Bike Check.. Check.. Check.. Cam's Ti Honzo

3/14/2017

New bike day is the best day right? We think so, thats why were going to throw some pictures up of Cam's new Titanium Honzo.
Picture
"A couple of years ago I sold my Steel Honzo for something that I thought “was a better bike” and I’ve been regretting it ever since. Turns out there may not actually be a better bike then the Honzo, so when the stars aligned earlier this year and the prospects of affording a Ti frame because feasible it was a no brainer. While the initial build is focused on shreddy and durable, there is a “B” build in the works for bike packing so stay tuned for an update on the most versatile Honzo in the PNW. " -Cam

Look at the Ape Index! 
Picture
The PNW thrashes bearings and other moving parts so putting on a Chris King headset and bottom bracket was a no brainer. With this being a year round shreddy and packing bike, reliability is paramount. 
Picture
There is something beautiful about this American Made cockpit. Enve Bars, Thomson 4X stem, ODI Elite grips, Wolf Tooth headset spacers and a Spur Cycles bell. Support local.
Picture
The New ODI Elite series grips use an asymmetrical rubber wrap so that you have extra padding where you need it with out increasing the overall diameter in a significant way. Well try to get a more in depth report once they're a little more worn. 
Picture
The Spur Cycles bell is quite possibly the loudest and most elegant bell on the market. And it meshes great with the new Fox Transfer Post. 
Picture
Speaking of.... the new Fox Transfer post is working out great so far, easy installation and competitively priced, it's looking like it will be a very complementary offering next to the other top posts on the market. 
Picture
The meat of the bike. Set up with four tokens, 70lbs of pressure in the chamber and sprung to 140mm of travel the FIT4 damper Fox 34 is handling all the squishy needs of this Honzo. Plus it matches the seat post #Winning. 

E13 TRSr tires take care of all the traction needs, and them some. These things can stick to water. 

Picture
Ample clearance (Clarence) for dirt shedding with a MudHugger front fender. 
Picture
It's the little things that count. Deity ano valve caps provide that matchy matchy purple touch. Bringing the 90's back yo. 
Picture
Ti on Ti. Andrew Kings Ti bottle cage is the only cage worth owning. If your tired of chucking bottles and want to benefit from a little weight savings then invest in one of these. They last for life. #MadeintheUSA
Picture
There is only one pedal worth owning (Thats not totally true..) and it's the Deity T-Mac. Deep concave, yuge platform and great pin placement, this is as close as you can get to being clipped in with out being clipped in. 
Picture
Prepping for packing, the Shimano 11-46 XT rear cassette should take some of the grunt out of the fully loaded climbs. 
Picture
Picture
Dem clearances doe......
We have a great selection of Alloy Honzo's in stock now, so swing through and give them a check out. All the geometry is shared between the Ti and the Alloy, and the spec is great. We've really fallen in love with this bike! If you are interested in the carbon model then stay tuned, because we will be giving Deriks Honzo Carbon a check soon!

It is important that you maintain your bike at all times. I mean, if you are a regular biker, then you need to be able to do this. If you do not even want to do it, then that is okay, however, you have to be okay with an accident. It takes time to maintain your bike, but all of it is worth it. You would not want to waste your time in a hospital, when you could have done something about it.

The little clip works ok, it could be better, mine likes to come off but I think we tug on them so we’ll have to modify how we attach those too
