140-100mm on a Ti frame.....pretty sure I'm always going to have one like this.

I don't like the way this thing looks or the height of the top tube but boy-o-boy does it like the gnar!
Looks "meh" but rides "grrrrrr".

I'm sure its the perfect bike for you but that Bfe looks ridiculous with the 36s on. Not sure the angle of the photograph helps. GW is gonna have a right old rant....

i'm just waiting for my befe to turn up and will be out on it
Posted 5 months ago # -
Gotama...Its terrible with the 36 on at 160. Steers like a barge. Now running at 140mm which is much better

Sov at Cutgate (North America).

This count? C456 with Thors.

the full face adds extra gnar points. Still considering changing it for a blue BFe when I can afford it, not sure if its worth it though. Might just take off the gear cable lugs and get it powdercoated a nice colour. And go 1x9, don't really do much climbing on the mtb any more.

This probably doesn't count nowadays as it's only got 125mm. I think it's very pretty though, and will be the bike I never sell.

Stevelol, that Sov looks nice . What size and type of stem do you have on it? I have something similar and am thinking of changing my 70mm stem for something shorter, but not sure whether a 50mm one would be too short.

Yellow bike by Northwindlowlander, on FlickrDidn't work terribly well, this. Went downhill like a dropped bomb, but was absolutely no fun. (not helped by over-soft Lyriks to be fair). Much better when lightened up.
The replacement, weight weenie ish but still capable of mastering a little gnar.

Another MmmBop
Posted 5 months ago # -
Ah Northwind, it was yours! I remember seeing somewhere on here a yellow MmmBop but couldn't find it anywhere when using the search. Got any more pics? Whilst I really like the green of mine, I've wondered what it would be like in a nice bright yellow

Apparently I get bonus points for the full face- do I have to be wearing it?
It was all yellow by Northwindlowlander, on FlickrSorry orena45, I don't have many pictures of it- I didn't use it very much after I got it coated, tbh I fell out with it a bit. But you can find pics of the frame here:

My Surge
'Tis a beast.
Posted 5 months ago # -
Steezysix like those surges what do you think of it would run it on 150mm revelations and as a 2x10, any chance of a sub 30lb build?
Posted 5 months ago # -
my surge (up there) weighs 37lbs with a couple of differences from the pic (different tyres and a dropper post). if you built it light theres no reason it couldn't come in lighter though - the frame is ~6lbs on its own
Posted 5 months ago # -
one of the first long travel hardtails and still going strong, albeit with some more sensible forks on it. Absolute blast with 170mm forks with 595mm A-C height to really get the front end up:-O
Touch harsh on the rear though

That's what my 7" full sus weighs 0_0 What parts do you have on it?

any chance of a sub 30lb build?
Probably, mine weighs about 35lb with RS U-turn Domains, Superstar DH wheels, dropper seatpost and beefy cranks - all heavy bits of kit. I think it would be doing it an injustice to build it too light though, 'tis a man's bike, built for shredding! I've never worried about (or had) any breakages even on some really rough tracks. for me, peace of mind is worth the extra little bit of weight.
