Finally got my bike upgraded (pic)
Hey everyone....I finally got my 02' Psylo SL installed and my new Shimano RH-M540 wheelset. It rides like a completely different bicycle now. I upgraded from a Judy TT fork and the difference is like night and day. The wheelset feels more rigid yet I don't detect a weight increase. I definitely am satisfied with the upgrades!! Thanks to everyone here on the forums who helped me at one point or another!! Here's a little before and after pic I whipped up quickly on mspaint. Before (top left, bottom left) and after (top right, bottom right).

nice wheels and good choice on the upgrades. The lighter wheelset will definately make the bike faster and the Psylo will help a lot with just about everything, especially over the Judy TT

I have the same bike and I was thinking about upgrading my wheels. Just don't know what to go with. I know I want to get some wider tires. Was thinking these, http://www.supergo.com/itemdisplay.a...company=Maxxis
Should I upgrade my wheels too? |
Now get thee out and purchase some pedals.

Is the Psylo SL on the fly adjustable 80-100mm?

yowza, nice wheels! and susp fork!
I've wondered about those low spoke count wheels, and strenght, they just look like they cannot take weight :rolleyes: |
Nice! The Psylo must be a big step up in ride quality from the Judy :)
I've got R540's on my road bike and they're doing great so far. Very tough wheel. |

Hey, how do you like the increased suspension travel as far as geometry goes. Is it still decent on the climbs and tight singletrack? I'm thinking about upgrading from the 80 mm skareb to a marz' 105 mm MX Comp/ETA on my stumpie HT (when i get it, 19'' aren't available to my LBS yet so I'm saving some extra money for more upgrades so I can have the perfect bike for me when it is available. :)) I've been hitting the downhills faster lately and I'm worried the lightweight skareb won't be enough for me (I'm a bit of a clydesdale at about 190). Oh ya and nice bike love the new rims.

sweet wheels dude.

Nice bike, I would be wary of using the 125 mm of travel on the psylo, because it might be too mush travel for that frame.
