I have just built this up and I love it! A few bits to sort, forks are leaking slightly, brake hoses need shortening and Id like to get a Reverb and a Stans No Tubes kit but otherwise loving it. I also thought a medium would be too small but so far dosent seem too bad.

Gotta love a Nomad.
Proper mans bike.
I think you meant "[i]man's[/i]"
That dog needs to do it's business outside, it'll ruin your carpet
Lovely, a mark 1? Can I ask roughly how much you paid for it? I'm thinking I might have to sell mine, I really don't want to, but it's one in one out at the moment
Frame was £580 with Kashima Float CTD. Problem I found was eveyone wants to sell the bike complete and frames came up rarely on their own. I wanted to buy a mk2 but after searching for awhile this came up at the right price. Pedals well with the climb setting and Ive come from a DH bike so weight isnt an issue at the moment.
Shock not back to front, or does that even matter?
has 'skill compensator' written all over it, also, not keen on the carpet
Its a rental place so carpet is out of my control! Yes it is, thats how it came with bushes pre-installed and they only go one way so need to get the switched.
The mark1 has a rep for being more DH orientated than the later models, I much preferred the mark1 to the mark2. Not ridden one of the carbon wonders. The frame is pretty light (well imo) something along the lines of 7.5lb I believe. I'm running a RP23 now and its a great shock.
Looks like a good price and good condition.
Btw they ride pretty good at 180 in the alps too !
