Yeti 5 alloy in Ano Black. Just had the first shake down ride and am loving it. Rear wheel seems very ‘planted’ when climbing and it is very easy to pop the front wheel off stuff.

Bits to follow;
red floating Hope discs (just for the colour)
K Edge anti chain suck device
Fat Albert rear tyre
Forks to be dropped to 130mm

Nice!

Ano black Yeti? Oh yes.

Just been up AC for a test? How was it on the new patch? Snice by the way.

On the new ‘rocky’ downhillish section – excellent. My old ASR Yeti tended to plunge head first off everything. This seems much easier to manual.

Frame bought from the bike chain with cracking service.

Are you John Buchanan of Brizzle ?

what seat post is that?

Lovely, but why isn’t it an orange 5? 😉

I’m Spartacus – actually I am John (hello?)

Its matt not shiny

Shininess is a state of mind.

what seat post is that?

Looks like an x-fusion hilo

Hello John. Remember little old me ?

is that Foes / Yate / Hope disc braking second best ever present / BWP scruff?

nice bike mister. Needs some white bits to balance the forks tho 😉

ooo pretty. How is the K-edge thingy? I want one but it’s bloomin expensive for what it is.

One of the nicest looking bikes I’ve seen on here.

Does anyone else see that sticker on the fork in Pic#1 and read it as “Not In Control”???

ull be dodging puddles!
