Bling'd out bikes
I know I'm not the only one who likes to check out new and tricked out bikes. Since I just got done with a pretty nice build on an 08' Highline, I thought I'd post a few. I still feel like a kid on Christmas morning
 Here are a few highlights: 08' Highline 08' Marzocchi 66RC3 Gravity Light Cranks King Hubs, Headset Some nice parts Weighing in a little under 39lbs

Vary nice build, is the black a custom color.
Could you get a detailed shot of your cable routing, I looked on the MTBR “Highline setup” thread and found about five different ways to rout the cables.  I just finished building my Highline and hopefully by this week I will take some beauty and action photos (but no couch shots)

The black ano is a standard color. I routed all 3 cables on top of the downtube. I will snap a few more pics in better light when I get home and post them.

How do you like riding your Turner Highline? How well does it climb?

Cable routing pics
Here are a couple pictures of how the cables are routed over the downtube. You have to take the shock off the front mount to get them through, unless you want to deal with your brakes.
I still haven't been able to ride the bike on the trails because the my Gravity Light cranks were missing a crank bolt/cap. I had to call and ask them to send me one, so I'm still waiting. I've just cruised it around the neighborhood so far
