Ideas please!

Rock Lobster:-

Reba SL forks
Full XT running gear except XTR (M970) chainset & XTR pedals
XT splined hubs, DT Swiss Spokes & XC717 rims (2.1 Racing Ralphs)
XT brakes with 160mm XTR rotors
Thompson Elite seatpost
Thompson X4 stem
Carbon Truvativ bars
Ruffian Lock ons
Fizik Gobi

And

Yeti 575:-

Revelation 426 Dual air U-turn with 20mm Maxle
Full XT running gear except XTR front mech
XT splined hubs, DT Swiss Spokes & XC717 rims (2.35 High Rollers)
XT brakes with 203mm & 180mm XTR rotors
Wellgo MG1 pedals
Raceface Deus Stem
Easton EA70 Monkey bars
ODI Yeti lock ons
KSi850 adjustable seat post (yes, super heavy!)

Thoughts please!

LObster – take the Rebas off and fit some rigid carbon forks. You will lose a massive amount of weight and you will be pleasantly surprised how comfortable the ride is. You have a full susser, so go fully rigid with the other 😀

As above but take all the gears off aswell except for one:D

I thought about it but a goosed knee stopped that so a SS is out I’m sorry to say! 😥

change lock-ons for esi grips
thompson stuff for anything lighter
high rollers for crossmarks/aspens/ardents
xt brakes for formulas with smaller rotors

Esi grips spin in the wet.

Bikes are fine as they are. Get fitter and spend the cash on a holiday instead.

Esi grips spin in the wet.

mine don’t.
very comfy and so far outlast ruffian style lock-ons by a long way.
