Looks sharp..can't wait to hear how it handles...Any geometry details?
Did you hit the lottery, or what? ;P
You didn't want a 29/650 hyena monkeybutt?
Do the bolt tabs on the chainring not clear the thicker part of the spider? A file and a couple minutes of time can fix that. I have had to file some chainrings and bash guards to get them to fit new xt and xtr cranks.Still have a bit to go on the build.
My 32T Chainring I bought (new) won't fit on my XT cranks. Gotta get one that fits and then just run cable and housing for the front and rear derailleur and she'll be ready to rock and roll.

Huge thanks goes out to you for helping finish the build!!Looks great...enjoy!
I dig em Bernard.nice bike Mark!
how do you like does bars?
Travis - this is a demo bike (that I get to ride when others aren't).Awesome. Super nice. Is this your own personal ride or a demo? If it's yours, I might be interested in it when you move on to something else. :biggrin:
I'd say yeah - sort of - I think it was designed with the idea that it will work great at 100mm but also will be plenty fine if a rider wants a more XC feel to it with 80mm of travel.Was the frame designed to be used with a 100mm fork?
So he prefers the steeper head tube angles...that's awsomeI'd say yeah - sort of - I think it was designed with the idea that it will work great at 100mm but also will be plenty fine if a rider wants a more XC feel to it with 80mm of travel.
The bike features a REBA SL UTurn so folks can set it anywhere from 100mm to get that quick trail bike feel, or all the way down to 70mm if they desire for a super quick XC feel to it. I figured this fork was a good fork to utilize for the role this bike will be playing as a demo bike.
With that said - I dig it best in 100mm mode for general trail riding.
Designed to be quick and responsive yes.So he prefers the steeper head tube angles...that's awsome
The Butt isn't a "stock" frame? It's custom?Designed to be quick and responsive yes.
But again - any of these can be customized per rider preferences/fork preferences etc.
Stock = suggested geometry. Can easily be tweeked and modified to customer preference.The Butt isn't a "stock" frame? It's custom?
Indeed they would!Man my old cranks would look killer on that bike!
Yep - Ted's still welding!!!ted wojcik frames... used to drool over those in the mid 90s... still do i guess
