Thats a nice lightweight build, I don't suppose you have a weight on that beauty? I've always been fond of the SX series, ever since I saw Bearclaw riding one. Nice XT Shadow rear dérailleur too, I want one of those

Yeah, I love the frame Craig, the best purchase I have made bicycle wise, I love it to pieces, and with the new forks it is even better.
Ohh, and Breaka, for 4X styled riding there is no way I wouldn't ride with clipless. They make everything so much easier (Maybe not gate starts) but jump wise, and you can get your power down a lot faster and more efficiently. If you were wanting them for DH, you would want to be a skilled rider, and really, really need them, otherwise don't bother, but they are awesome for everything else.
Edit: To answer your question Nick, it weighs 13kg on the dot last time I looked, so pretty reasonable, light enough for me.

Your correct.
Yeah, it will be my 4X beast. I will use it for the occasional XC ride with my dad, but other than that it is my 4X bike. The best thing about the forks is, because they are dual air, I can let the air in the positive chamber out, and by doing that the forks suck down, so I can have 100mm, or 60mm forks if i like, really i can have what ever travel I like from 0 - 130.
(But I wouldn't suck them down past 80mm)Yeah, it is looking a lot better with the manitous.
My 7inch rotor adapter came in today, (Didn't get to pick it up) so I get to put my new rotor on tomorrow.
