Gorgeous - great photos!

But no carbon frame/rims/cranks doesn't = carbon everything

^^Haha, clearly he's taking the piss. I can't see any carbon other than maybe the derailleur cage.

Looking good. Are those Marzocchis air or coil?

 

[hifiandmtb]

Stem spacers. There's carbon in the tyres ;-)

It's all about carbon headset spacers!
The 350cr is air. Came off 55rc3Ti and the 350 feels pretty damn good

Living in Whistler with a killer bike to match... yep fracking jealous

Looks killer, seems the XT setup is a popular one

Nice one mate, love it.

Just finished swapping everything over today from my fluoro yellow '13 Rune frame to a new stealth black frame (warranty) so a similar look.

Spent most of last year in Canada, and stayed in Whistler from Crankworx til Christmas. Will be back as soon as I can organise it!

Cheers
Leon

To be honest I'm not really sure.
fanatik just over the border has them listed as 2100us
defcon in aus say 2600au
so maybe somewhere in the middle?
Canadian bike shop websites has a shitty tendency not to post prices on anything also

Nice, I like.

Interesting your use of Centerlock hubs; did you do this just to be able to use the Freeza rotors?

Yes. Yes I am.

What? Wrong quote perhaps?
