Here's the *basic* breakdown:
frame: 20" Kula 2-9 (weighs in at 4 lbs flat)
fork: Pace RC29 carbon
brakes: Avid Juicy 7s (180 front, 160 rear)
seatpost: LP carbon
handlebar: Ritchey WCS Carbon Rizer
saddle: Fizik Gobi
headset: Chris King
cranks/bb: XT (octalink, not 2-piece)
rims: Salsa Delgado (disc front, cross rear)
hubs: XT disc front, Surly singlespeed rear
pedals: Shimano 959
tires: Panaracer Rampage front, Motoraptor rear
chain: oh yes, it's gold.
I expect to get some actual "travel" with my front end: that flexy carbon fork and a 2.35" tire! In case you were wondering, the Rampage tread pattern looks nearly IDENTICAL to the Kenda Nevegal. The only difference will be the width. Also, pay special attention to my front valve cap. You get extra points if you can correctly identify it. Of course, this paltry frame doesn't hold much of a candle to Gino Felino's recently completed Lynskey... guh...
Is it a good idea to shakedown a bike at Council Bluffs? We will find out.
