Rockhopper Frankenbike

Playing around today….it’s like one of those projects people start when they are high or something…dunno if I’ll go all the way with this as I’d need either a new RD or new front brifter to make ‘er work (damn 1:1 vs. 1:2 cable pull)….on the bright side it’d be a disc braked ‘cross’ bike

Mud ‘n grit ‘n stuff

Is the best ferreal. Pre-injury shakedown ride through Forest Park, making sure the lube/oil/filter/new SLX crankset and Hollowtech BB (look so dope on the bike) install I gave the newused Rockhopper Comp 29er was up to par. So far so good, even if it required an additional hour of post-ride lubing and cleaning.
