 Did you see the 9.9 27.5+ I built for a customer? Just replaced some whisky 9 carbon rims to it. I can't wait till it tries up. I am so stealing it from him for a rip!! And can't wait to see it built up! What size wheel you going with?

 Just had a look and holy shit that looked badass. How was the clearance with those tires?
This will be a 29" more xc-oriented build. Plan is to build it light and fast as f*ck for the riding I'll do on it 95% of the time (trails here are sand/hardpack with few rocks) and then later on get some cheaper burly wheels/tires so I easily can swap and even take a few bikepark laps.
But initial build will be RS1 120mm, DT Swiss with Dugast tubular tires, XX1 and dropper. Already catching shit for making it such a lightweight build haha but that's how I want it since it'll see more xc-ish trail riding just for fun/training than hucking. Really looking forward to rip it hard with a heavier spec too though, seems to be a frame you can do basically anything on!

 Pretty much! 2.8" out back had plenty of room. Such a damn ride bike! Hurry up and build! Taking Session apart for sale today. Sad day.

 Good to know for future reference, I have a feeling I'll keep this frame for quite some time! Haha I do my best but this has honestly been a pain in the ass with order delays and stuff like the front hub I want being made right now and not released in some weeks time and blabla..
Sad day but what are you getting to replace it?!

 Nothing. Just keep my slash and prolly throw the 180-150 Lyrik DPA on it and call it. Needs to go on diet at 28 she chunky! Damn I should have pulled the trigger and got the carbon one!!
