How much are you spending in comparison to a new built bike?
Now i have my Downhill Fever back again i decided to build my own custom bike.
ALways prefered to build my own bike's rather than spend thousands on a completed one. That way i get it for allot less and choose the best parts for me.
I decided to go for a Rocky Mountain RMX 2.0 frame, Been after one of these for a long time but they were really expensive and got a bargain on this one.
Swingarm's One QR and One 12mm Bolt thro. The 12mm bolt thro black one has been powder coated white now.
Front Forks Marzocchi 888 rc2x

Off to pick up my rims Later and waiting for a few small things to come back.

Look forward to updates!
nice bike! love them hope brakes
To get this built with the spec i have you'r looking at close to £3.5-4kOriginally Posted by sicskate
I'll be saving £2.5-3k. Bearing in mind that 50% of the parts i have are 2nd hand. Still it's a big saving.
Got my Wheel's on today.
Waiting on pedals seat and rear mech now. Then it's off to the local downhill track (World championship track) to break myself back in.
Very nice, i need to get another bike!
Looks good, and expensive!
Cheer's guy's
It's ridiculous, The price on parts has rocketed in the last 3-5 years.
You know you are going to die, right? lol
I was going to buy one of these bikes, but I know myself and I was going to kill myself... I used to do downhill with BMX and almost killed myself lol
Now I bought a Trek MTB
Great bike yours btw, awesome setup
