    Had a Sub5, decided that this was a better, closer replacement than a 5. Decided nice Hope hubs were better investment than bling paint, but now wish for Nuclear Orange or some similar silly colour…

    Just to dig this thread back up…

    Heres mine in her current incarnation:

    2010frame with a 2006 RP3 shock (the 2010 RP23 that came with the frame is utter pants for my tastes).

    This is mine in Chrome Grey. Wouldn't have been my first choice of colour, but then the bike shop wrongly told me that I'd have to pay an extra £100 if I wanted it in a different colour. However, over the last few months it has grown on me, to the point where I was recently devastated when I scraped a big score into the top tube's paintwork. I'll be much more careful next time I lean it up against the wall outside the cake shop. 😳

    Again Disco black, but not my choice as it was second-hand, personally I think they all look pretty good!

    Couple of shots from an early ride in the Hertfordshire Alps a couple of years back. Chrome grey colour, I'm still undecided as to whether I should've got something a bit brighter. Some days it looks classy and understated, other days it just looks dull.

    Ok, admittedly they're not great shots for checking out the colour, but I like them 🙂

    Elaine – Which green is that? And presumably thats the neon green in the last post by Dseenya?

    I ended up going for White with neon orange rims, I have also asked the swing arm decals are not put on as they look shite. Bike should arrive any day which is a shame as a twisted ankle may keep my first couple rides down to short distances.

    Here's mine, just had my first ride with the 2011 van rc fitted on the rear, felt so planted, very impressed. Kept the rp23 for long xc rides but the coil will be on much more.
    Also thinking of a respray in either disco black or electric blue.

    toby1, is that a 7 beside the Orange, how does it ride?
    Jam bo, Totems seem a little bit overkill but I do love them.

    they are dropped to 160mm. I'd rather run lyrics but no spare cash and I had the totems spare.

    latest incarnation. I swapped my 18" frame for a 16".
