Scott Voltage FR
This has been built up like this for a while now but having made many changes I've finally got the setup I really get on with and the bikes been doing some travelling with me to lots of riding spots over the past three months.

[center]Image[/center]

Specs
Frame: Scott Voltage FR30 (Short) with a short shocked Fox RC4 and Ti 300lbs Spring and long dropouts (170mm)
Forks: 2009/2011 Fox 36 Float RC2 (160mm)
Bar: Renthal 38mm rise (uncut at 780mm)
Stem: Hope DH
Headset: Hope Zero Stack
Seat Post: Hope Eternity
Seat Clamp:
Hope Bolt Up
Seat: Selle San Marco Asida
Cranks: Raceface Atlas FR (165mm)
Pedals: Primo Plastic
BB: Hope Ceramic
Chainring: Renthal (34t)
Gears: SRAM X9 Shifter and Short Mech with Goodridge Cable
Brakes: Hope V2's with Vented Rotors and Goodridge Hoses (203mm F and R)
Wheels: Hope Pro 2 Hubs built onto Mavic 823 UST Rims using DT Swiss Revolution Spokes (Front and Rear)
Tyres: Micelin Wild Rock R's 2.5 UST
Chain: SRAM Hollow Pin
Grips: Renthal
Cassette: SRAM Roadie one
Nuts and Bolts: Titanium

Weight: Guessing around the 35lbs mark

Scott Voltage YZ
I recently went to a Dirt Jump sot and tried it on my Voltage FR, I liked it so much that I felt I needed a bike better suited to the job and it was finally a way I could get back into BMXing without looking like an idiot on a tiny wheeled bike. It's still not finished just waiting on the wheels to be built as there in the shop and trying to get hold of a stem that will work with the 20mm of steerer tube I have. The cranks need chaging but that's for the future.

[center]Image[/center]

Frame: Scott Voltage YZ
Forks: 2006 Fox 36 TALAS RC2 (Very broken but perfect for what I want, stuck at 100mm, rebounds gone and doesn't hold air)
Bar: Raceface Atlas FR Low Rise
Stem: Black Spank Spike/ Black DMR Swarm
Headset: Blue Hope
Bar Ends: Blue Hope Grip Doctors
Seat Post: DMR Lockjaw
Seat Clamp: Blue Hope Bolt Up
Seat: DMR
Cranks: Scott
Pedals: Scott
BB: Scott
Chainring: Scott
Brakes: Hope Mino Mono with Goodridge Hose and Blue 160mm Saw Floating Rotor
Wheels: Hope Pro 2 Evo Hubs built onto 24 inch One Octane Solar 30 Rims using Black DT Swiss Spokes and Blue DT Swiss Nipples
Tyres: Swchable Table Tops (Folding)
Innertubes: Lightweight Scwable
Chain: KMC BMX
Grips: DMR
Cassette: 12 tooth Gusset Single Speed Cog

Weight: Guessing around the 24lbs mark

Looking at DMR cranks and BMX Sprocket and Blue Hope BB to finish it all off sometime in the future.

Will be replacing all the bolts with blue ones and trying to find a blue bore cap.

i had this problem so i changed the head set to a crank bro's iodine and the stem to a spank Royola and they fit perfectly

i previously had an fsa pig and the cup height was too big

My problem was I had a set of old 36RC2 TALAS forks which were about million times better than the Marzocchis that came on it but the steerer is only 160mm long. I measured and calculated lots of times and knew it would work with a 30mm or less stack height stem and the DMR Swarm is 30mm and the Spank Spike is 25mm and both I can gert through my LBS.
