small and xs and x l i think left
Err, that's a 575, not a 5. Cheap ASR-7 though.
apologies just altered , the yeti 7 looks good value
ASR-7 is amazing value. I flipping love mine.
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what is it like and how does it ride? I s it a trail bike or more a all mountain take to the alps bike ( apologies for all the trade maked titles)
It's a brilliant bike; better than the Alpine it replaced and lighter with it. It's a long travel 575 and that's no bad thing. It weighs less than 30lbs with Floats and in my book that puts it in the trail (tm) box.
At that price, you might as well try one.
I was looking at those 7's the other day. V tempting at that price but there is no mention whether it comes with a shock?? Suppose that would be too much to ask at the price 😕
If you look at the options they mostly come with a rp23 but some have dhx next to them
oh no. They've got a large... In Turquoise.... With a DHX
..........must resist
Don't get the DHX air! Had one on my old 575 and it was awful.
V poorly suited to the suspension system, I was later told.
Get the RP23.
Don't get the DHX air!
all they seem to have in the large. Pheww close call. I just saved myself £800 🙂
You can pick up an RP23 easily if you really try. A DHX would be easy to get rid of on Fleabay too. Get clicking.
Be careful with the sizing on the 7, though. They are massive! You must be well over 6 foot to get on with a Large.
You needed a special Yeti tool to remove the shock on my old 575 as well btw. This may or may not still be the case, but would be easy to check.
I sourced one the right size but just sold the frame in the end as it was going to be quite a bit of hassle to swap over.
Oops £700 lighter in the pocket!
Second the dhx comment. I swapped the rp23 on my old 575 for a dhx 5, worst move I ever made!!!!
wish I had £700 knocking about 🙁
6'2" I think I'd be looking at a Large
seriously tempting
I had a large and it was massive for me at 6ft, might be worth finding one to sit over
hmm, maybe medium then as I like a relatively short top tube
now to find £700
Work owe me £700 in expenses which is due next week...technically i've already spent the money then....always wanted a Yeti! Bloody glad they've not got any 4x's 😆
That 575 is tempting though...
who do they use as a courier
Nothing but good things to say about the 575. I'm 6 foot and get on fine with my large.. Had to shorten my stem a tiny bit to sharpen it up but lengthwise it's fine for me. Glad I didn't pay full retail when I got mine last year although still paid 400 more than this.. Bargain!

I am pretty sure mine came Citylink. However it only made a 60 mile journey from Bromley in Kent so received it the next day
