Chaotic Death Project


cotic bfe max: calver death project

My first love...gone. But love is fleeting...

**UPDATE**

On August 9, 2020, Chaotic death project is now gone!  On a whim, sold the frame...I'm sure it'll come back around sometime...


So...I get a text one day "so how much for your bike?"  Now mind you,  I know who this is, but not sure what they are talking about.  So I run with it 

Me: "what bike?"  

Them: "Your Solaris Max...how much?"

Me: "ummm...it's not for sale"

Them: "Well, if it was, how much?"


*heck...if I can get what I need from it, I guess everything is for sale?


Me: "This much......$$$


Them: "Done!"


WTF just happened!?  Anyway...someone got a great bike!  An amazing bike!  My first hardcore build.  The best of the best...almost.  But...such a damn nice bike!  It will be missed.


But no sooner than the money was sent to me, the next day the new "Death Project" was ordered.  The ALL NEW COTIC BFe MAX!  And best of all?  Bright blue!  The color I always wanted in a bike!  


Meant to be?  Maybe.  Sure.  YES!  There is already going to be some sick stuff on this bike!  Stay tuned..it's going to be wild!

COTIC is the bomb!  I've had 2, now 3 and they are amazing!  So when this one came out, I love long travel and this beast is it!  160mm of fun!

My buddy online mentioned BEAST, along with Candy Ray, so I got both and put the Beast on the Beast!  Made in Germany!

Got a good deal on them, and they are pretty highly rated.

I went back and forth, but then wound up putting Magura on this build.

Well, the MRP lasted one ride.  Great fork, but...just a DVO guy.  So just picked up another DVO!  My favorite brand by far!

Supposed to be state of the art.  And I like "new stuff".  So why not!  I love their brakes, so we'll match the drivetrain.

THE best rubber I have used so far...but, I never got a chance to really try the Maxxis on Enduro Death Project, and have yet to build my Carbon Death Project with the Goodyears..so til then?  These rock!

I ran external this time just for fun.  And it's easier to adjust vs internal.  I'm sure I'll replace it, but just wanted something a bit different.

I like running these and this is the best I've come across in a while!  And it's the mid-level one to boot!  They make a carbon version as well...

I use DVO on a lot of builds.  This one replaced the MRP Coil...just didn't care for it.  DVO...smooth and supple!  Love you guys!
