Why has no one started a Spur thread? Got mine in early August and have never been so smitten with any other bike I have owned. Transition Scout V1 was my all time favorite.....Spur is now my all time favorite!!!!
I am getting mine on Friday! I was just about to leave to go slap some money down on a new one. I had the cash in my pocket. I honestly didn't expect on to come up on PB but I checked just before I left and found an XL. After a short talk with the owner, I bought it....now I don't have to wait unitl April.

You bought the same XL X01 build before I could grab it. I even exchanged emails with the owner, said it had about 45 miles and sounded pristine. I was kicking myself for not buying that same bike. I say your posts on the MTBr thread and knew it was the same bike. I got lucky and found a brand new XL GX build on Craigslist here in the Bay Area for $4,500, someone bought the Spur and a Yeti SB115 and kept the Yeti. I lucked out. I am currently building it up the way I want it. Cheers!
3 months in on my spur now , and still cant quite believe how good this bike is , have now had chance to ride it on all but the roughest terrain and in every condition the British winter can throw at you , all my riding buddies equally impressed when I let them have a spin , but today was its finest hour so far, cleaned a tough tech climb. for the first time then dropped my mate on his e bike up and down a loop of our woods , not a single issue to report , not touched the. suspension after initial set up
Has anybody experimented with beefier suspension on one of these yet? A rear shock with a bit more support ((dpx2 or superdeluxe ult) not sure if there would be clearance issues)) and a more stout fork with 140mm travel (like a helm mk2)? I'm super interested in building up one of these frames. I ride mostly enduro style trails, but coming from a bmx background I really like to play around and throw the bike wherever. I'm a pretty smooth rider, but some of the trails I ride have 20-40ft jumps still. It isn't the travel numbers that worry me on this, more so just the level of support I would need to ride said trails with this little suspension. Just thought I'd throw it out there. Cheers!
