Which was my spare 4X bike, but I only rode it once or twice so I blinged it up and gave it to T-A for Christmas......looks really nice now, but we will most probs get some new/lighter forks for it soon which will balance it up better.

Cheers for the comments.........the spec has changed a little since this photo was taken, its now running Chris King ISO hubs front and rear on DtSwiss 5.1's, Controltech Team Issue seat post, Selle Italia 135g Ti/Carbon saddle and Ti bolts pretty much all over it which has taken the complete build rrp to just under £4k

Yeah they are really good mate, I run the 1.9" but to be honest they are a little skinny so best to go for the 2" version (is quite a visible difference in size) or run a 2" up front and a 1.9" rear........also take a look at the Maxxis Crossmark's as they are pretty similar with slightly more tread.

Thought about running a shortened cassette? Chop down your steer too, new seat as well perhaps? 140mm rear rotor?

Steerer is only 1/2" off as short as it can go with that stem, no point in 140mm as 160mm are easier to get replacements.
The above is an old picture when it was first built up so it had a few bits that were just stand in's until the correct bits arrived..........its now running a trimmed down/custom SRP full titanium 6 speed cassette, Controltech Team Issue seat post, Selle Italia 135g carbon/ti saddle, 09 Easton Ea70 bars, Chris King ISO hubs on Mavic all mountain rims, Ti bolts all over bringing the weight to sub 22lbs.
