Orange Crush 2010
Front Wheel Setup
Rear Wheel Setup
Wide Bars
Cockpit Setup
SuperStar Custom Grips
Seatpost and Clamp
SuperStar Nano Tech Flats
The View from the Afternoon
Front Disc - 203mm Windcutters. Fixed Halo Hax Skewers
Plenty of tyre Clearance
Wanted to keep it relatively simple. Stayed well clear of going over the top with White bits, its a bit 2008 doing bits in white now. Leading me nicely onto my totally unoriginal thomson bits. Truth be told I got them all fairly cheap and i like the quality of them. I opted for the fixed seat post as in the last two years on my bikes ive never dropped my seat whilst out riding, ive done it before ive set off etc. Same with the Halo Hex skewers, fixed not QR.
The Sunline bars - I wanted something wide as im very broad shouldered. I tried the Nukeproof warheads but just couldnt get on with them. Thought about the Spank 777's but they really are too big.
I, like a lot of people, have been very happy with SuperStar components, started off with the brake pads I had a couple of years ago so thought id try some of their other stuff. Im thinking about trying their hubs on my Prophet.
All in all, happy with it. Just got to fit the SRAM front mech. Other bits will be upgraded as and when they break.
