Wheels, brakes and cranks where taken off my old frame. So not including those bits about 5 grand. Frame was $2400 from the bikeshed.

Nice bike dude. Very clean. How is it for brake jack and pedal bob? Always wondered that with the blindside. Your right though, they are bargain for $2500 if you ask me..

After playing the with the propedal there is very little bob. Have not noticed any brake jack yet but have not gone through any big rock gardens yet. Will keep you posted as am aiming to get out and give it a good ride this week and for the week at thredbo.

looks beautiful mate.
How do you think it would go up hill? I'm in the market as well. Want something to race downhill, but be able to ride back up as well.

Is fairly hard work getting it up hills. You could put a front derailuer on and it would make it a bit better.
