nice frame but i dont like anything else
nice build, does rear tyre buzz the seat/seat tube at speed?
also what type/size larsen TT is best for 4x?
also what type/size larsen TT is best for 4x?
no man its got like 5-10mm and thats not even slammed
the only buzz i get is my arse against the rear tyre and larsens arnt the best tyre for 4x i keep wheel spinning on mine so im replacing it god knows what with havnt had a look yet but might get another single ply minion front for the rear as they are wicked but if your hearts set on larsens get 2.35s had 1.9s and they were sketchy and also i find fatter tyres give you more grip more confidence and just are more stable in general also sorry for the lack of punctuation i have a habit of doing that alot
obviously it is a good spec because the only bad thing you can point out are the tires and the seat hight
tyres are perfect acctually for me anyway and i like my seat that height to have more clearence underneath me which suits my riding style so in my opinion its perfect because its set up for me and no one else

about 6.3lbs heavy but it feels soo nice and its spot on for me and my riding style and no mate it cromo 
complete bike i havnt weighted yet but it will be about 27-28lbs but i was sick and tired of light parts/bikes cause i break them 
haha that is quite heavy for an xc bike and yer but it was to light the slightest gust of wind and i almost come off thats why i got heavier parts because it makes the bike a bit more stable
that fork might be sketch though I dunno without the 15mm axle. Lots of people use them for 4x though I guess so it should be fine
well ive been running them for nearly a year and a half now with plenty of heavy landings/crashes there fine
mine are QR lol but im getting or gonna try and get some of those fox 831's that are coming out just cause i want 15mm and they look pimp 
The 831 is basically just a 32 float with 15mm axle with slightly different valving. I really don't see it as being a big deal at all.
they have stronger lowers as well but im not getting them anyway im making the sensible choice and going for just some 15mm axel lowers fir me f100's which are only £100 compared to several hundred pounds
thankyou and yer its pretty sweet check out my recent shots of it in my other album named Flow-replaced-bring-on-the-Last-Rufus
thanks dude
a few parts changing on it soon new wheels, its got a new shifter getting some fox 831's on it and some different tyres
yer getting a set of mavic 521 rims on a pro 2 front hub and a true precision rear hub with dt swiss spokes and everything in black
black market bada boom bars, 760mm wide, 1.5inches rise they are my favorite bars ive had, plus no one else runs them in the nps series so i can add another thing to my list of parts people dont have that i do
. yer those forks are sweet and i needed a new pair anyway
ah sweet i was looking at buying a pair for my rig cuz mine are shit, i saw them on chainreaction, yeah i really want a pair of fox forks
yer these are my second pair had a set on my suburban before i sold it in the 3 inch rise version and liked them so got another set for my 4x bike and absolutely love them
