Nice ride!!

Silly question here, but why the Hope rotors?? Why not just run Hayes rotors?? That would be an easy fix.

[roadkillross]

i love the look of the hopes and the hayes rotors that came on it were an 8 in and a 6in in the rear which i didnt like

looks like a sick ride ross, nice!

how come chumba didnt hook you up?

[LBmtb]

Sweet bike, Ross. Been hearing a lot of good things about that DW-Link that Iron Horse uses - supposed to be plushy plush.

[cru jones]

Ross, nice to see you pulled the trigger on the Sunday! Hope u got a good deal on it. Looks like it was from a previous owner. Im sure you already know this but all the sunday world cup frames are made in the US. Thats the only frame made in the US by Iron Horse.

i love the IH sunday bikes... i can't wait to hear what you think about the ride difference between VPP and DW link

[roadkillross]

yeah ill let y'all know how it rides. chumba was going to hook it up but it was still gonna cost a litta cheddah and it was only gonnabe a frame since theyre all handmade.

[soul rider]

is that Sam Hill's bike? he's the only one that gets a green one

[roadkillross]

no it isnt.. haha anyone who can buy a WC can have green

any one know if i need to adapter the brakes since the rotors may be too wide? theyre not running too smooth

I don't think the Hope rotors are any wider than the Hayes ones are, the problem probably lies in the calipers.....the pistons may not be retracting all the way.

[roadkillross]

aight im having my homie scope it out today so it SHOULD be better

[roadkillross]

anyone know where to get the bumpers for the upper stanchions for the fork?? anyone have any extras or can i get some on the way to the race?

[guero]

ah yes, the good ol' hayes piston non-retraction. my hfx nines never quite worked right. hopefully your buddy gets it fixed for ya.

cant wait to see some pix of ya huckin' on that thing!

[roadkillross]

yeah i cant wait.. hopefully ill have some poics from the race

Cut some grips down the middle and zip tie them to the stanchions. That will get you buy until you find something a lil more pimp.

On my Rissie fork I found some RC road car tires that were perfect. Might work for you too. They looked good.


Nice looking rig, seat looks painfull.

[roadkillross]

yeah thats good since i just threw away my last grips from my V10..sh!t.. i just remembered taht my dad tossed em and yesterday was trash day...F*ck.. well the seat is a bit boney to sit on.
