Default New Yeti Asx

Well the process is finally complete compliments of Adrenaline Bike Shop... The original ASX was a Med.. I am 6 ft 5 anyway Adrenaline hooked me up with a frame already upgraded with the Rocco TST... As We were finishing up in walks a guy asking questions about freeride frames the ASX comes up and Dave walks up with the black Med well this turns out to be Abstrakt77 from here on STR and let's just say he now has a new project in his garage... I have attached some pics for those of you that are not coming up to tempt gravity in BB tomorrow....

That's a sweet looking ride right there. I dig that color. Let us know how that shock performs.

That bike is SICK

Have fun with it at BB tomorrow. I won't be able to make it (was gone all day today, don't want to do that to the wife 2 days in a row).

And more importantly, you have a new Yeti and a bike that's not a @#*&%@# 29er

A gravity dropper...on your freeride bike?

I weep for the future!

Congrats on your new ride and good luck up in BB.

Edit: For the Roco, make sure you have between 180 and 220 psi. (The manual has an incorrect range listed.)

Oh not only does it have small wheels but they have these things called tubes in them

The post came with the doner.... I am not that committed to it, but I do not have another at this point. I will run the pressuer up in the shock and probably bring the shock punp tomorrow..

Thanks for the tip

ROCO on the AS-X is nice. Now you need to ditch that Breakout!

Make sure SRAM sorts them out. I know a lot of people have had issues with the dual air version.
