[Binaural]

That is going be a missile when it's fully built! Are you setting it up for 4X or just as a short travel XC bike?

[Yeti]

4x bike, but you know....with all the trails around canberra, a short travel XC bike it becomes aswell...just with the bent seatube you don't really expect much room for seatpost adjustment.

[Daver]

Looks good man, can't wait to see it complete. Have fun with ISCG 05 too... Would you be able to do me a favour though: can you measure the actual top tube length from the middle of the headtube to the middle of the seat tube?

MRP System 3 with Turquoise Rollers


where in the world did you source something other than black or orange rollers????

[wbrown]

looks smooth, loving it.
How much does it weigh?

Dave it's short as. Like 20.5". I called rowney up and he talked about virtual top tube and all this other crap. It feels alright...not incredibly short, but it definatly looks it. Why do you ask?

[Ruckus_Lord]

I believe MRP (or someone) make OEM rollers for Yeti bikes; I believe they come in Yellow or Turquoise.

Ripper of a bike mate, you're gonna' have to let us know what she weighs. ;)

[Yeti]

once everythings on there i will.

[FatYZ0]

Dude that is porn and was going to be the frame that i brought untill i got wind of what the price of it was.

I wanted to double check the size of mine. How sure are you that it is a large?

[Yeti]

It says in the serial number underneath the bottom bracket. 064XL or something...but it doesnt feel short. Yours? Why? You get a new one?

:eek: Nice man, ride it hard and have fun. I'm sure you will. Anyone know how they go for DJs and is the rear swing arm strong? It proberly is, but for some reason, I think I would break it easily.
PS. Nice bike.
PPS I love it, wish I had one.

The Frames themself retail for a little over $2000,
I was looking at getting one and then found out the price and needed to save a little bit more.

[jungle]

Nathan,

Ah hate to burst the bubble....$3290. So you've got even a bit more saving.

Damn, I was getting excited because I thought $2000 isn't too bad. You burst it alright.:(

[farkus]

best 4X bike ever. im so getting one after i sell my sister on ebay.

[topher]

That Dt 240 wheelset would be lethal! Curiously have you thought about using Mavic 819 UST rims instead of the DT 5.1 rims?

Awesome set up thus far though

[santa-claws]

I know someone whos selling one for $1000, in perfect condition too.

Sweet ride buddy, looks sick as.

Looks like i will need to go out and get a job then if i want it.

[Randy Rhoads]

Best 4X I've seen. Awesome specs list.

[nick89_]

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but how much did this end up weighing? And how is it riding? There is something special with Yeti 4x's.
