Sorry image im trying to upload is .JPG

Will try different resolutions.

Yes
Also available in the UK

Put some of this on in black, the clear would also hide it as well.

It is interesting very glad I have just got mine at the previous travel.
I think you can spec a uprated downtube enabling a 160 fork , but still no more than 140 rear.

But would agree range seems more defined now
TB short light
AC mid
Ion long

Does this help ?

Or you could use these which would return you to one clamp again.
These
In the UK
Pick the ones that work with the XT brakes ie Ipsec A / B

Endura MTR emergency shell.

Not hanging around is he 8O

Lev 18mths zero problems.
Reverb few weeks niggles already

Firts shakedown ride today on it. :D

I saw the semi-permeable colours after I had ordered they look very nice as well.

Its a size L
It was weighed on the bike shop Moonglus scales and came out just over 30lbs. Quite happy with that for the travel etc was never built with weight in mind.

@ engineeringcowboy very nearly went for the blue, its the hardest bit with these picking the colour.

Perhaps a better representation of the colour.

Rear ano triange is FOC in black if I remember
Front is a cost option and further costs for a secondry ano colour in the rear triangle plus custom frame stamping / lettering.

@ Rik
Thought about the Ion and spoke with a guy over on MTBR who is involved with Nicolai and the development of the Ion.

In the end it came down to the feeling that the AC is just that bit more of a everyday bike. With the Ion nodding towards a more DH slant.

I had a Helius CC and then test rode the AC 650b back end of last year followig that was sold :D

Spec here for those interested.

Takes a Sram direct mount of some sort has removable cable mounts under the downtube.

No its a AC and will take a front mech should you wish

Thanks for the comments.
Its the Orange but hard to capture it changes colour with the light.

Or a Chromag

Here previous thread

You can get a revised red cap from Jungle / Stif that is slightly different in design. Works alongside a revised aluminium ferrule which replaces the plastic one.
I had the same problem and the new parts fixed it.

Thought that too but its only a little wider, passed through the hole on my frame no problem.

I have a stealth (just fitted) it has the coneectormathingibob :D
Just un-connected from base of post can be done three times befotre a bleed is needed. Thread through and reconnect

Hi Jon

I have one fitted within my set up and it works perfectly as far as I can tell. Improved the shifting no end , have since gone on to fit the RAD cage as well.

No complaints.

Do One Up Components work out any cheaper with postage ?

Here today

I have a Schwalbe Magic Mary front 2.35 and a Highroller II 2.3 rear.

As you say need to try before buying.

No the Saint doesnt suffer from that its just compared to the near instant lever on the XT.
The only panicking will be as your eyes leave your head with the stopping power on each :lol:

Have had the latest XT’s which were superb very on / off which I liked.
Also have Saint M820’s on another bike, they have a longer lever throw / better modulation than the XT’s.
I think the increase with power on the Saint comes into play when you are on the brakes longer.
So to sum up :D

XT’s great very sharp at the lever
M820’s longer lever throw better modulation deeper stopping power.

Both brilliant.

I have had good results gluing the sole back on my ageing

Wish they still made them ..
Using This serious glue

Have had lots of Camelbaks now have a Osprey Raptor 14 wouldnt go back.
