This is fycking sick! I also see you ditched the Xeno's for Argyles looks alot better with lower forks. I think a 24'' frame would make it even sicker or does the 26 run ok on 24? but you could probly get it looking like this with a 24 frame.. http://fstatic1.mtb-news.de/img/photos/2/6/0/4/3/_/large/P1110457.JPG but other then that nice update;)

HaHa it started raw! Bike looks sweet as always. Track down some of that rust paint like the old ramage art car that was up here for a while, but I think you should leave it black.
And for all the weight weenies get some KHE Mac's they are the shiz.

Really nice bike man.
The only thing that lets it down In my opinion is the colour, so I recon get it resprayed.

Yeah I couldnt lower the xenos and they were playing up, The argyles feel really good, lower front feels amazing compared to what it was. The riot feels really good on 24", I couldnt give a fuck who says it would feel to low, feels dialed. Oh and the plan is to get a Blk Mrkt Contraband when they come out, should be sick. Capital is fuckin awesome too.
And for all the weight weenies get some KHE Mac's they are the shiz.
Ill probly leave it black Damien, Maybe raw again or translucent colour. doubt it tho cause blacks where its at :P haha
Oh and kids, spread the word! KHE macs are the shiz.
I love it. Excellent job.

Ahhh I havent weight it properly but no joke it is lighter then all the BMXs that I have riden execpt two. Its really low 11s or high 10s, I weighed it on some old spring fishing scales and it was like sitting on the 10 but I wont take it as a real weight, Ill way it on a digital scale.
