Shimano Saint crankset, RD and shifter, XT brakes, chain and cassette.

Any sign of this yet?

Cool, thanks for the reminder.

Small, normally a medium in gloves but the large fit perfectly.

My Carbon Covert, just changed the shock from Fox to a CCDB Air CS..

Fitted mine using a Hope universal mount as mentioned above some pics in this thread:

Then added a KCNC bar adaptor to clear the cables:

Cheers enduro kid,
CCDB Air CS.

When new a few months ago, new shock going on tomorrow so new pics soon.

Hiscox +1

Replaced my 661 Recon with an Urge All Mountain, much better fit for me and not too bad heat wise even on the warmest days. CRC have a sales on: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/urge/helmets/mtb-helmets

Cheers OP, new Lezyne pump and some brake cleaner ordered. 🙂

Yes, i’ve got one had it for 6 months and ride 2-3 times a week, no problems at all.

Few pictures here…

Transition have a very good policy and frame damage but i hope not to need it.

Noah’s Ark near Stroud where mine came from have a Carbon Covert frame on offer at present.. http://www.noahsark.co.uk/transition-bikes-2013-c241/transition-transition-covert-carbon-frame-w-fox-float-ctd-adjust-bv-kashima-2013-p1703

Been looking at this myself recently, top 3 for me from various reviews were Fox Antifreeze, Scott Minus and Royal Racing Minus.
Gone for the Royal Racing but may get the Fox as well if any good deals come along.

Really pleased with mine, much better fit for me than my 661 Recon, Exposure Joystick fits no problem with the right mount.

Thank you, gloves ordered plus an inner tube to get over £20 after the additional 10% discount from the code.

Cheexpleez – one bolt to remove and it can be mounted at any angle.

Royal Racing gloves ordered, thanks for the replies

Bought some Altura Attack 3/4’s yesterday and got some discount, might be worth trying Merlin…

Received my Luminator today from Smudge @ mtb batteries and had a ride tonight to give it a go and it really is very impressive, a few pics –
Fitted using a Hope universal mount kit:

Setting 4:

Going to secure the battery and cables better and probably get a KCNC bar adaptor to raise the light a bit over the cables.
As has been said many times before it appears an excellent product with UK backup (if required).

Noah’s Ark near Stroud offer interst free and price matching, they’re as good as it gets in my book, speak to Adam or George in sales.

Yes, I’m using one on my Carbon Covert, 4 months in and no problems.

@ Gee76 – thanks!

Getting very tempted now with some of the deals about…

Might be a complete 2013 Saint group set in the classifieds soon!

I use https://www.ineedwebhosting.co.uk/.
for mine, typically .co.uk domains to buy are £7.50 for 1-2 years, the hosting is all maintained by my web developer.
You can just buy the name using the above and leave it until you sort hosting out.

As honourablegeorge has said, the finish doesn’t last too long, i’ve got the Saints and as you can see after a few hundred miles the black starts to wear off:
I’m also running a 34T Renthal ring up front.

Another thanks, ordered the exposure and helmet mount.

I changed recently as Zurich wouldn’t cover my bikes for more tham £400 each, i moved to Hiscox Insurance who have £2500 as standard in or out of the home per bike.

Cople more pics:

Got mine a couple of months ago to replace my ageing Jekyll 1000 and absolutely love it, as others have said climb really and descend even better, running 1×10 with a 34 tooth and it’s working well for me around the cotswold hills.

As was posted on here a couple of days ago. PPAL10 gives £10 off over £75 spend, ends 14/5/13

I was after similar to you, around 10L, also i’m not bothered about hydration packs.
After looking at a few options i bought an Osprey Syncro 10.
It can take a hydration pack but it’s an extra so i use the space for other items, all Osprey bike packs have a helme holder which is very useful.

I’ ve got the Sombrio X-Floats and recentley got Vans Gravel aswell, the Sombrios are good with a really grippy sole but are a bit “loud” i much prefer the Vans, look just like regular skate type shoes but with an enhanced sole that offers plenty of grip.

Got to thank this thread and fuzzhead for recommending Hiscox Insurance, my current insurer Zurich have a maximum of £400 per bike and wouldn’t budge on covering my boys Status II and my Covert, Hiscox have an away from home amount of £2500 per bike as standard and have covered my Covert valued at £5k with the same level of buildings and contents as Zurich all for an extra £2 per month, i was looking at a Velosure policy which would have been £370 per year for 1 bike only. Thank you!

Bad news, i was there Saturday and had a great time but keep an eye on my bike at all times.

Transition Covert Carbon just finished in the last few weeks fitted with some lovely 26″ Crossmax SX wheels.

I had a similar requirement and went for a Carbon Covert:
