Love that kodak yellow tracer 2.

😀

dirtyrider, that is one megabucks build! Enve rims, SRAM XX1, WOW!

Anyway… Here’s my do it all full sus…

Yup, it’s still Marmite, but I still love it… Still nothing I’d replace it with.

That Intense is really nice. dirtyriders SC is a quality build too but fork choice a little out of place 😯

My Spicy. Really like that yellow Tracer above.

My Zesty 214. Worst it’s had to put up with so far is Afan, but bought with some proper exploring in mind. Am on a (very) slow course of upgrading.

Had a great 2009 – 2010 with a Pitch; no upgrades to speak of, just took it out a lot… Trail centres initially, then more big loops and Highland trails –

Torridon (Coulags –Annat)

North of Loch Maree –

STW Weekender 2010 –

Sadly, taken a child-related sabbatical in the last 2 years. Hoping my colossal drop in fitness won’t cast a disapproving shadow when I finally take it out again…

My custom build Commencal Meta5.5 VIP.

First picture is in it’s current state.

Is it just me that’s got one of these?

Is that a Rune? was sorely tempted by one of those – the bushing life thing put me off. How have you found it?

Their new Rune is on the list for next bike… really like it.

Remedy 7 2012

Have also put my SLX double chain-ring on it as a 1×10.

My other Helius ST with Bos Deville up front and Vip’r rear shock. This is in AM guise and weighs 31lb on my digital tanita bathroom scales.

I also have a reverb to fit (after winter) and some ex823 wheels and Diabolous cranks to beef it up for the Mega and mini downhill. I love it so much that I’m selling its beefier built brother somewhere over there —>

my new toy.

I’ve spoiled it rotten and given it a clean for its photo 🙂

My Dad’s yellow tracer in the front with my Alpine 160 in the back. Bit of a colour clash next to one another! In Les Gets this year, hopefully be back again next year 😀

Yes it is. The bushings are ok if you look after them and don’t have one that was overtightened in the factory. I had a Spitfire with that problem and it got replaced under warranty. I only bought the Rune earlier this year and it’s been fine.

Real shame about the Spitfire – meant to be an amazing bike otherwise. They’re meant to have sorted the issues with the new ones:

That green Nic been ridden into a tree?

@lank45, by the K2 bar by the looks of it lol.

Loved the ventanas and sb-66s

The heckler seems to be getting the most votes though… 😉

Here’s mine…

Not the most modern bike and a bit heavy, but I love it. Am getting it painted in the new year as its looking a bit tired now.

Like the_lecht_rocks, I only grab my Nicolai Helius CC from the garage since getting it last year.

Needs rephotographing as it now has Float 32’s and remote dropper post that is in keeping with the black and red.
