my '07 Hardrock Sport with rear bb7 (no cash for front one...), Specialized V-Groove seat and freshly rebuilt rear wheel.
My '99 Hoffman e.p. solely used for flatland, with the exception of any street riding I can do before I find a nice parking lot.

Here is a rear adapter for the Tektro (I'm assuming that's what it is):

For $20, you can swap them and have a much more useful setup.

Thats my bike now i have my new fork on it. Its an absolute dream.....
Im glad i got it. I didnt think it would make that much of a difference - boy it does.
Its a rare occasion that i leave the house on my feet or in a car - in all seriousness i ride where i want to go 80 percent of the time.
Maybe one day i could afford to have an awesome bike like you guys.
Id love to get an older(read: oldish) XTC frame for some of the stuff on my bike. I love those frames.
Next on the list:
Full SRAM Drivetrain build (Including new trigger shifters and brake levers)
But probably before that 500 dollar expense a new set of pedals. Stock rincon pedals ftl

It must be nice that the old rincon's frames are disc ready. My Rincon's fork is disc ready, but the frame has no disc mounts.

Nice! Always good to see a new Transition out there. And if it can't be blue, then black is where it's at

thanks guys! i'm really thrilled with it, she hasn't seen much dirt action yet, but I've been ripping the urban and i can't believe how immediately comfortable i feel on her.
for pedals i'm running azonic accelerators with longer pins installed at each corner. i've been very happy with these pedals.
