Re: Ican S3 XC Frame
Well, put my order in for a XL, unpainted.... We will see how long it takes to get to the UK, and how much I get stung on tax.... Also had to order some parts from germany, as there is no UK stock of anything worthwhile at a sensible price.... Its going to have a mix of spares and new bit build.... Rockshox Dulux 165*40 SID ultimates 120mm GX/XT/XX1 mixed drivetrain DT 240/EX511 wheels Hopefully it holds up to the rocks in the peak, compounded by my inelegant line choices.....

Re: Ican S3 XC Frame
Been running mine for a while now and been pretty happy with it, funnily enough, its a bit of a rougher ride in the chunky stuff than my coil shocked enduro bike But that was the point really, I wanted a different bike that I would take on ground covering rides that weren't that technical, and were a chore on the enduro bike. As called out, the EX511 rims aren't really in keeping with the spirit of the build, but I am using the spare wheels I had for races/trips etc. I may build up a more XC set at some point when I have the time and inclination, but I do ride in a very rocky area, and like straying into techy territory, and have rubbish line choice. The only thing that is annoying me really is the shock doesn't have a remote, and its a pain to lock out without stopping and not getting you hand caught by my feet/cranks.... Its a pain, and really I need to stop, and lock/unlock the shock. I really didn't think it would bother me, but there you go.... I'lll live with it until a remote lockout kit comes available for the SIDlux March 08, 2023, 02:37:20 AM |
