Hello Bikers!
Here I put the latest I Lapierre Spicy changes 316, in a photic looks better, now you the details.
the bike really fits some of the original in terms of components, the main changes have been
new Complete Wheels. Equalizer rims with DT spokes Sunringle and Nuke Proof Generator hubs front and rear. It's spectacular performance of these bushings, rotating fine fine, besides saving weight on the rear wheel has been raised, because it changes the deore cassette by a Saint, which I managed to cut nearly 300 grams.
Formula disc brakes I have changed to a Shimano XT, much faster response and much less noisy.
The bike now has a complete set SLX (except the aforementioned cassette), resulting in weight savings compared to normal Deore, not much, but it's something. The three plates have been replaced by a 22-36 and SLX M665 E-type front derailleur SLX M665-E, so that change is optimizadisimo for two plates and is much more discreet, it was hard enough to adjust the switch three-course so I decided to change it, although I struggled a bit to find the switch mentioned.
also has tense and covers Blackspire, Dewlite model, with this you can say goodbye to the chain outlets, the truth is that with the 36 teeth are not for anything I miss the big plate of 44 at the end of the day this bike is a bit absurd take on the intended use
The Fox Float R rear serve its purpose, but to constantly stops unless they are a very high air preload, which was very hard, I've changed to a Manitou Swinger 6WAY spring of 2005, this weight gain has been very high, namely 650 grams, but have been minimally offset the hubs and cassette and the SLX group, which always goes down a little weight. The truth is that sensitivity that gives a spring has nothing to do with the air, now incorporating springs front and rear and the bike performs wonderfully down, swallows it whole.
The last modification was to add a CB Joplin seatpost 4 of 100 mm of travel. The truth is that one pass with a remote power off the post and to delay the weight without problems in areas with many obstacles, jumps Trialeras.
The last thing I changed was the power, those 90 mm of the standard did not have much sense, now I've put a Truvativ Husselfet of 45 mm and the bike is much more manageable.
a silly detail, but it's worth, is to remove the gear indicator buttons (that can only be done on SLX and older) greatly overwhelmed me having to carry the brake lever attached to the grip, do not get to have the brake at the correct distance to brake with one finger and change comfortably at once, it seems silly but it is not, and moreover you take off a turf
Ah I forgot the pedals are Crank Brothers Acid 1 about 2010, are very fine, like almost everything about CB ... Vallnord although I'll put a Mallet 1 that I have for these issues, acids have little support if it goes downhill breaker.
Well, I hope you like it, this is the bike that took me to Vallnord this summer to use less raw I have prepared a Manitou Swinger 4way air and a FOX Float RC2 I have in the cellar, which will take off almost 800 grams of weight to the bike, leaving it in almost the original weight but wearing chain guide and seat "preppy" the truth is that this Spicy comes out, despite the controversy emerged recently with the dashed through the mud on the chainstay
bikers Greetings and see you on the road!
