

I reckon those 09 'team' frame colour looks sweet.
Black world cup lowers with the green boxxer decals would look

Went tubeless today. Shaved off 500grams. Pretty happy with that.
So now down to 18.4kgs, which isn't bad. Tempted by a Ti Spring for the rear to lose a bit more.
