[Closed] New Bike Day! Gnarpoon content.

I wasn't supposed to be getting a new bike for another couple of years but a deal came up and some man maths means it hasn't really cost me any money. A Patrol was right up there with an Evil Insurgent when I was idly pricing up a bike to buy in the States when I visit my inlaws but Brexit put paid to that idea. Then a great deal from an LBS staffer selling of his old frame to fund a new one and a great deal on some bits means I've ended up with this- I'm over the moon with it! [URL[URLSpec is Pike dual positions, Mavic Crossmax wheels, Chromag bar/stem/saddle, Reverb and full Sram XX1 gearing which will be a novelty after years on Shimano. It doesn't feel as nice as XT but I'll see how I get on. It's got an angleset in it to bring the head angle to about 63.5. Looking forward to having a 28.5lb bike to hike-a-bike up mountains again instead of my Commencal which was about 32lb.
