Yep, here it is, built up in all its glory. Being that i work in a shop, i could not bear to leave it stock. So far, it rides like a dream, its so stable that it is rediculous. Ill be racing it this season too.

oh god, its the defination of a beast, i believe it weighs 46 LBS. I didn't really care about weight when i built it, and it shows. It has the stock 5th element rear, it rides nice, but i might upgrade it to a DHX coil. I hear those are the pimp sauce on friday nights.

Well, i only payed employee pricing on everything, so it was considerably less than retail, but everything there i got for about 2K, including the fork.

I work at sport chalet, but i pro dealed it through sport chalet. I did not buy it there, that would have cost a lot more. And i love the way the shiver rides, it is incredible.
