Claud butler olympus 2005 and kona hoss 08. Both as hard as nails. I beat the snot out of them all the time and they can take all i throw at them.At a shade under 14st i'm not exactly your average racing weasel either.
I ride a SantaCruz Juliana. Reba WC forks, XTR for everything including rims with tubeless tyres. Monkeylite bars. Pink saddle, grips and peddles. Shes a lovely light responsive ride. Pics of my baby are on my profile.
