    not sure yet. either better, and saving up for newer (which will be bank...), or getting interchangeable parts (like a fork) and saving for the frame/wheels/cranks. we'll see what frame I end up wanting most :lol:

    and is it just me or does that headset look comically large in that frame? needs an integrated like the blk mrkts

    Sounds like it's good for Brant but a loss for On One. Brant seemed great. Very helpful on the forums.

    Brant is great indeed. I will try to connect with him (and Dave from On One) when I am over in the UK next...looking forward to it

    No bling on this bike. Just good, solid parts from the HOSS. Weighs in at 31.75lbs. Bottom bracket height is 13 1/4", and head tube angle is 66.5 degrees!
    I'll be going out and getting it dirty tomorrow morning. Maybe climbing up Maple Springs, or just heading over to Oaks. I'll see how work goes tonight.

    Thanks again to FoShizzle for the hook-up!

    cool...looks "appropriate" for sure! let us know how it works...thats a U-Turn, right? seems the kickazz fork the bike since with the slack angles, dropping that bad boy for extended climbs will work like a charm

    OK, rode it around Oaks this morning, and had a blast!
    Climbed the first "B" with the fork all the way up, and it was just a little floppy, but not too bad. Wound down the Pike for the next 2 "B"s, and it was better.

    I may need to put on a longer stem, since it felt just a little short. It' has a 70(?) on it right now, so I may try the 90 that I have laying around.
    Coming down the ridge to Chutes was a freak'n ball!
    This is gonna be a FUN bike once I get the set-up dialed in.

    nice!

    I have most of major parts ordered for mine....definitely not a bike that should have bling as that would be ghey....I am gonna run a 426 U-turn Pike, SLX Build kit with XT brakes, On One post....really just need to pick up a stem, bars, and tires for the most part and cant wait

    thanks for the update! I have never ridden a bike like this so looking forward to it!
