I've had this for a few months now. Can't ride it at the moment so, I might as well post about it.
BTR Ranger in their off-the-floor XL size
Best hardtail I've ever ridden.
Fits like a glove. Does everthing. More people should have them.
CABLES NEED TO BE SHORTENED/NEATENED ASAP
It was initially built with x01 but it looks better in XTR.
