It’s a frame I’d like to try along with the Yelli Screamy. But the price is certainly off putting. They were about $650 with $200 P&P plus import duty. Dealers in the UK want about £850. That’s a lot for a hardtail.
Actually I’d prefer a steel version of the Yelli I think.
Had both Yelli and N9 …….Sold Yelli kept N9 for years ……Yelli was far too harsh for all day or even half a day…N9 was great ..ran it SS rigid and with 120forks ………felt better rigid for me …..would I buy agian …..No …I have a Stooge now and it rides better than the N9 …in rigid form
I thought the Yelli was a bit longer in the TT and a bit slacker. But just checking their website and the are almost the same except the TT and seat tube angle.
Saying that all of the geo stays the same whether there’s a 100, 120, or 140mm fork on it except the head angle. So the chart is utter bobbins.
Mrs stu has an N9 and i have a Yelli.
They ride very similar to each other in my view.
Have you thought about a 2Souls Quarterhorse?
I also have one of those and like it a lot more than either of the Canfields.
Pics you say?
Go on then.

The Yelli is a freaking beast, you build it to do what you want it to do, or you can build it to do everything (Dual position forks FTW).
Sunday 12th April 100km HoNC ride, on my Yelli – no problem.
It climbs.
It smashes trails.
It eats up XC.
Show it the slightest descent and you’ll feel like Danny Hart*.
My Yelli has turned me in to a hideous trail slaying hardcore hard tail monster**. And I love it.
I’m so cool since I bought one that if I were to show you a photo of me, you eyes would freeze. Ice cool!
