So here's my new bike. No ride report etc, sharing because I think it's nice!

Looks nice. Is the front wheel turned slightly, or is the back end bent? 😀

Well it is an intense so it could well be bent. More likely to be cracked somewhere though 😆

Sex on stick. I've been waiting for these to be imported. Did you manage to demo before buying? Where did you buy and what deal did you get?

Cracked. Or cracking - it certainly looks it!

I like that! Would have had black forks and saddle personally, but I'm really OCD about colour matching 😆

JJ I got it from moose cycles who got it in from America for me. Didn't manage to demo one as they're so new there's none around. A calculated risk hopefully! It was frame only as I had all the other bits from another build and moose did me a decent deal.

Black saddle is in the garage waiting to go on and forks will be changed soon. Not sure whether to go x fusion trace or bite the bullet and shell out for fox 34's. they seem so expensive....

would mentioned the rim - tyre logo alignment, but I suppose the frame alignent is the bigger issue here 😉

Cheers squealer. Now you have the frame I reckon you are committed to give it what it deserves - shell out for the foxes. I still struggle with the price here in pounds is the same as it is in dollars in the US. If only there was a sure fire way of getting one here without paying all the charges.

I was actually going to buy the frame and then buy a canyon nerve which are very good value with fox float kashima strip it to build the intense and then flog the frame.

Let us all know hoe she rides
