50p to BearBack… exactly same spec and geo as ‘unisex’ model, just a better colour scheme.

 

yeah 3 levers there, for dropper and shock (I think, not read up on everything yet)

Crack not lined up correctly for pic.

Possibly only one crank.

Seatpost clamp is facing forwards instead of back.

And the seat post, maybe.

Tyre valves lined up with blurb instead of under the first X of Maxxis.

You've left all the spacers on the stem.

'orrible blob on the seat tube

Helmets are available to match in the "purple unicorn" too. We have two in our household.
IIRC, saddle and grips might be the only spec variations.

Bike is pretty much straight out the box, fettling will ensue this weekend. 

Have a purple helmet already. Well, 2. May get some matching fox decals for forks

What is it? 

 

I'm on the fence looks wise. One one hand the clean look is good. On the other hand, I'm not sure I like not seeing the rear shock.

 

Not sure I could cope with that cockpit either, considering I always change some aspect of my cockpit.

 

Still, nice bike, sure it will be ace 👍

Scott Contessa Genius ST 910.

 

seeing as my last fs is 20 years old, everything on this is new to me. Clean/hidden shock was a big selling point for me

You haven't got a complete rear tyre.

@STR, you can switch away from the Scott bars/stem, although this version is a one piece, you could still swap the bar out for any other combo with cheap parts from acros.
I run a 50mm FSA stem with a one-up bar on mine.

Dropper travel appears to be less than fork travel?

Is the front tyre on backwards?

This one of the balfe bikes deals? I've been trying hard not to order one one cycle to work! Curious is the shock tune different?

its not for me to judge how you spend your weekends, but as long as you enjoy your purchase

You appear to have bought a real bike instead of one of those stoopid gravel things.

Well done.👍

Now cut your grass you slacker.

You didn't go to Specsavers before clicking buy!

I think I like it, not sure about the stem though. Enjoy!

Presume there is plenty of space for battery/motor in the gargantuan BB/downtube?
