rocket

Hey man nope few 100 grams heavyer than liteville 301 mk11 which is pretty light .
I worked out if i swapped my tubed wheels to tubeless id come in same weight
on of reasons why I bought it .
Go for it it's best bike I've owned craps over liteville. For roady loose riding and everything else

What made you switch from the 301?

 

[single-pivot]

Main reason was axtra length in top tube / reach
then second reason is shock compatibility ( liteville 301 has very specific needs and size restrictions )


Oh and new bike is steel yeah

I bet you didn't have many volunteers to ride up the old tier, I've done it and it's not to bad. Would like to see someone clean the whole climb I definitely pushed alot of the rocky sections. If you want to do it again and need some company let me know.
Love the bike too looks awesome.

Hi all . Has been a while with no updates ,or changes till now .
So i struggled with the set up on cancreek dbil coil shock and decided to move it on .
The replacement X fusion hlr coil shock . Now cotic run Xfusion gear so I'd thought they might do the job.
And well I'm glad i did can highly recommend it so much easier to set up and feeling good.

Did you use the CC app to help sort it out? What wasn’t it doing well?

Tried yep my hardest to set it up correctly .
But couldn't find sweet spot . Would be great one area then average somewhere else.
Where as compared with the xfusion vector hlr had it set up perfectly within a few rides and haven't had to change it since .

Well I've put minion exo 3c tyre on the back end of my bike ( It was on the front . ) But each winter I buy new front tyre .

And crap its blown the side nobs out so quickly its crazy . won't get 3c again surely its a design fault .
Like every side knob is torn in half
Now this is the first 3 c tyre I've used bought by mistake originally but jeesh

After some large chunks have been knocked out of my xx1 carbon cranks I thought it best not to test there now diminished strength so got some nice alloy ones .
Also gone to 170 mm length in the hope of less crank strike we'll see

 

[single-pivot]

Post ride report . Happy to say less pedal strike and very happy . It's a wee bit tougher in the up but way better on the down

Broke my colour pattern of red seat grips pedal's
With these nice pedals.
Just need set fork decals in Orange now

More info, and if you put new parts on it's just manners to take shots of said parts.

 

[Ultra Lord]

I dunno man, looks pretty good with the black and white fork stickers, matches the cotic logo

 

[single-pivot]

Oops some pedal close ups

 

[wkkie]

Nice. Ebay scudgood pedals?

 

[single-pivot]

LBS was in a hurry only $60 quid so that's all good
