Zerode Katipo SLS.

Looks hot. Any plans to go back to 29er or happy with the current set up?

Very happy with the current setup. It took me about a year and a half to settle on it after running all the varieties.

I have just gone back to the 160mm link though with the full 27.5 and that's playing nicely.

This is now in limbo... It'll go short travel all around in about a month when the new frame arrives. But until then, I thought I'd try the Suntour Triair2 on it. Also had the rear rim replaced after cracking a rim at Buller a few weeks ago.

 

[Rorschach]

Hang on - new frame?

 

[Ultra Lord]

Yeah we need details @wkkie

Yeah we need details @wkkie

Custom made, Australian builder. Gear box. Of course… and possibly smart shift. Oh. And I think steel. These are the things I’ve gleaned.

oooor. It’s just a giant Reign.

Yeah we need details @wkkie

Australian made, steel, custom geo, Pinion, belt drive, high pivot, 150 - 200mm travel using 230 - 250mm shocks and green!

Mostly correct, but no smart shift. I'll keep this all mechanical.

Working to the same philosophy.

Can't wait to see. Woods frame by any chance?

Yeah, it is a Woods frame. Here's a few shots during the build.

I'll be picking it up at the handmade bike show in Williamstown in a few weeks.

I should really start a PYR. I mean I've at least got the grips and pedals to get it started!

PYRs have been started with less...

 

[Wake Jake]

Big fan! Looking forward to the build. What geo numbers did you go with?

 

[Tubbsy]

Very steampunk. A PYR with more details would be very nice

 

[wkkie]

Thanks all. I'll go with a PYR a little later if I get time tonight.

Is this a first for a high pivot belt drive?
