Those Kahunas are rad, just built one up for a customer the other day. The stays deserve more attention than they get. Super burly for an XC bike.

What is the 167 like? Is it enduro-ish? I'd imaging it's quite hard on the uphill....

As a mini-dh, park or freeride bike it's super tight. I can't really comment on it's enduro-ishness since mine is set up for freeride. Rigid post, not super low gearing and a really plush & linear suspension tune make it hard for me to judge if the poor climbing performance is a function of setup or inherent to the design, but it's not really designed for that anyway.,

Thanks!

For a DH bike, it's pretty fun, versatile ride. I think the short stays and 26" wheels help keep it playful. Not as stable as some other DH bikes, but can really be thrown into a corner. Climbs fine. The straight seat tube help there. I have this bike at 35 lbs now, and am using it as my burly trail bike.

Why did you get a new set of chain stays? Did they break or just too scratched?
