very nice bike! only one thing i'm not sure about the typeface on the cove decal; not saying it's bad i'm just not sure!!??, love the rims and colour scheme!

otannato replied... on 5 September 2008

Thanx for the rate mate! I handpainted the frame myself and then was playing around with the transfer. Just try to get away from the normal typeface. You're not the first one to ask me this though.

sweet looking ride! with some serious speck too, i like it alot. how much was it??

otannato replied... on 5 September 2008

I would say around 1.5k, that's because I've got a used frame and forks.

otannato replied... on 5 September 2008

And I assemble everything myself including the rims, so that would lower the cost on labour a lot.

ahhh... another "i know better than you" chap... good! that's all you're good at.. might as well sell your bike and just sit in front of the computer, that's if you got a bike!!!
i don't need to know everything about bike just to argue with, just to build my bike and ride..that might be "NOTHING" to you but it's "EVERYTHING" to me.. enuff said, not going to waste my time with dumbhead like you... GROW UP!!

bikerboywill said on 26 July 2008

love it! i want those rims! how are they? do they feel solid enough for dh?

otannato replied... on 26 July 2008

The DS28 is recommended for AM and light FR, but if you want to do a DH try the DPS32 which is for DH use. I don't know how well the 28 will hold up up coz I'll be doing lots of trail riding but I would not recommend it for DH tho. If look is not really a matter to you, why don't go for Mavic X823? They are the same rim as DeeMax except for the color and of course they come as rims only and plus you can run UST tyres on them. But DPS32 is pretty strong unless you're doing 10+ drop. I can assure you my Tioga DH is VERY strong! I'm not a smooth freerider, I've nose-landed, side-ways landed, 6+ flat landed and the last one which I broke my back which I would described as vertical-rear landed, they're still round and true. Weighs only 592 on my digital scale, too bad they don't make them anymore. Plus they're quite cool black rim with white stripe in the middle.
