Bored at work!!Show me your 650B XC race bike to help me deal with it and the weather!!

Here is mine although it has gone back to Giant with a suspect crack…. 🙁

My Ritchey P-650b

Thinking about trying to get a lower stack headset top doodad so I can drop the bars a bit more.

that’s lovely and quite old fashioned looking – long and low, although you could put a negative rise stem on it maybe?

It’s already got a negative stem on, it’s only 6° though. The problem is I’d quite like to keep all the finishing kit matching and I’m not sure if I can get a more negative stem from Ritchey in wet black.

I was waiting for mike to turn up with his bike! Hopefully I can add to this thread in a few months!

What frame is that schmiken????

Some lovely looking bikes! I have only ridden mine 3 times (before noticing the “crack”) but 650B is the way forward for me for sure! I raced 29 last year and just dont like the way they ride…

Im not amazing technically so the little extra rolling 650B gives smoothes out my lack of finesse! 😀

Everyone, the 3T ARX -17° stem would suit the colour scheme of yours…. I know it is isnt Ritchey but the red stripe and decals were easilly removed on mine if you fancied the more subtle look!!

Some lovely looking bikes!

Really?

Its a KingdomBike Double 9.

Thought as I’d recently taken some new photos that I’d update this thread:

Kingdom Double9 –

Converted Scott Spark –

Not used to seeing your Kingdom without bar ends! How are you getting on with the new bars (and the new Spark since I’ve not spoken to you since you raced it)?
