    The tan wall tires look so much better than the all black tires. Maybe it's just the old school GT-Dyno BMXer in me, but I love Gumwall tires.

    @andrewh7868 หลายเดือนก่อน +23

    Next, remember that manufacturers add a lot of extra carbon, so I recommend drilling some 1/4" holes every 3/4" of the downtube. Also, fill the tires with hydrogen instead of air. Also, sealant is lighter than tire rubber, so add a 1/16" drilled hole in the center of each tire knob and let the sealant patch it. Then, tune your spoke count. Start removing spokes until the wheels start to warp, and then add back the last one you removed. Now it's perfect for your riding. Oh, and stickers are pretty heavy. Get rid of those.

    Whenever someone says "but what's left of the original bike?" I just have to say this: making a bike TRULY yours is one of the most special things you can do if you're really interested on the sport, my Demo 8 only has the cranks, seat, seatpost, wheels and derrailleur left, the forks are still there but not for long since i'm buyng a Marzocchi with Fox internals from a friend to swap to coil for that maximum response. I did also swap the seatpost for a dropper but a un-replaced trail side fix ended up breaking the action of the dropper, wich turned out to not be for sale anywhere at all so it's just a paper weight now

    That tan schwalbe tires look great. I'm a Schwalbe guy and the Hans Dampf is more of a front Enduro tire. For the rear, you should put on a Wick Will or Nobby Nic for better rolling ristance. Wicked Wills roll faster.
    In my trail bike i have wicked will rear, nobby nic in the front. My opinion is the best trail bike combo.

  • @Titot182
    @Titot182 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Schwalbe user over here from the UK. I've only ever ran Schwalbes on my bike for the past 10 years, with the Dampf being a very good compromise on all conditions. It's a bit crap in the slidy, rooty slop over the the Forest of Dean winter, but bike park, they're ace. I stupidly made the mistake of running my rear as a bronze and front as a tan wall. The tan wall will match your Santa Cruz downtube logo that bit better. Although, for heavier natural steep stuff, I run double magic mary's or a mary front and big betty rear - DH casing (because it's better than running inserts).

    - How about a second hand build off? Set a price point see if you can assemble a better bike from purely second hand components compared to a second hand bike you purchase as a complete rig?
    - A Hightower build to compare such similar bikes?
    A live vicariously through your costly mtb purchases and builds. I'm looking to get a V3 Hightower in size medium.
    I'd love to watch you build up a V3 Hightower to compare against your Bronson.
    Perhaps even try that popular for the moment trend of sizing down to a medium instead of a large? 😃

    Red line of your tires belong to the left side, brake disc. Hans Dampf is one of the best trail tires you can buy. Schwalbe is a traditional German tire manufacturer and offers really serious products. The colour of the line also indicates the softness of the compound. I recommend to ride soft at the front and trail on the rear.

    Hey Evan, nice story. Regarding the KMC vs SRAM chains, even though I'm more of a Shimano guy, I have to admit that the high-end SRAM chains (like the PC-XX1) are much better than the high-end KMC chains. I had both (aside from many XTRs) and while the KMC broke two times in less than 1 year, the SRAM lasted 5 years without any issue.

    nice, I threw the same cranks on my new Nomad build, but swapped to a 34 tooth. With the 32 I never use the big gear in the back, it's just way too easy. the 34 is perfect for my trail cadence. I went with the 210mm 1up, but might have to use the little shim thing to drop it's drop by 10 or maybe even 20mm as I get a little hip shifting while pedalling with it at the top. I went with Hope wheelset fortus30 rear, 35front, pro5 hubs, analog X01 derailer/shifter, rainbow XX1 Casstte and chain, factory 38's, Crankbro Mallet 11's, 1up bar/stem, guide/guard, mud hugger fender (has the lower piece that keeps muck/water off the lower linage, is fantastic) Michelin DH22 front, Nobby Nic rear, and Hayes Dominion A4's, and 95% ridewrap to top it off. She is a beast of a bike, yet easily setup stiff to get good XC riding and keep up with my XC buds. I still can't believe I own it lol Dream bike for sure. Definitely get it ride wrapped, and the Mallet 11 pedals would look dope on your Bronson ;) Black and gold. Cheers to you man

    Tan/skin-wall tires are stylish. But I think Onza made it the best-looking on their tires. The light area is like more thin, more contrast and the logo placing is way better than Schwalbe or Maxxis do. And those are honestly the grippiest tires I’ve ridden, the Aquila and Ibex are beast-level stuff. P. S. “Swiss made” adds +10 cool-points

    Beautiful bike! Just wanted to mention that I built up a carbon gravel bike a few years ago and I wanted to use a dropper that I had got a great deal on. The only problem was that it was 30.9 dia. and the seat tube of my frame was 31.6. No problem I thought I’ll just buy a shim. I got one from Problem Solvers (great company) and the literature said not to use a shim in a carbon frame. Just something to be aware of.

    Really good build and I like the tan walls on this bike!
    P.S I love my Hans Dampf tyres, they are fast rolling and has tons of traction on my Nordic trails. Right now I'm running Magic Mary up front but for a faster ride in gonna try Hans Dampf up front and something faster like a Nobby Nic on the rear.

    If you bought an air shock that would ease the cleaning a lot and you can lock it out for the climbs

    I think the tan walls work nice.. and they should roll much faster being lighter and less aggressive.. Nice looking ride.. enjoy
