Sweet Jeebus!!!
What a machine - those colours really set it off
A few guys around here are raving about how these pedal like a 4" bike and DH like it's got 8". Let us know how it goes

Very Nice bike

Damnnn. Wow, this is an awesome looking bike! Great job on the build man, I love how the purple complements the yellow, never thought of it like that but it looks sweet as. Definitely requesting a ride report when you've been out on it. :)

Congrats you've made one of the ugliest coloured bikes look acceptable...a mini Nomad to boot.

Blame all that ability the dude on 650b wheels......

Awesome build! Got to ride an alloy bronson and it really does feel great, super plush but goes up like a rocket. And the new pikes are just rad!!!

10/10.

Very nice looking bike mate! Can you give us the details on your drive-train setup? I cant see a front guide in the pics... clutched derailleur? Front chain-ring?

Awesome bike, I'm planning getting a frame as soon it arrives in my local bike shop, let us know how it rides.
Like the chris king hubs, really nice custom quality built.

Yeah its a clutched saint and a 32t wide narrow ring from race face. First ride this morning. So quite. No dropped chain. Did a lap at Smithfield. Felt good. Pedalled well. Descended good. Got back to the car. Less air in the fork. More in the shock. Couple of adjustments to the rebound. Another short lap......amazing. I just wanted it to go on forever. Still needs some fine tuning. Likes to be ridden aggressively. Didnt get anywhere near its limits. Ardent was great on hardpack but average on loose over hard.

that colour co-ordination is impressive, even by my standards!

very slick bike. i presume they are 650B pikes? they dont seem to have as much clearance as 26" forks.
