A few pics of my new Heckler (finished at last!).
Many thanks to Graham of Slam69 for fitting the forks/headset.

Nice! What sort of weight do u think it is?

Nice build, looks like it can take some abuse!

Cheers fellas, it weighs less than my step-son’s “full suss” mtb from halfords! 😀

should have paid £500 more and got an Orange5 ahem 😉

That looks fun, where you taking it tomorrow?

That is some serious amount of laundry…

(nice bike BTW)

Nice, not sure about the colour of the grips though

the new hecklers dont have the gusset on top of the top tube,whys this?

On baby duty tomorrow slowrider! won’t be til next weekend probably 🙁

Very nice. Also I like that box with the mad staring eyes.

Welcome to the club 🙂

Great Colour!

that is fit!!!!!!!!!

Mmmmmm, nice 😛 – top marks for colour co-ordination! . . . I like the grips.

I got mine in the summer – all black except for white Fox forks. First ride was Mountain Mayhem where it felt like noone could catch me on the downs! Awesome bike. Cant wait to take it to the Alps this summer if I can.

Thanks again people! Can’t wait to get out on it!

Thanks again people! Can’t wait to get out on it!

Got mine last week.
A great bike, you will love the ride!

Very nice indeed Darren – is that a med or a large?

Getting ready to place an order me thinks! 🙂

Nice. ride it till you kill it!

looks a ton of fun!

Thanks fozlett, it’s a large frame. I’m 5’9″ and it feels just right.
Standover height is a bit comfy though.

that’s one “HULK” of a bike, got a bit of green envy 😉

Cheers Darren.

Think that’s the size for me too – does seem to be the norm with Santa Cruz to go up a size to what you would usually ride.

Think you’re gonna have fun!! 🙂

All off the above builds are very tastefully done! Very nice!

DarrenH would you mind if I asked what it cost?

Sorry Blower, can’t help you with that one.

Timc, about £2,600 roughly (cough!)
mostly funded from ebay and selling my rockhopper (towards the forks!)
Still needs a nice pair of dmr vaults though. 😀

its a nice bike! did a shop build it or did you source things seperate online?

they are good bikes. nice green.

Green Hecklers are ace… 🙂

Just to balance things up here’s a black one…

Changed the seat post to a Joplin since this pic.

Good choice DarrenH!!

Hecklers will always be evergreen 🙂

Tim, the Lbs did me a good deal on the price of the frame and forks.
They also fitted the headset and forks for me, couldn’t afford to be buying all that kit as well!
I bought the parts when I’d saved each amount of Money up.
Had to be very patient!

The green is cool, but I’m liking Itheisinger’s black one too.

Carter – picked up second hand from a bike shop in Amblecote by the looks of it…….???

No, from my LBS in Stourbridge 😛

Heh Heckler on a towpath!!!

Carter, two wheels is Amblecote, Stourbridge.
That was my mates bike I have ridden for the last two years alongside that bike. Enjoy

ahh my mistake. i thought stourbridge was stourbridge 🙂
i’ll do my best, it is a great bike 😀
