Not the greatest photo, but I'm pretty much done my Trance build. Just waiting for the snow to melt so I can shred some trail! I've gone for a "enduro"style build, with a SR Suntour Auron TA (140-160mm), Rockshox Monarch Plus RC3 for the bigger hits and then finished it up last night with Zee brakes. I tend to ride a lot of all-mounatin trails but my buddies like when I can come along and ride with them at the bikepark. I can't wait to see how this bike rides.

Well I'm in Montreal and the past 48 hours we've has some really warm and rainy weather. It helped get rid a lot of snow. I've also been getting my fix commuting to work on my hybrid for the past couple of weeks. I just can't wait till I can get my Trance out in the dirt.
How's it for everyone else?

We've gotten maybe 60 or so inches in the last 2 weeks or so. And now that ski season is rover, time to make money and buy a new Trance frame. Psyched that I have the opportunity to get a new trance build.

Like one on mine. Feels good at 150mm. Probably going to do a 150mm Pike on my new Trabce if and when I get it.
