What a coincidence! This is a Pic I allways use, if I try to explain friends of mine the Word "Technikkrüppel". And you are the owner of this.....mhhh beautifull mmhhh Bike.........

 

[Stoken]

das wurde mit sicherheit auf den berg mim heli raufgeflogen

 

[Spezialistz]

das einzig coole ist der rahmen. dämpfer/gabel können auch einiges, leider alles sackschwer.
das ding mit dorado, syntace vorbau/lenker, sram x0, dhx air, headleys mit ex729. dann isses lecker.

 

[fone]

passt doch perfekt zum thread-titel.
sieht geil hardcore aus!

"das ding mit dorado, syntace vorbau/lenker, sram x0, dhx air, headleys mit ex729. dann isses lecker"

I see you werent riding avalanche ever... man you cant compare anything to its damping quality and overall performance. With that stuff you mentioned you would **** up the bike completely. I dont mind the weight its not the racing shit. Its built up to work best it can and make you feel nothing whatever you throw at it.

DHX air - buahahaha yeah try it on army... dorado suxx too. man with that kind of stuff it wont last few days of riding...

The whole bike is perfectly weighted, and the geometry is so superious that you can do street tricks on it, manuals, fakies and abu's are really not a problem. My friend is even pedal kickin this baby It weights 27kg but it really feels lighter due to this perfect weight alligment, it flies stable and can handle big dirt jumps!

 

[PIMP]

das ding ist zum droppen,mehr net!

 

[Spezialistz]

27kg?! holy shit, dude. if this one where mine, it would be around 18kg. i would build it up more racing style. avalance is good, but pretty heavy. doubletracks, 3" gazzas? nobody needs this stuff. in my opinion you're one of the guy's, who would ride a supermonster, because you really need it...
"technikkrüppel" is the right name for this thing. well, it looks really hardcore...and the grimecas....no!
i would it build up like this:
karpiel armageddon + fox dhx air or dhx5.0, manitou dorado mrd x-works or fox40, king headset, headley hubs with dtswiss spokes and mavic ex729, syntace superforce stem , syntace vector dh bar and grips, complete sram x0 with road cassette, 205mm hope 6ti in the front, floating 180mm m4 rear, schwalbe al mighty tyres, raceface atlas crank with mrp carbon chainguide, nc17mag pedals, selle italia flite slr. seatpost....choose one. do i forgot something?
here and there a little bit of carbon-tuning. carbon levers, spacer...

but, if you like it, ride it. it isn't mine, but i would like to get such a the frame..

i like it
would love to have a go on that thing

in this forum ur not allowed to react other than "doubletracks, 3" gazzas? nobody needs this stuff." you have to forgive the inevitable mentioning of (super)monster, it is just already affixed to these kids brains.

but its funny every time

 

[The Passenger]

Das Karpiel wäre mir auch zuviel des Guten.

Wie ist der den Berg nur hochgekommen!?

 

[Bergaufbremser]

Na ja an sich schade um den Rahmen. Denn das Karpiel ist ein Super Race Rahmen, wurde ja auch dafür entwickelt und ist nicht sehr schwer. Auch wenn es wegen dem Bender nicht als das beachtet wird.

Die Avalanche MTN 8 ist super. Das Problem ist nur das sie ca. 7 Kilos auf die Waage bringt. Aber es gibt ja auch leichte Avy Gabeln.

@ spezialistz

Warum Dorado ? Es gibt viele günstigere Gabeln welche besser sind.

 

[Don Raul]

Ich find das Karpiel Saugeil! Ich würd nur die Reifen wechseln,3" müssen nicht sein...

 

[Bubba.]

immer derselbe scheiß mit "braucht kein mensch" und so... so ein blödes geschwafel, das karpiel ist ma richtig schick

 

[MaxDamageDA]

Supermonster suxx, it completely destroys geometry and doesnt have better damping than avy does. Its just longer damper monster version , i dont like it, its even not sensitive to small bumps and its harsh on drops cuz first the heavy wheel and lowers hit the ground b4 it starts to compress. Thats why i love usd and mtn8.

Its not built for racing people... Whatever if i dont need such suspension? I LIKE IT! And gazzas rulez, theire slow, thats a fact , but theire eating everything in your way like +5cm of travel and allow you to run 0.7psi making you almost unstopable ;P I love them. Why 24? They lower the centre of mass and helps me in manualing and cornering.

Youre right about those kids, there are a lot of them here in Poland too... I want to see anybody with dhx air in full progressive mode where travel is starting at 5:1 leverage ratio haha

And others, please dont tell me how this bike should be... it should be as it is! I had many many many bikes, frames, forks... im dealing it already. I have few armageddons for sale if interested, one with avy too!

The thing is ive destroyed everything besides few forks ( monsta 2002 - i love them, i only cracked the crowns but its good, cheap to replace with own machined one and stratos s8 - theire really solid! ) and armies and one disco. There was few others also...

I always wanted to have a bike that would make you safe on bad drop and gap landings, feel nothing in the mountains and keep you comfortable on dirt jumps. Now i have all that and this bike will not break after few months of riding, it will probably last through all my biking life! Thats what i love.

Oh an about the moutain, its about 1400m over the sea level. 20km from my city Jelenia Góra. The photo is taken in Szklarska Poreba, it few meters from Czech Boarder Also its not far away from germany, i have only about 200km to Berlin. Polish mountains are beautifull , theres so many place to ride here! This day the photo was taken we were riding multitrail, we made it up the mountain in almost 4 hours... ( itd hard to push this baby for 4 hours with rocky and steepy terrain ) and than almost 5 hours of riding down!

And about armies , i have a S-M black one with custom tuned fox rc ( pictured on second photo with boxxers ) perfect condition for 1700 euro

Also i have M-L one , black too with normal fox rc for 1500 euro

Both can come with avy shock instead of fox with 300 euro extra charge.

Im also an avy dealer here, www.avy.pl ( please add 22% tax )

To get current prices with shipping to germany gimme an email to [email protected] :>

dorado eigendlich nur wegen der optik. also schlecht ist die ja wirklich nicht. ne 888 oder die travis triple ti würden mir auch gefallen.

 

[Bergaufbremser]

Ne schlecht ist sie nicht. Aber sie ist aber auch noch lange nicht mehr so gut wie es immer heisst. Sie war einmal Spitze das ist schon richtig, aber eben wareinmal. Die normale 04er 888 ist ganz klar besser wie eine ungetunte Dorado und auch mit einer getunten kann sie mithalten. Aber wenn man eine Günstig bekommt warum nicht. Durch die niedrige Bauhöhe wird damit so ziemlich jedes DH bike wieselflink.

Optik der Dorade (nur die alte, die neuen gefallen mir nicht) ist klar hammer. Habe auch schonmal ein Bild von einem Karpiel mit Dorado gesehen sah sehr geil aus.

 

[Bergaufbremser]

Das hier ist ganz jut aufgebaut. Wenn der Federweg hinten auf 23cm und nicht auf 30 eingestellt ist, ist es auch nicht so hochbeinig.

[Stoken]

das gefällt mir aj schon viel besser, passt aber leider nicht so gut in den thread wie der andere aufbau

 

[MaxDamageDA]

Yeah i saw the bike while ago, its a beauty, and has well setup besides 888 fork. I would never fit it in me bike... even if anyone would pay me for this.

Its the most shitty thing marzocchi ever created, where are those good times of old monsters and shivers ;/

Shitty damping, crowns thick like paper, cracking arches , cracking dropouts, easy to destroy the dampers with any powerfull bottom out. For that price you could buy stratos s8 or 2002 monsta or even a shiver which weights almost same and works better and lasts much longer. What a crap.

And the frame looks set up @ 270mm travel and almost full linear mode.
