Ok well heres number 3 in the build list, As im still waiting for some parts for my orange build and im going slowly insane sitting at home as im off work at the mo, I thought I may as well start doing a dry build on the LTS.
Plans are to do a circa 95-97 Down hill style build, its not going to be exact but if you have had a look at my others theres no surprise
pictures are a bit off as im doing this in my living room as I have to sit down often.
First things first...... :mrgreen:
The frame, belive it to be a Lts 2 or 3, circa 95. Came as a bare frame other than the rockshox delux and a grumbling BB. It has been flatted ready for a re polish but that's not where im going with this frame.
Forks, with thanks to Gio on these, lovely condition Rockshox judy DH.
Couldn't help myself, had to have a look inside, anyone seen this set up? is this standard? dosnt look like it to me :?
Stem (forgot to take a pic) NOS KORE on this dry build,but will probably change for another and put this on my Zaskar.
Perch. With thanks to Dave fattiman, great condition,pics make it look dirty.
Club roost go fast in red.
Bars, from my stash of bits, Club roost sport.
Brakes, now im not sure which to go with, going to be Magura's tho!
From my stash of bits, NOS tomac reds....
Or, Raceline 'D HS33's,not NOS and needs couple new bits of pipe and some refurb work.
Cranks, nothing special at the moment, but will run a single middleburn 46t chain ring.
Wheels-spokes-hubs.
Now I love this set up. New XT hubs with radial laced on the front using black DT spokes,on the rear XT hub standard lace black DT spokes, both rims are NOS mavic 121 ceramic's.
So there it is so far, obviously there still parts to sort for it, and I have taken it all apart again as the fram is getting powder coated and rear triangle re-polished.
Thoughts,comments etc welcome as ever
