    Just built this frame up – Pivot Mach 4 with donor bits from previous Intense. DW link with some very neat tubing/funky bits.
    Really stiff and totally silent on the trail – feels bulletproof and rides light.
    Anyone else got one? (Apart from Benji with his crazy stem ideas!)

    looks confused?

    4″ bike

    stick 6″ forks in it

    Stick 2″ of spacers under the stem

    Stick rizer bars on it

    Then go for a long stem that would have suited the original 4″ bike?

    Looks nice but as ^ says it’s a bit chopper like on the front.

    Most wrong with loads of spacers on a new bike. Much easier to cut down on e you have it set up then to add steerer when you realise it is too low:)

    Maybe I am paranoid, but do you really want your car numberplate published here?

    Very nice bike BTW except for the spacers.

    Nice looking frame. Would be even better with a fork that fits?

    Well, it’s on his car when he’s driving down the road, so it’s not hard to see……. 😉

    They are 120mm Magura Durins so not 6″ forks – admittedly a long axle to crown length though.
    Its a 90mm stem – pretty stock for an XC bike in my opinion – much shorter and its a bit wandery up steeps.
    That was the first ride setup so steerer not cut yet and will probably drop it 20mm – takes a bit of fiddling with cos i am right in between a medium or large frame. I just prefer a nippier frame to a stretched out one.
    Its not as much of a mudtrap as the Tracer its replaced – and a Mobi washer is a wonderful thing.
