WOW, wicked build!
She looks amazing!

How does the shock feel or how do you like the rear shock?
You are now the AM FR master!

Thanks dude, she feels great. The DB Air is amazing, very supple and active. It really does feel like a coil. First ride on her tomorrow, I can't wait.

That is beautiful! Just new a black fork and maybe Sixc cranks (forks for looks, cranks for carbonz and looks!)

Sickest I've seen yet though haha

Thanks man. Sixc cranks is on the wishlist, a black Lyrik would look nice, though I'll be putting an Avalanche cartridge in this one before I get a new fork.

The white is okay really I suppose it breaks it up a little. Mathes the e thirteen and xt decals

I was biddig on some Sixc cranks and they went for a steal f a price yet sadly out of my range.

sick bike! similar set up im looking for once my meta frame sells, what it like to ride? thinking of using it as a allrounder,

Hey dude, the Rune is an amazing frame, handles pretty much any riding. The 3 position dropouts are great, I keep it it the slackest setting and yet I can still climb fairly well with it. It's very stiff this frame and very supple. Perfect all rounder with the right shock.

That is soo nice! Now I know what my next frame will look like built up.

moleman (Mar 23, 2013 at 16:14)

Haha thanks dude. The frame is so nice, feels solid, suspension is great with the DBair.

Really good to hear, hopefully will ride better than my Enduro haha.
Did you weigh the frame before you built it up?

moleman (Mar 25, 2013 at 8:47)

Yeah 6.77lbs without shock and dropouts.

Shuggles (Mar 25, 2013 at 8:55)

Thanks, that's not too bad actually. Little bit heavier than my current frame but worth it for the performance gain.

What did you change?

moleman (Mar 29, 2013 at 15:45)

Switched Reverb out for my Thomson, and switched tyres to Specialized Butcher Control 2.3 front and Purgatory S-Works 2.2 rear. Rides a lot better with these tyres as well.

throw up a pic of that rowdy chain guide sir!

moleman (Nov 30, 2013 at 0:20)

Sure can do. It's different know though, as I cut off the lower guide, so it's now just the top guide and taco.

Solid tire choice!

moleman (Mar 29, 2013 at 15:48)

Yeah these tyres are great, but they're heavy and roll too damn slow. I've switched them out now for Specialized Butcher Control 2.3 front and Purgatory S-Works 2.2 rear. Rides a lot better now, less sluggish and just rolls better now.
