My Moment.........

 

[Trevor!]

Very nice stuff indeed - I think my favorite Moment build thus far.

What length stem is on the maverick? Is that a medium or large frame?

Nice component choice too - I may have gone for a fatter tyre, but otherwise everything looks good, even the saddle too.

Trevor!

WOW!
Alright... that has got to be one of the sweetest bikesI have ever seen!
Love it! Bet it rides real sweet.

Thanks!

It is a 19" frame, and the stem is 70mm long, but a 90mm long stem will be better.
The tires are a Schwalbe Fat Albert and King Jim , both in 2.35" size....I' m in searching for better ones....maybe the Maxxis Hans venture...

The ride of the Moment is absolutely amazing!!

Bye,

Sweet

Looks great! Congrats.

I've heard nothing but good things about he Maverick forks, and the look is fantastic combined with the Moment. I would have guessed the frame was a medium, the fork makes the frame look smaller to me.

I kinda wish I'd considered that fork myself, but I rode a Maverick frame for a couple of months and was quite underwhelmed. I thought that if I didn't like the frame, I wouldn't like the fork, but like I said, everyone seems to love them. Let us know how you like the frame/fork combination over time.

Sweet looking ride, tend to think we do not look at those forks enough. The reviews I read and hear are very good, they are way light too.

Be interesting to hear how the moment rides on some freeride stuff. May well be a better more useful bike than my DARE.

Time will tell.

Cheers

Great looking ride. Nice job.

I have just put together a moment. I have gone for the float shock and mine is weighing in at a porky 14.2 kg. Will take some pics this weekend, and will post them next week

Thanks for the size information. I am just curious to what sizes etc people are using.

May I ask what height you are?

Those schwalbes are a good choice - I have a new favorite being the Kenda Blue grooves, a 2.35" up front with the same or a 2.1" in the back would be awesome fro dry condtions, and they work fine in wet but even better is there sticky compound.

Again, great bike!
