Intense DH M3

[SuperSixty6]

Hi Guys.

Just posting my Down Hill Rig, It is my pride and joy.

I have gone pretty much to the extremes to save weight, Only need a new saddle, and world cups – However air isn’t as plush. Pictures are shown with my everyday wheel set, With my race wheel set bike is sub 17kg – Has cost me a packet!

Let us know what you think.

Cheers

Nice!! Boxxer shocks... I was looking at those before I did my back...

So do you enter comps and stuff with this or...?

dam i was thinkin it was goin to be a BMW M3..


nice bike anyways ..looks expensive

[Jesterarts]

Just looking... the rear suspension on that frame is hardcore... lol... can you throw up a close up? Still having issues working out which bit moves when and where...

My rear suspension is simple... basically triangle with a shock at the end of it... a big bulky, tuff as nails triangle... but a triangle none the less...

Damn that looks expensive lol.

Don't quite know if I'd have the balls, (or soonafter - the lack of them) to be doing such speeds down rocky narrow bush mountains and stuff.
Would be an awesome rush of adrenalin though............

Sorry for the late reply guys,

I own the first version of the Straitline pedals, The new ones are supposedly rubbish as they have cracking issues with the spindle.

I would hate to have my pedals collapse under me after a 20ft gap!

I was going to go with an SDG yes – To continue saving weight, But I don’t know if I will spend any more money on it.

No not nationals unfortunately, I recently lost a pivot bolt and it’s going to cost me around $450 to get x4 new bolts.

Jester, I have uploaded you a picture.

Sorry again for the delay.

Hope you can understand how it works, I like Multi pivot over Single (Single is what your bike uses), Depends on what you like.

Cheers

Yep... cheers... crazy... but i get it...

Yeah... I've ever only owned bikes with a pingle pivot so I don't really have an opinion on it...

I'm happy with the single pivot for what I use my bike for... does the job...

Don’t get me wrong mate, I love single pivot because you can save even more weight!

I may look into getting a Socom one day. Just don’t want to spend much more on the bikes at this stage.

Yeah I have been down at Cunungra, That’s where you really learn to love dual pivot. It is so rocky!

[calais_cruzin]
