Super Hardrock Rebuild

Stripped and ready to rebuild - tool a while to get the old bottom bracket and crankset off but got there in the end, and after a swift reface, installed the new external bearing GXP.


Upgraded SRAM 9 speed cassette and X-9 Rear derailleur, activated by transfil flying snake sealed cables.

Truvative GXP Stylo crankset (self-extracting!) and SRAM x-9 front derailleur.

New controls - Hope levers and SRAM x-7 shifters, along with the remote for the fork lockout. Grips are now ODI Lock-On Extreme.

Hope Mono-Mini 160mm Rear brake.

Hope Mono-Mini 180mm front brake.

Now all it needs is a test ride or two to break in the pads and it should be a pretty sweet ride.
