My "new" GLory DH Frame.

So...
its been in the process for a long time.
ran into some delays, and now i dont have a fork.
i ordered a boxxer race today, which i'll use as a backup, or it'll be my main fork until the 2010 boxxer WC comes out.
So check the frame out.

Next week its getting a Roco air shock and some toher minor tweaks.
i'm in love with it :wave:




I think its YUmmy. :lol:

 

That's sick man. Who did the stickers?

 

Nice bike B-Flo. Ready for next weekend?

 

Todd ( destroyer ), Brett ( B-40 ) and a guy near my grandpa's shop.
i had some stickers made, then changed my frame design, so had some mroe made, then forgot to have some made, so i got to try out the quality of 3 people stickers.

 

Nice customization Brandon! Looks great!

 

Oh, and the Frame will be ready jsut in time for nationals :bang:

 

I guess your name is Brandon Flores by looking at the pics

 

the top tube decals i wanted jsut cuz i thought they were neat, and the chainstay one, i just had an extra odd blue one and my chainstay was blank so i slapped it on :lol::lol::lol:

 

Nice Brandon, Nice. You forgot Brandon " Sand Bagger Flores":lol:
BTW B-40 and I are working on some custom boxxer stickers for the goose. His work looks good.

 

he made the custom WC stripe stickers for me. they worked great, But the yellow vinyl had some issues coming off the backing, which is no biggie, it was an experiment.
:bang:

 

SO, what are some Hot cranks out right now that are pretty lightweight?
remember i'm only 140 pounds..
i'm thinking something like holzfellers or soemthing... i jsut want something lighter than my RaceFace Tanks

 

Build it light and fast, or this old man's gonna catch you on the next race!

 

looks sick Bflo. its nice to see you finaaly did something about it. why it's not built up already is beyond me, but whatever :lol:

get some XT touring cranks and go with those.

in case you didn't know, I'm a shimano whore when it comes to cranks. if for some reason you bust a pedal thread, helicoil them and they'll be as strong as saints (well, kinda :lol

so you're going to be rocking a 32mm race? should be nice. I wanna try it on the reign when you get your nice boxxer :wave:

 

Doing some quick estimates, it should be around 39 pounds built up again.
we'll see though, without that 2010 boxxer, its gonna weigh .5 of a pound more #-o

 

xt's or slx for a race rig,

 

I want one! Nice work BFlo! It shall be worth the wait.

 

Weight?Your going down hill. Theory is the more the weight the faster it will want to go down.:lol: Like the kids throwing the big rocks off the cliff in Fontucky this past weekend.

 

I'd rather float over stuff and pedal harder on the wall :?:

 

Nice ride Bflo, Bryan's going to have a hard time keeping up with that rig.

 

Lookin good, senorito!
