As the parts came through the door, the kids and I started to build.
Starting with the bottom bracket, litepro crankset and flap handlebar. I wanted a mtb bar with a 30mm rise but I received a flat bar 🙄.
As the hammerhead has a German A suspension, the headset move up by~3” so Not having the rise is not too bad and I had to cut the steer tube 1.5” shorter compared to the smooth hound.
then, chain, derailleur, cables, handles etc.
Saddle, pedals and mudguards are still missing. I might also add a chain tensioner.
Once fully assembled and tested, i ll give it a dip clean and relub everything
the Orange/gold theme is a reference to the original hammerhead which had an Orange frame (and the cables were free 😅
