    After some time and money and testing different parts I’ve finally finished my bike!
    Can’t wait to get a decent ride on it now. For those interested spec as follows.

    That weighs less than my 5″ trail bike 😕 Think I might need to look into getting a new frame sooner rather than later 😀 Any excuse to upgrade ha, got any pics we can see???

    Im after a 60mm 1.5″ stem of top quality .Any idears .1.5 ‘s are few and far between. I like My D2 but would like a tad shorter.But not as short as 50mm. Its a shame the thompson 1.5 only comes in 45mm

    Gravity Lite 60mm x 1.5″ stem is pretty and mine weighs only 175g.

    Got mine for £17 off ebay 😆

    Truvativ Holzfeller was meant to be light but the 40mm one I have was over 200g and finish is a bit patchy.

    If I hadn’t got the Gravity I was looking at a Syncros.

    Looks good (apart from the stem… natch).

    Looks nice, though I’d be putting some fatter tubeless tyres on there. Those crossmax sx wheels are fantastic, and run great tubeless too.

    Nice build though, I’m still on a 2006 bullit. Great bikes

    I had 2.4 rubber queens on there before I changed to these 2.2’s they looked awsome but a bit overkill for the trails I’m using . There’s like new if your interested? Cost me £90 as there Kevlar bead etc.
    The toilet seat is now shut by the way .
    I might wait to see if point 1 bring out a 60mm stem as there’s talk of other sizes
    Cheers for the comments guys

    Yeh I hear what your saying . Might go for a 50mm but would like to try one first as I think it might close my cockpit up a bit to much. Don’t mind my 70mm but only wish the Thompson 4x was available in 70mm
