Hi all, relatively new here so I'll post up some pic of my current batch of toys.

Currently in the build of this biatch.... just waiting on forks

This fella has been about in a few different guise's. Was pure race hardtail for a while then went single speed for a bit before I got a real ss. Then went big wheeled goodness....

The darkside rig. See's occasional road use and plenty of time on the rollers if the weather is shit or I'm getting specific in the training department.

I like the curves on the yeti frame:cool:

[konacoiler]

you are a very lucky man,
so jealous :p

i love the s works and yeti- :eek: so sweet!

[Air time erik]

Nice bikes you got there

PRONG ON!!

[Justin Fox]

Ah I love all of these rides, you're got great taste.

The Yeti frame rocks out. I really wanted that bike when I was looking around for an all mountain bike a couple of months ago. I didn't have the funds though so I settled for a runout 2007 Giant Reign 1.

I love the S-Works, and how it's gone through a few different transformations. How did the move to bigger wheels feel? (I'm tempted!) and what gear ratio were you running on it as a single speed? The rear cog looks massive!

Also, looks like you're an Oury grips fan. Are they really as great as everyone says they are? I've got to get me some!

PS: Looks like you're running 700c 29'ers? I want to know more!

When the Hardtail was ss it was running 32:15. The singulator makes it look like its a huge cog but really wasnt.

Oury's rock. I've ridden heaps of different grips and they all get tossed away in favour of oury's.

The 700c wheels are acutually mavic speed city's. Disc hubs laced to a heavy duty rim for "urban" enviroment. Wheel clearance is my biggest issue. Its sfa at the front and not much more at the rear. But it fits so I'm happy.

Yep I'm a hairy snowman. Plus I go better up than down. Seat will be a bit lower on the yeti.... maybe

[fezi]

Your hack bike is an S-works! :eek:

It never used to be that way. It was my first "decent" bike after having a norco nitro for many years. That poor thing did like 40k kms before the BB housing cried enough and split like a water melon. Welded it back together and "sold" it for a 4 pack of cider! The big 440ml jobbies!

[k3n!f]

FARK!

That is an insane stable!

Yeti pride!

[AngoXC]

Pace forks eh? You honestly dont see many of them around I have to say. Whats the low down?

I used to live in the UK. Hence the Pace's on both sworks and the hope brakes on them as well.

Yeti will get the DT Swiss versions of Pace forks as well. I like em what can I say. I just wish the bloody things would arrive so I can build the 575 up. Hanging to ride the thing

Finally got around to getting this puppy finished. Cracked the shits with waiting for DT Swiss to release their 150mm fork to the waiting masses and bought a Fox talas. Will get the DT fork when they become available. 1st Ride tommorow morning. Work will have to wait another day for me.
No weights on this yet, have to dig the scales out of their hole.
