My Brand new 2011 575 build

[elastictangent]

I had the same issue with my ASR5 when I ran a Hans Dampf on the rear. Just too big for the back of the bike and actually clogged up on a forest ride recently.

yeah its a real shame, she looked fecking awesome sat on two rubber queens! Sorted now tho as I've fitted a 2.2 mountain king.





I've also bought a raceface Turbine double/bash chainset for her

Well bit of an update, I've been made redundant (along with others) so I'm pretty gutted this build will have to go on hold sad times.

bad news bro.... good luck for the new year...


what industry are (were) you in?

[FF]

Sad indeed and fingers crossed you get some better news in the New Year.

It's tough out there at the moment ...

Thanks guys, I used to work in a hotel in the kitchen. Apparently the hotel MAY be re opening on the 2nd of jan but to be honest I can't see it. It's a bit of a bugger because I live in a small village and I don't drive so its gonna be quite hard finding a new job. I dunno we'll see I guess!

Well I've managed to sell another bike to fund brakes for this build, I'm thinking about hope m4's running 183mm on the front and 160mm on the rear. i know 180mm is the max on the rear would I get away with a 183 on the rear too will the exta 3mm make a difference?

[Andrew]

183 will be no problem.

[trxrincon]

Thanks Andrew, I've ordered them today.

[trxrincon]

Here they are, hope m4 with 183 rotors.

[trxrincon]

Bit more work done.

[trxrincon]

Well shes finally finished! heres a few pics.

[Eddy B]

how are you getting on the the Mountain kings?

nice build btw

[trxrincon]

I'm only running one mountain king. It seems good both off and on road. Cheers
