That's sooo sweet, very good colour scheme going as well, a marzocchi roco air shock would go well with the colour scheme but it won't add to the performance to much :D

shame about the crash, if you feel that you need someone to look after your bike at all PM me :p :rolleyes: jks

Thats rad, but you need to man up and ditch the dual ring, an Lg1 or G2 would top it off.
Still a sick bike, whats the travel on that frame?

wildcard has to travel settings 5 or 6.5
i would never get up the hill without a grannyring and i hate pushing so im "manning up" by riding back up.we do most of our riding at night with lights.

Its a wild Ride

:DNice Ride bro its a great colour scheme and you've fitted it out with good specs. Nerangs one of my old trails that and the old Mudgeeraba quarry. Riding at night with lights hey. You're a keener man than me. Get well soon bro so you can go out and thrash that ride.:D

Beautiful build, but maybe you should get a 1.5" steertube in place of the bulky Devolution headset. But still, great ride, I hope I am able to get a Wildcard frame going soon-ish, love 'em.

Pfft, not even :p. A MRP Mini G is what you want ezrider.

ive never ridden a fr bike with an air shock - more of a coil guy. put the ti spring on their to keep the weight down and so far i love the shock (no more manitou spv valving). feels great and i havent bottomed on it and its decently pedal friendly (little to no bob) so i like it

That is a beautiful looking bike - bet it rides superbly, too.
You're the second guy I know on Farkin who's had spinal injuries from hitting a tree at speed... take care, guys! And get well soon!

That looks amazing. The colour scheme looks great, the red and white and the spec is awesome. Such a shame you can't ride it for a while, I guess you have something to look forward too.

What are you mainly going to use your wildcard for? Because if you are using it more for 4X and slope style (if you can find any trails) then I would definatley be ditching the front mech and get a LG-1 or G2 as other people have stated.

Yet with or without it looks amazing, shame BOTM doesn't run anymore, this would be a contender.

EDIT: Discard what I said about ditching the front mech, you obviously need it. :eek:
