Custom Build Spotlight: SLACKR Titanium SingleSpeed
When we launched the SLACKR Titanium mountain bike, our buddy Conrad crafted a new plan. Pull the Rockshox Pike off his Sendero and step it up from 130mm to 140mm. He turned his Sendero Ti into a full on XC race machine with a SID 120 and a sub 1500g wheelset. Meanwhile, those trail parts landed on this SLACKR Titanium. Utilizing the Pike 140mm and an I-9 Enduro Carbon wheelset, the end result is a very light 26lbs trail hardtail!
Have you built your Sendero on the burly side? Well, it’s a pretty rad idea to move your trail-focused components over to a SLACKR and then lighten up the kit on the Sendero. If interested, we can help you plan it out on both bikes!
Conrad requested a color fade anodizing for his downtube graphic! Violet to Blue, with a matched Violet iRix headset from Industry Nine.
A simple Raceface Turbine crankset keeps cost in check, but is light and stiff.
Decals begone! This Rockshox Pike is now under the radar, but one sweet option in a lighter 140mm package.
ENVE M6 handlebar, Syntace Stem, and a Magura MT7 brakeset all combine for a very light but trail capable cockpit.
