Hey guys.
I had planned on upgrading my Recoil with new parts, like a Boxxer Race and Elixirs, etc, but I've been looking through the old-school bikes on the Internet and kind of got inspired..... I know it sounds stupid, but I want to basically put the best possible parts from 2002-05 or thereabouts on my frame. I think it'd be really cool to kick it oldschool.
Anyway, here's the parts list so far. Thanks for any advice!
Frame - 2003 Azonic Recoil, flat black
Shock: Romic with rebound, compression, and preload adjustments
Fork - 2004 Marzocchi 888 200mm with rebound and compression adjustment.
Wheels: Mavic EX729 laced to Azonic hubs
Drivetrain: XT shifter/derailleur
Cranks: Shimano Hone
Seatpost: Thomson Elite
Seat: WTB Rocket V
Brakes: Hayes HFX-Magnesium with 8" rotors
Tires: Intense DH270 front, Maxxis High Roller rear
Stem: Integrated
Pedals: Truvativ Hussefelt
Headset: FSA Pig DH Pro
