    research! Its an Onza hub and crankset, Qu-ax alu frame with magura
    brakemounts, Halo Combat rim, Kris holm fusion seat and a huge nokian
    tyre!

  3. Cool frame. I don't think that frame is available here in US. Is it
    aluminum?

  4. Hey!
    The thing above the hub and cranks is a brake lever mount. Yeah the
    frame is a qu-ax aluminium one. It has slick looking bearing holders.

    Ride on!

  8. Awesome looking kit, making up your own Muni from bits is a great way to
    do it, thats what I did. I look forward to seeing it at the Snowdon
    ride!

  9. You're gonna love that alum. frame. Didn't know any comp. save KH was
    making alum. frames, and have yet to see that model in the US.

    We really ought to get some kind of exchange program going so Muni
    riders from both the UK and US can visit each other's venues. I'd love
    to ride on some totally different terrain and I suspect you blokes
    would find the California riding a hoot. I'll get hold of Nathan
    Hoover (since he'll go anywhere, any time to go riding), but we'll need
    a contact in the UK toi figure this out.

  10. Will this be a 24" or 26" Muni when it's built? Also, how long are the
    cranks?

    Watch with those 140s, though, they're really quite short for any kind
    of hilly Muni at all. Or are you doing more XC?

    Really nice everything, though, it looks really really hot! 😎
