If you have to buy one of these bikes yourself, you’re not fast enough to need one.

I take it all back, never realised there was a reverse arch Fox 32!

The full suspension XC Dogma isn’t as light as I would’ve expected for £12k.  My Spur with bigger, chunkier tyres and a Performance dopper is only 11.14kg and was less than half of that.

I was going to say they’re the least ugly pinarello bikes for a long time and then I zoomed in on the images and it’s back up for debate.

Yeah the full suss looks like a Boardman and the hardtails chainstay need aligning.

 

Is it just me, or m do most xc race full sus bikes look like Cannondale Scalpels? Especially with the rear flex stays.

I remember comments like that when I bought an S-Works Epic. Jealousy is a horrible thing. I bought it because I liked it, and I could.

They really don’t want you to but a frame. For £1700 you’re getting quite a nice pile of bits. Frame £5,300 cheaper build £7,000

Or is the cheaper build a cheaper frame too? Or i do i just not know how much a build costs?

Kashima-colour mismatch on a £13k bike? My OCD’s having ants!
