It was very easy to be honest I thought I’d be out on my arse first time but it’s good once you’re in it wraps around you like a cacoon the tarp hangs over quite a bit so keeps me dry I was out last week in the wind and rain I basically just hung everything low to the ground and it was great
Thanks for the info . Yeah I’ve had these rims on quite a few bikes will change the crank when I one one I like but preferably stx to match the rest of the components
So I’ve finished the bike rockshox recon forks
Gt bars
Kalloy uno stem
Shimano stx brake and gear combo
Shimano stx v brakes
Shimano stx front and rear derailleurs
Shimano stx rc hubs laced to ritchey comp rims
Panaracer fire xc pro tyres

Hi I’m after some 26” rim brake wheels black rims with shimano lx m570 hubs (the blue grey) as cheap as possible as it’s for a build on a very tight budget not mega fussed if rims are silver but aesthetically would look better
Thanks
Great build I’d love one I wouldn’t ride it but what a piece of wall art . For anyone else who has issues with elastomers I used an old spoke and bent the end int a hook . I’ve just put some manitou 4 forks on my kona
So I was driven into a few weeks back and front wheel was totalled forks were ok luckily but decided on a complete new front end . So went with
Nos. Shimano stx threadset
Nos. Xero front wheel
Nos. Kalloy uno stem
And I replaced some of the elastomers with a. Spring kit in my manitou 4 forks
