I really like the blue and fluro red/orange giant at the top of the last page, without the colours on the rims it'd be perfect imo, wish giant would sell decals....

Anywho, 7.5/10 for the trance above, lovely bike but needs more colour imo.

Here's mine finished, only got the shock yesterday, hopefully give it a decent run over the weekend.

Like the stealth look on the Trance, 8/10.

Just picked up my new patrol carbon, possibly a keeper!

love that patrol 8.5/10 easy

Here is my finished Yeti, ignore the different shades of Orange, for some reason the photo shows them as different but in the flesh pretty much spot on.

I've had that same problem with orange decals in photos. Look like a beast, you might as well if put sixc cranks on it given the rest of the spec

So I see, I looked at the g4s but my brain kept saying "why pay more for a weaker crank that's only a few grams lighter" that and I think my weight is more of a problem than my bikes lol

i personally really don't like the fork color....and i think @some point you will get a dropper post Smile

on the other side it is a well working fancy frame with heavy durable parts. (exactly like i build my bikes) give you 7/10 (dat fork xD)

my enduro for 2017. (drivetrain will become hope 10-44 and xtr when the mud is gone)

Nice looking Pivot! 9/10

Here is mine, what do you think? I'm actually not a fan of the frame colour myself, but I'll stick with it for the season.

Wow! Thanks! I haven't had a chance to hit the trails yet as it's still super slippery. I was surprised how easy it is to manual considering the whopping chainstay length. A very light feeling bike. The angles are pretty extreme now as I put on offset bushings just for why not Big Grin

Thanks! Maybe the colour is fine in the summer. It's just too cold and snowy for it right now.
