Maybe the Fortezza's will be easier to keep clean, or you'll be more diligent than I was, or you won't care if they don't look white white... </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=3835#post-6917 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 23:05:20 +0000 EastCoastRoadie 6917@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>I have white tires on one of my PXs (as well as white bar tape). They look sweet, and white is fast! They pick up a bit of dirt on the road, but not enough that I wouldn't put them on my Compact. Go for it. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=3835#post-6769 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 17:55:22 +0000 Steve 6769@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Just curious, can't pass up a local sale on white or gray Fortezza Tri-comp tires and was thinking that the white sidewalls may look sharp on a Vamoots. Bike is in the process of being fit and ordered, so I have to make the choice without it here. Anyone use white? How do you like it? (I know it will get dirty but don't care about that). I thought that white bar tape, cables, and tires may look sharp and they would match the decals. On the other hand, it may look like a 1930s car. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=956#post-6613 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 07:54:35 +0000 TR 6613@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Ahh OK.<br /> I have always used Armorall.<br /> Similar outcome. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=956#post-6486 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 13:40:21 +0000 teamfubar 6486@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Pledge is just a waxy furniture polish in an aerosol can.

The Mercedes is going to look so much better with Mr Moots on it !!!) </p> <p>And then get the Pledge out ??</p> <p>Or leave it and cope with the scratches ? This is the seatpost, NOT THE FRAME, I would never want to alter that in any way, it is just so lovely. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2496#post-5153 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 17:16:18 +0000 Drdan1 5153@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Thanks for the clarifications, Jon! </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2496#post-5131 Tue, 27 Dec 2011 05:00:10 +0000 JonC 5131@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Gents,<br /> We can add things...(cable stops, water bottle boss, disc mount), but we will not remove anything that has been welded onto the frame. It will leave a mark and a possible weak spot on the frame. We cannot remove water bosses and move them.</p> <p>We can fix gouges and minor cosmetic issues...major surgery, not so much.</p> <p>As for the faceplate on a stem, we don't recondition them, but for a fee they can be replaced with a new one.</p> <p>Let me know if you have any more questions.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Jon@Moots </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2496#post-5122 Mon, 26 Dec 2011 20:02:10 +0000 29ner 5122@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>It's not so much the leaving of telltale signs - the 'blast' medium would get rid of that - but it's the time and effort required to do so. Moots (and any bike builder) is gearded towards building, and the adding/welding of tidbits, rather than removing them. Those welds are pretty tough and meant to hold things 'on' a frame. Cutting, grinding, filing, and sanding down even the most simple and small weld can be very time consuming...and those tubes aren't thick - any potential slip with a grinder, and you've now got a hole or a gouge to deal with. The workers there would have to be extremely careful not to over-do it. </p> <p>Now there are ways to fix holes, gouges, replace tubes, etc., but Moots doesn't do that (or shouldn't), it just adds tons of work, man hours and money to something that shouldn't be done in the first place. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2496#post-5119 Mon, 26 Dec 2011 16:42:22 +0000 Drdan1 5119@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Gotcha, teamfubar; thanks for your answer...! </p> <p>I didn't think that they would remove cable stops, as I'm assuming that in doing so, there would be telltale signs left. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2496#post-5114 Mon, 26 Dec 2011 12:05:57 +0000 teamfubar 5114@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>They can add stuff to the "outside" of the frame (cable stops, fender eyelets, etc.) but I don't think they can/will add anything that they have to drill the frame for, like a water bottle boss. Also, they won't remove anything like cable stops, brake bosses, etc.</p> <p>Also, regarding the faceplate, if it is aluminum they won't refurb it. When I got my Cinco redone, they did the Ti parts only. But, you can buy a new one here: <a href="http://moots.myshopify.com/collections/other/products/moots-colored-bits" rel="nofollow">http://moots.myshopify.com/collections/other/products/moots-colored-bits</a> </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2496#post-5108 Mon, 26 Dec 2011 07:33:16 +0000 Drdan1 5108@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>If I were to have a used Moots frame in good condition sent to Moots for reconditioning, can certain braze ons (water bottle eyelets, fender eyelets) and cable stops be removed and/or placed differently? I've read enough posts here and elsewhere to glean that the frame comes out looking pretty much as new after Moots gets finished with it. I'm interested in knowing whether the removal of cable stops, etc. leaves indelible marks on the frame, something even a Moots' reconditioning and bead blasting can't fix.</p> <p>What can be done, and what can't be done or expected? Lastly, If a Moots stem is sent back, can the faceplace also be reconditioned.to look new?</p> <p>Thanks for the responses! </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2028#post-4564 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 15:22:57 +0000 JonC 4564@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Not a good idea all around....bad geometry, messing up a perfect bike....the cross gods would roll in their graves.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Jon@Moots </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2028#post-4531 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 02:21:19 +0000 MTBDad 4531@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>I have a Smoothie that I no longer ride that I would consider selling if you're still interested. 18" full ti. The stock 5th element shock was replaced with a Fox RP3 from PUSH. Currently set-up as a 69er with a White Brothers rigid fork, but i have a PUSH'd Fox Float if wanted. Haven't been actively looking to sell, but it is SUCH a waste to have such a beautiful bike not being ridden. I have converted to 29" wheels for MTB. pics easily available upon request. Currently set-up with a really nice 1x9 set-up. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2028#post-4486 Thu, 17 Nov 2011 05:42:33 +0000 herc49miths 4486@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>"Having suspension fork on road bikes will not be able to take the additional loads created by the fork" </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2028#post-4416 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 12:54:37 +0000 teamfubar 4416@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>It will mess up the geometry, aesthetically it is wrong, the frame may not be able to take the additional loads created by the fork, hardly anyone builds forks with canti-post mounts anymore, so unless it is a disc frame, the "individual" will have to use a disc in the front and a canti in the back, which adds a new wheel (or at least a hub and wheel build) into the equation.</p> <p>My question is why? Why does this person want to do this? Personally, it bugs me when people get a SWEET ride like a Psychlo and then put flat bars on it or bastardize it in some way. (Again, I want to reiterate it is a personal problem.) </p> <p>Not long ago there was a Moots Smoothie for sale on eBay and it was going cheap. I thought I'd check it out for my wife. When I opened the ad, I found this bike with a high-rise stem, HUGE comfort bike style riser bars, bar ends that pointed to the sky, a giant comfort bike saddle and a post mounted bike rack. AAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH. Why? Why just not get a comfort bike? Why buy a Corvette ZO1 and festoon it with a roof rack and snow and ice tires? Why not get the right tool for the job? So, if this individual wants more comfort, why not get a mountain bike (with bigger, lower pressure tires and a suspension fork) or a comfort bike?</p> <p>Sorry for the rant. Hopefully this will help persuade this individual. </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=2028#post-4409 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 03:26:57 +0000 Pzzamakr1980 4409@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>So there is an individual who wants to know why putting a suspension fork on his cross bike is bad. I gave him my reasons which amounted to bad geometry. Anybody have anything else they would like to add. This is a PsychloX. Thanks </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=1427#post-3636 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 14:09:03 +0000 JonC 3636@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Couplers...</p> <p>We don't offer them on the Vamoots RSL or the PX RSL. On the Vamoots RSL the tubing is butted...therefore no couplers there...on the PX RSL same, plus the shaped top tube will not allow.</p> <p>MX RSL....yes, the couplers are an option. The top &amp; down tube on the MX RSL are not butted due to impact and denting on the much thinner tubes. The seat tube in butted and the top and down tube are thinner straight gauge (non-butted) tubes. The couplers add 8oz. or a half pound to any frame.</p> <p>Thanks,,</p> <p>Jon@Moots </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=1427#post-3628 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 05:48:03 +0000 Full Mootion 3628@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>It's in the gallery.
