Nice i like them sx trails better than the new ones as for upgrading the totems for air in terms of performance that is a down grade. I would save the money for a double barrel out back, That would be a real upgrade

Very nice mate. nicest paint job they did right there.,

 

[Drew.]

If i where going to get back into MTB, i'd definatly be getting an XS/S one of these, they look fantastic. Great example you have there, too!

Ok, when i say road wheelset, what i mean is its a 26" wheelset with road tyres. I do a lot of road k's and just swap the wheelsets about for trails when needed. Recovering from neck injury, so it was the only way to keep fitness and i wasnt gonna buy a roadie!

Are you an interior decorator?

Nice bikes. I like the colour coding.
That is some nice art on your wall. Did you paint it yourself?

 

[Zyphryss]

Stoppers - Code levers with Ultimate callipers

Reject brake set?

 

[pinned--->]

Nice sx. How do you like it with the totems? Bet the air shock goes well.

yeah (!) .. with a highroller tyre track down the middle!

Reject brake set?

Theyre a Toodles reject, i think he bought the ultimates to steal the carbon levers to put with his code calipers. I ended up with these from him a while back. They work well, never had a drama.

Nice sx. How do you like it with the totems? Bet the air shock goes well.

No idea yet, have yet to get onboard! Both front and rear feel great just rolling around the streets, thats about all i can say for now.

Very nice mate.. I had one which i regret selling. Just wondering with the shock upgrade about which way you went in terms of stroke and eye to eye. my sx had a custom leangth of 2.75 stroke so i would either have had to loose a bit of travel and move to a 2.5 " ( and slacken the HA and lower the BB) or go up to the 3".

By the look of the photo its the 2.5???? It would be interesting to know which way you went

cheers

Good Pick up!

Went the 2.5", from 222mm-216mm eye to eye i think from memory.
The one thing i will change due to this is the cranks. Running 175mm at the moment and will change to 170mm

 

[tysongiant]

where abouts did you pick up the frame if you dont mind me asking? im trying to find one at the moment. There are a few larges and XL's running around, but other than that, hard to find !
