Endpoint bikes thread

No sweat, was just curious if there was a tarck code I should have used

Secret buttshake

Nitto/Riv style jawn. Hoping to have U.S. made ones for 2nd batch but not sure

That’s a good problem.

[quote=kevinwulf][quote=Bahamontes]Fuck I thought you were gonna procrastinate a lil more.

Fuck. Want to do this just discussed budget with Ashley to include no new bikes.

I’m totally going to have to sell my trackbike and race the NJS.[/quote]

Sell the Mash. Please.[/quote]

No way bro the MASH is dopesmoke.

tc: less stoked on black

does it really make that much price difference to have one batch powdercoated a color other than black?

Yeah. If it’s a matter of cost, can you just run the numbers with/without and let us know in an email and let us decide if it’s worth it?

Maybe I’m alone in this, but this feels like a bike I’d ride the shit out of and never consider quick-flipping. If we’re already getting a shopbro deal, then a ‘not quite an awesome shopbro deal but still cheaper than getting it done ourselves’ seems fair. I know I’d be OK with it.

I… I just want an all-yellow or magenta bike with Tarckbear on it.

Send me a batch of raw frames and I’ll take care of it.

^^ Spectrum. Right?

would we ever be able to decide on a color?

I’d be fine with any of the Tarck kit colors - Cyan, Magenta, Yellow.
I’d be fine picking it with a game of Rashambo.

[quote=bradencbc]Tarck colorway…

So to keep things cheaper for now I am doing ALL frames in black. However Tarck version will have color decals and fork.

So… I have narrowed down the fork/decal color to magenta or high vis yellow. Sparkles are probable (in the black as well) but not 100% yet.

For those of you who have emailed me and are seriously interested which color do you want to see more?[/quote]

The magenta, please.

Why you gotta do this now?
And, I too wonder why not a frameset–trying to get more than 2 tarckers to agree on a color, much less a whole build, sounds like herding cats.

Best of luck!

Not sure I understand. Why not?[/quote]

Present fork is 395mm

Nah. I know some local dudes that are good, cheap, and reliable. (Maas Brothers) I also know some other dudes that are mediocre, hella cheap, and unreliable.

Bros unless something has changed, I still see frame/fork option right thar on page 1.

[quote=bradencbc] I’m planning on the following:

Frame/fork
Frame/fork/calipers/rotors/compressionless housing
Complete bike 1 Apexish, very basic parts, but good sealed bearing hubs probably to Hed Belgiums or Archtypes, Resist Nomads
Complete bike 2 Rival or 105, mid range build kit, sealed hubs to Belgium or Archtypes, Resist Nomads
Complete bike 3 Force, 3T level cockpit, Fizik saddle, sealed hubs probably to China carbon rims, Challenge Eroica or Almanzo
[/quote]

Well I just want a black bike, dammit. I guess a hi-viz fork would be pretty rad.

Option one and two
cant imagine option two being anything but a great deal even if you dont need the fork.

[quote=wintrotta]flat black or gloss black
i will paint splatter at my leisure if i end up buying it

flat black will make gloss splatter more appealing[/quote]

Are you in my head? I’m about to flat black / rainbow splatter a frame!

Also, emailed.

Really didn’t expect this to come together so quickly & I’m definitely not in bike-buying season right now. Guess I’ll wait for the next batch.
