Nino has my hubs in and has thoughtfully sent me a tantalizing pic to torment me during the ship wait from Euroland. Still waiting for the Concorde saddle from Tune. The blue should go well with the Kona frame, no?

I thought we already decided on the carbon Nokons?

 

[Slobberdoggy]

I wonder if you can replace some of the rear suspension linkages with the carbon Storck linkages?

What rim/spokes do you plan on using. Pillar ti's would be nice :arf:

FWIW, my two cents, it would be nice to see someone use the NATEC mtb carbon cranks.

I look forward to the new build and I think the Fornales looks pretty dang intimidating :thumbsup:

Those linkages look sweet. Thanks for the heads up on that. As for the wheelset it will basically be a carbon copy of my existing Tune/Stans set. Revos with Supercomps on the DS rear. Not very fancy but I have been very pleased with the perforrmance and stffness. The beauty also will be my ability to swap out wheels from one rig to the other with no recalibration for 24hr races and such. It will be really nice to have one wheelset set up with more of a mud tire and the other with Crows for good conditions. The crankset will be a bit different. I located a NOS Race Face Next LP in square taper off Ebay. I love this crankset. This will be my third Next LP but the first square taper- no more ISIS bearing issues.

You can get Blue? I dismissed the I-link because there was no Blue. Lets see what they look like. I dismissed Nokon because you said they were crap even though they had Blue.

 

[bandito greg]

i have those hubs in that color...

they are awesome. but im sure i dont need to tell you that...what rims are you using for the build??

The Nokons are great but get the I-Link if you like that "shower hose" look.

I have no idea on that. I leave the wheel building to the professionals. Yes, I am using the 355 ZTRs as indicated in the pics The price is basically Chris King plus. The turn around time will be like a month cuz my saddle was backordered or something.

shipping of hubs...

problem is that Tune is moving in another facility and in the meantime all orders take so much longer . they haven't been very fast prior to that but now exotic parts are a pain to get. usually i can get these parts within 2-7 daysthough and shipping to the US usually takes around 4-8 days.

Yes, the beach would be very nice about now. I have the flu and it has been below zero the last four days. On the bright side, I have a new set of rollers...sweet. OT, don't bother watching the '06 Giro-really boring. The '98 Giro was much better. I need more vids for the rollers............
