just wondering if you changed the ibeam post and seat or did it come with a non ibeam set up?

good to see the 07 avids coming through on them as well.

It looks cooler:p

Put one zip tie (or duct tape) around the crown (what your stanchins are attached to), then put another [smaller] zip tie through that (and around the hydro hose).

Hope that clear enough.



P.s. I [probly] will be getting one of these soon!
Have you made any upgrades to yours?

Do NOT put a Funn camo Seat on a hardtail.

Most un-bluddy-comfortable seat on a fully, would make your ass cheeks sunburnt red in an hour on a hardtail...

Im not telling you what to do but i'de advise not putting minions on it. I have the exact same bike and its great, especially the weight, i am yet to ride with a mate with a lighter bike. Minions would completely defeat the purpose of the sub 2kg frame (maybe), rhyno lite's and other things. The holyrollers are great on dirt aswell, but if you insist on getting big knobly tires there are plenty others that would weigh half as much as the minions.

Neway have good fun on it, i sure have on mine ;)
