Interested to see who is still using a sub 120mm travel 26" FS instead of the usual 150-160mm enduro rig.

Who's got what?

Cheers.

I still love the look of that seatpost, proper retro. I used to have a Slayer of that vintage, great bike.

Fashionably unfashionable.
SC Blur XC in Torridon (the last time it was ridden).

It mainly hangs up in the garage these days as the fatbike, 29er and CX options appeal more.

Kona 2+2 XC, not getting ridden much these days, but I'll not let go of it, fantastically capable bike for 100mm both ends, regardless of the unfashionable Magic Link.

I have an Orange ST4 (same as in matt_outandabout's piccy) with 120mm Rebas. In bits at the moment as I need to sort the bearings out, but it's the best bike I've owned and suits my type of riding perfectly.

No photos but my old 26" plastic Anthem held its own in the Peaks and many a trail centre, and until bigger wheels came along it felt so fast ๐Ÿ™

Another Camber 26er owner here. I've only been mountain biking for two years so its all the travel I need for general trail riding and long days out.

Don't have any close up pictures of my Anthem X. Done everything on this from racing, (HtN here) to Passportes du Soleil. Will probably go 29er next time, but not more travel. [img] ?oh=887a962ac02cd1acd61e763f6794d7e2&oe=55056860&__gda__=1427139251_1ce4377f88f86cd44c494dfae0d80f91[/img]

where are all the anthems!

I just washed mine down and locked it away before I saw this thread. Plus I've got some pimpin' bits to collect from the post office in the morning, so I'll try and get them on at lunch time for an afternoon pic.
