It took a minute to get the frame mostly because of my procrastination but it all paid off today as I got my first ride on the Sultan today. Awesome, totally awesome bike. Coming from a intense 5.5 and a foes fxr 2:1 this is by far my favorite fully to date. The frame is so stiff I realized how flexy muh wheels be. I got the frame thursday and wasn't expecting it so I built it up with some spare parts laying around.
So far it's 30.5 pounds built...

I'm about to order a set of I9's soon as I have a set of crossmax 29ers coming to my shop within a couple weeks. Currently, I have a 80mm reba on the sultan but I already have the 100mm just have to install it. New bars and stem to lower the front end just a tad. Finally, I'm going to throw a set of either new 08 stylos or some noirs....
So excited:biggrin: :biggrin: I'm calling in sick sunday so i can ride three days in a row!
