Man, is there really that much gap between the wheel and the down tube? Damn.

650c front wheel for the barspinzz

Gotcha, that makes more sense. Who doesn't want to do the mad barspinzzz?

[jstews]

scabz, what are the measurements on that frame? Top-tube, seat-tube and standover specifically.

Gary Fisher Montare

My new commuting ride. I do 14 miles each way.

Gary Fisher Montare, 29er. Replaces my previous 26 that wouldn't stop in the rain, shifted like crap, had a gimpy fork and weighed 40lbs.

This fixes all that.

Still need to transfer my pedals over. Buddy flaps on order.

I wasn't sure I would like mechanical disc brakes but the BB7s are much better than I expected.

Hate to sell it but make me an offer if you like it
KHS Witch Doctor AKA DS200016. I built this bike 4 years ago as a mechanic in a local shop. 16" frame, 18 speed, RS Pike fork, Romic rear suspension, Hayes hydrolic disk brakes (8"front, 6" rear), Shimano Deore shifters, Kalin seat post w/ quick release, pounder cranks. This bike was originally sold as a dual slalom jumper, but with the up grades to the suspension/ brakes makes for a very capable downhiller.

FOR SALE



Velocity aerohead matte black 700c - Laced to Dura Ace NJS 7600 series hubs, single fixed with Sugino red anodized push on cog set - comes w/ 16t,17t,18t cogs and Surly lockring. Very good condition, all of it. Spins like butter, no hops, no wrecks. Pretty lightweight considering the Velocity product. $300obo



2007 IRO Mark V Track frame w/ fork and headset - Deddacai tubeset, bikeforums.com group buy bike from 2007/2008. In decent shape. Has ding on top tube, and scratches here and there. Still very pretty when built up. Super lightweight, very stiff and rigid yet comfortable on the street. Comes with bladed fork (unicrown style) and Cane Creek semi integrated headset in great shape - $175

Sugino 75 NJS stamped drivetrain - includes 47t ring, matching Superlap BB. All in excellent shape. Very little scratches, if anything worth noting. I took very good care of this thing and bought a brand new bottom bracket (less than 200 miles MAX) after I sold off my NJS frame. I think the driveside Sugino has some fading from the pedals swinging around. $350 obo

Izumi NJS chain - Not the ECO one, the race one. I paid 135 for it IIRC, but I'll take 50 bucks. I dont need it and its in perfect shape. Maybe 300 miles, stored in oilly bag sealed up. May need a new master link. The one it came with was the screw style, not very good for efficiency on the street. its Gold/Black. See photo above.

Willing to trade for E30 parts. PM me and I can email you some better pictures if you're interested. For some reason I cant find any pictures stored in the cloud. :/

Edit: Id really like to trade this whole bike for a whole parts car E30 with good trans and motor. Body, no care about condition. :) Someone make that happen.

just go m50, they're like $500 bucks. and you can s5x upgrade

Frame cool
Rear Hub cool
Rims meh
everything else... why?

[e30_kid]

It looks like you have zero clearance with the seat tube and the tire. Very nice.

[steinbachphoto]

I don't understand the neccessity of having deep dish rims on that bike. Also, why the toe clips? Sell the deep dish and get yourself a clipless set up

[benjamin]

it's really a shame what they've done with the vigorelli

[scabzzzz]

it's really a shame what they've done with the vigorelli

I feel this way too. You should see what this bitch does locally to hers! Its all trick tracked out. Disgusting...

[benjamin]

i've seen some nasty vigorelli's before. Yeee30's isn't horrible, just needs some tweaking. namely a saddle that wasn't 12 doll hairs, the fork tube chopped, and you could maybe use another link in that chain? as far as the wheels go, i dig deep wheels. are those formation face's? and is that a machined phill wood up front?

I ment it's a shame what cinelli has done with the colorway, really gone downhill. i'll try and snap a photo of my hommies NOS 09 that we found at velo swap a couple weeks ago. much better looking if ya ask me.

[e30evolution]

Toe clips are fine.... I would rather ride a fixed (especially brake less) with toe clips... You don't want your cleat coming out while sprinting or trying to stop... toe clips are safer. Just the pedals you have are garbage.

Formula front hub... blah
Phil wood rear is cool
Tires are complete garbage, as is the saddle/seat post
Messenger cranks are garbage...

But don't let us hate, as long as you like it and it ride well then whatever

My track bike

My Tri bike

Cleannnn

I used to race tri's when i was younger (14ish) and actually picked up a full sponsorship from trisports.com. Would finish top 25 in all my races. When my dad (and training partner) got diagnosed with lung cancer i stopped competing.

My rig back then (47mm with 650's lol)
