Where do we even start with this! from what was a basic NS Zircus jump bike, to an absolute custom beast!
We first started with a few basic upgrades and mods including the removal of the front brake and replacement of the rear brake with a Shimano Deore hydraulic. This eventually evolved into a full rebuild with new wheels, forks, cockpit, drivetrain and even paint!
The new build specs are as follows:
Frame: 2021 NS Zircus (Custom Painted in a BMW grey)
Fork: Manitou Circus DJ 100mm travel 20mm axle
Crankset: Shimano SLX
Bottom Bracket: Shimano Saint Hollowtech
Brake: Shimano Deore M6100 Hydraulic 160mm rotor
Handlebar: Renthal FatBar Lite Carbon
Stem: Chromag Ranger V2 in Gold
Headset: NS Integrated
Wheels: Hope pro 2 hubs on halo T2 rims
Grips: Raceface Half Nelson
Seat: Burgtec Cloud MK2
Pedals : TAG T3 Nylon w/ replaceable pins
Take a look at the before and after photos below and see for yourself how truly awesome this ride looks!
