My new Blue Pig!

Hi,

Just over 2 months ago I had a serious crash that meant I could not ride for a couple of months, which meant I was stuck at home with a stack of bike magazines and access to the internet - fatal!  I had been toying with the idea of building a Blue Pig for a good few months and the downtime from riding gave me the time I needed to do my research!  I tracked down a MK1 Blue Pig frame to the Bicycle Doctor in Manchester, then it was game on!  Over 2 months I bought almost everything on my wish list and this weekend finally managed to put it all together.

RockShox Pike 454's
Formula Mega brakes with 203mm rota's
FSA Orbit Extreme Pro Headset
Gusset Slade bars
Kore B52 stem
Hope Pro2 Evo's with ZTR Flow rims - all in black
Crank Bros split skewers (lovely detail!)
XT rapidfire shifter
XT shadow rear mech
XT rear cassette
Howitzer bottom bracket
Holzfella OCT2 cranks (running as a 1 x 9)
MKC X9 SL chain
Sunline V1 chain device
NC-17 Sub ii Pro pedals
Charge Spoon saddle
Ragley Seat collar
S-Works carbon seat post (had it sat on a shelf in the garage!)

I am REALLY pleased with how the build has turned out, although I am not yet riding off road I did take it for a spin around the village and was very impressed with the ride - can't wait to get it dirty and really see what it is capable of!

All the best,

Lee

Ohhhh gawd, its me new steed Blue Pig!...

Hey Brant and Ragley peeps,

 

With my old XC ways giving way over the last year or so to faster and harder hitting trail riding and my mission for more air this year, I have, on the recommendation of a fellow rider, just finished the build of my very own lovely Skwosh Blue Pig and here it is in all its glory.

 

Spec is:

Rockshox Sektor air’s 140mm QR

Nukeproof warhead headset (on your recommendation!)

Renthal Strata Duo stem

Nukeproof warhead 760 medium rise bar

Hope Eternity seat post with Hope QR clamp (dropper post coming at some point!)

SLX crankset

 

With existing stuff from old bike:

Sram X9 shifters and rear mech

XT front mech

Deore LX hydraulic disks throughout

Ritchey OCR rims with Funn hubs (Hope Pro 2 EVO hubs and new rims coming at some point to future proof it for a maxle front end)

 

Its completely fresh from the build here so some seat and controls tweaks are needed and its still waiting its inaugural run in the local woods (Woburn, MK) as I write but that is happening tonight so...woop WOOOOP....
