Just put my old Soul back to a half decent spec having neglected it over the last few months, since stripping most of its bits to build up my Enduro:

The paintwork is looking a little tired these days but can't quite decided whether to get it re-painted or replace it with one of the new ones (or a BFE) and sticking Pikes on.

My Soul with Pikes on is just great.

Mind you a BFe would be as well. Far stiffer than the Soul though

what tyres are on it?

They're 2.2" S-Works Captains. Not ridden them yet but thought I'd give them a go having run Eskars on the Enduro. They seem reasonably light as well - the bike was 29.0lbs with my old Conti Verts on it and is 28.4 with these.

You could probably just stick a pike on and ditch those spacers without noticing too much difference!

I might borrow the coil Pikes from my Enduro for a try however I'm not keen to run long-term like that as the version I have isn't certified for 140mm forks, unlike the new one.

Good grief, Steve, your Soul is older than mine..!

I think I've had it since something like 2004 and it was 2nd hand then!
