Nice, looks like a fun mini dh bike you've got there, enjoy.
looks ace Rob...

Very nice. Nothing ugly or fancy-coloured on it. Looks purposeful.
Think of us all cooped up indoors.
Go and ride it!
Looks very nice,just needs to get dirty....
Thanks for reminding me to take the dog out to lay a cable.
Contrast is the reason white bikes are harder to photograph. Expose for the white and then stop down a touch + have your bike against something a bit brighter.
Bike looks pretty good.
Looks good.
Camera on tripod with self timer FTW
..........looks nice to me, good work fella!
I'll give it until the first week of February
Looking forward to an update on that if you would, when you've ridden it a bit.
Ticks all the boxes for me.
Nice...ride her hard!
needs ragging the sh!t outa 🙂
Soooo can't wait until tomorrows ride and the Saturday 🙂
Essentially the bike i loved most was my prophet, slack as and the right "fit". I have tried to find something that felt that right but with a 30.9 seatube for my beloved joplin. This is it!
Nothing wrong with that mate, I couldn't afford a Nomad so I have a Butcher with Van 36 RC2 Kashimas , Flows on Pro2s, Thomson, X9 so pretty similar spec. Loving my Butcher, one day I will have a Nomad Carbon!
why how much are the nomad's compared to a butcher?
my mate has just bought a butcher frame,what geometry difference is there to the two?
About 600 quid, think the nomad is .5 degree slacker but may be wrong!
Saying that very pleased with the Butcher it's a lovely bike, an improvement on my old Heckler.
That is just the frame by the way
aye think the butcher will be better than the heckler for him,i told him to get it so hope it suits him...
butcher is more of a heckler with a link

The Butcher climbs amazingly well, it has a low compression tune shock with so really does pedal very well, make sure you mate runs between 15-20 mm sag though, no more than 20 otherwise he will be too far into the best bit of the travel. Great bombproof bike, I use a tapered fork and chain guide with mine makes it a real burly AM rig.
dfferent angles though the butcher
Nice looking bike that, enjoy

The Butcher is slacker, has iscg05 tabs, tapered head tube and comes in more colours than the Heckler.
The Butcher is slacker,
yep!
