« on: February 25, 2009, 09:38:22 PM »
the green meanie is DONE!!! green Jagwire Ripcord cables, new Reba dual air, SL 29er fork (rides sweet) New X9 front derailleur... Avid BB7 brakes, Avid TI Speed Dial Levers, Sram X7 shifters, Shimano LX Crank Set... Stock rims, Stem and Handle bars from off the Specialized Rockhopper. Bontrager Seat post.. anything I miss?

preeettty pictures   :D

I weighed the Dart 3 fork and the Reba when I went to the shop to get the lower race pulled and placed on the reba..
Dart 3 = 4.18 lbs
Reba SL 29er 3.48 lbs (with uncut steerer)

SWEEETTTT lost about 3/4 of a pound there, and it rides SOOO smooth!! :D

Do they glow in the dark?  :undecided:
Are you going to name the bike? "Kermit" or sumptin?  :cheesy: :laugh:

Seriously, the bike looks mint AND unique IMO.
A very kewl 29'r indeed.  :thumb:
The bitterness of poor workmanship remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten...

I love it!  I am so jealous. I want a 29er FS XC machine now.  What are you going to do with the Dart?  Want to sell it?

Yes, yes I do... you want it?   ;D  There is a guy I have seen at Bluff Point a few times that said he was interested but I haven't seen him the last few times there ( couldn't just be a timing issue   ::)) but I have to give him first crack at it if he's still interested... he was supposed to sign up here and contact me and he hasn't yet though... soo If I don't hear/see him after this weekend it's all yours.  I kinda over extended my wallet a bit so I need to unload it ASAP to help pay the bills!!   :undecided:
