I tried telling my wife the same thing - she didn't buy it. She went out and bought a bunch of new shoes to prove a point.

Nice new setup Duan!

Foo, if your wife lets you build bikes in the kitchen, then you are a lucky man indeed.

Nice ride.

i swear when i do decide i'll just buy a complete bike build and then swap over the good parts from my 26'er which i think are just the brakes and the seatpost and stem if they apply and then sell my 26er...hmmm interesting

thanks Bret. I rode the bike tonight at aliso and man this thing (i think it's all mental) descends really nice! it really seems to soak up the bumps going down lynx i dont know if it's just me but i swear i went down lynx a lot faster. I still have a mental block at the beginning of lynx; that ledge i've only cleared it a few times and the rest of the time it's a mental thing for me.

Going through coyote was pretty cool as well definitely rode different compared to the steel zion frame. Here's some shots of it getting dirty


Here's a shot for Allison


but what fun would it be to only build ONE bike...i got to build 3 bikes from all this LOL

Before I clicked on the link - I was thinking to myself - "No way...already???" - but I guess it's someone else selling the frame.

DeeZee
