A few weeks have gone by since my Beast showed up and now I think she is ready for some upgrades. Been ordering a few parts online to transform her into "The B3AST".
Stock Mongoose Beast with some decals removed and greased up.
OCC chopper wheel with SA 3speed SX-RB3 hub from Kratefest 2012.
Since the hub came with nothing else I needed to order a few parts for the build. I got all these from bikeparts.com.
First ordered a Mark III indicator chain, a new axle fulcrum (thought I needed it), new chain guide, and an full indicator chain cover.
A new 3 speed twist shifter.
Now for some braking power. This hub only works with band or servo style brakes. So I decided to order me a new band brake from ebay.
New brake cable/shifter housing and also a new dia-compe brake lever.
Last but not least I also ordered a black aluminum water bottle holder.
If anyone can help me on what length of spokes I would need to make this hub work on "The B3AST" I would really appreciate it.
