White with a Touch of Red

[CHUMBAevo]

You all know I work for CHUMBA, so I built up an AM rig and wanted to share with you all.

She has: White Syncros stem 90mm, White Syncros handlebars, and White Syncros rims laced to Hope hubs. Went with a 20mm Pike Coil with Maxle. Full XT drivetrain. Avid Juicy 7 brakes w/ 185mm rotors. Thomson Laidback post. White Ritchey Saddle. DHX 09 Air. Kenda Nevegals. Red King headset w/ matching Red CHUMBA Lock-on grips.

Imo, strong enough for light freeride, light enough for XC.

Looks like fun! DId you build this for yourself?

[CHUMBAevo]

It will be mine for awhile -- however, my 55 ATA and DHX coil is still waiting for me.

Puuuurrrttttyyyy... looks like Ben's rig but in white... XD

[CHUMBAevo]

White CHUMBA Saddles on their way ... maybe we should anodize our new seat collars also?

[Ricky D]

That's a sweet bike Alan! The white frames are growing on me more and more. Congrats on the build!

[MattP.]

Nice build, chain a little long?

[chucko58]

Nah, that's a medium cage derailleur in the granny ring and smallest cog. My XCL is also set up with a medium cage (SRAM X9 in my case). Normal for that setup - you'd never use that gear combo.

Nice build Alan! I could never get away with a white bike - it'd get too dirty too quickly.

That bike looks exactly like mine, but mines black. I'm doing the black/red combo. Is the red seatpost clamp a chumba one.... I want one...

I just came back from overseas - major jetlag my friend.

[Twister]

What a gorgeous bicycle!

It's got an all business, form follows function simplicity that I find really appealing, visually at least.

It looks like it could get pounded through he!! by a demon and not even get dirty!

I do like my full susser, but I suspect I'd LOVE that one.

The clamp is a jewel-like bit too.

Dank be hard to get lost with that clamp

Awesome looking bike.

[onabike]

whats she weigh in at eh?

[dubjay]

Alan, can I borrow this bike? Thanks.

Hey,

A Wet White WCS Ritchey Seatpost is on the water as we speak. It would look great on this bike. I want too get one for my VF2. You have a great looking bike!

[deematic]

perfect.

[Eastbaynewb]

How would one go about getting one of the new chumba seat collars?

[Eastbaynewb]

My first face was too generic.

[PizzaMan]

Enter the COW.
This is the most amazing bike I ever had (and I had many...)
It has the most amazing suspension - plush, active, and handles like a dream. Tough enough for FR, but pedals like an XC-Trail bike.

[ncarolinadawg]

How do you like the Joplin?

[PizzaMan]

It's great. Had one on my previous bike also . Actually it's the best upgrade one could have on any bike. I don't have any experience with other adjustable seat posts but the concept itself is great.
