Thanks Jonny much appreciated , no I got a frame only and built it up with both new and old components swaped over from my old ride. But i did get the mavic wheels after seeing them in a pic on dirtbikebitz
Ok so I am soooooo in love with all the uprisings out there... Such nice builds... I'm wondering what the weight is on each of the uprising builds... I'm really considering the uprising but am trying to get away from my 35lb reign.. Without sacrificing the travel for the fun of descending anything and drops and jumps..
Build up with ztr flow ex, hope hubs wheelset. The heavier super gravity hans dampf tires, dh worthy. Sram x0 cranks, absoluteblack narrow/wide 32t chainring, sram x0 derallieur/shifter, bos deville 170mm, renthal stem and bar, ks lev 150mm, csixx xc guide, formula the one with 180mm disc brakes. Probably not the lightest out there, but with this build, the bike and parts, can certainly handle some abuse.
Now with clean rims:
Sorry for the people who already seen my post with photo's of the uprising.
Why say sorry, it's awesome! Would love an Uprising.
Plan for my Evil, in bold is what I have already, italicized is undecided:
Frame: Evil Sovereign Fork: Marzocchi 55 CR @ 150mm Headset: Cane Creek Stem: Thomson X4 50mm / Deity Cavity / Raceface ? Bar: Deity Dirty30 Grips: Renthal Kevlar Brakes: SLX? Seatpost: Rockshox Reverb Seat: Raceface Atlas / SDG Ti Fly / WTB Silverado ? Crankset: Raceface Evolve with 34t N/W chain ring & Team xc BB Guide: E13 XCX+ Pedals: Undecided whether to stick with flats or try clipless Chain: Shimano 10spd Cassette: Shimano SLX HG81 10spd Rear mech: Shimano Zee Shadow+ 10spd Shifter: Shimano Zee / SLX / Saint ? Tyres: Maxxis HR2 Front, Ardent Rear Wheelset: Hope Hoops Pro 2 Evo on Stans Flow Ex
Big question, stick with 26 or go 650B? I don't want to jack up the BB too much....I don't know how it would handle. Anyone with a Sovereign who can shed any light on this?
Think that's it...hoping for a fun AM/Trail shredder
P.s I gotta say, their customer service is rad, the guy couldn't sound more stoked!
