That color is freakin awesome!!!
What gearing are you running? Is it 36/13?

Brian

I like it. The color is way better than the military look I've been seeing lately.

the pics wouldnt load... i feel left out

Currently 30/16
The Haz-lite cassette comes with 4 drive cogs 12-13-14-16
I left the 16 on when I put the 30 tooth tree on. I'll switch them around for sure. With the 30/16 I cut the chain with the rear axle more forward than normal so I could use any cog and just have to adjust the chain tensioner, and not have to mess with chain length again.


Thanks for the reply!

i ran 30-16 once. it sucked. everytime i pedaled, the front wheel would come up

dooley

That'll affect the handling quite a bit.

Question: Why didn't you just buy a 33-tooth sprocket and use the 12-tooth cog? That would make a whole lot more sense.

Kenny_Ga

I wanted a nice small sprocket up front, plus i have four sizes to play with. I like having the torque too.

Thanks for the reply.

nice bike but my fave part is the color that color is clutch what does it weigh?

CMcMahon

If someone could explain what the hell that means, I'd be rather grateful.

FireTeamCharlie

I didn't get a bunch of kogs with my Odyssey hazardlites. :-(

beatifik

what did you use to strip it? what was the EXACT product called? brandname?

Brian

I think it's an old school word. Over here, it's been replaced by "Schmick".

queensrider86

hazard lites are rims, buddy. if you bought the Hazard Cassette , then you would have recieved a bag of cogs

toyota200x

Can you take a pic from the side. It looks rad.

hypersnazz

It's also sold as a wheelset or rear wheel only.

queensrider86

yeah, but they also sell the rims with hazard freewheel hubs

FireTeamCharlie

I got the cassette wheelset. Also I fianlly took the tiem to load up the pics, that bike is freaking awesome! I might rebuild this Specialized frame it got, WTF did you use to strip it? I tried aircraft paint thinner and it didn't rip off powder coat too well.

Cluth is a band - their bassist, Danny Maines used to be part owner of a bmx shop in Germantown, Maryland called Wheel Pro. Strictly a bmx shop. He's a decent guy who has done well, so anything cool in bmx can just be called 'clutch' and everyone knows what you mean.



Nice bike - good to see a solid build up like that. Hope the Powerbites work out well.
