    I'm thinking an on one 456 frame with a TBD fork and most likely an XT group.

    I'll put the stock wheels from my FS bike on that and put some handbuilts on my remedy. All assuming that santa has a fat wallet this year.

    I am getting a '08 Yeti 575 w/ an '08 Fox 36 Vanilla RC2 and lots of other treats for it. Will be riding promptly after receipt of tax refund. Plus a few road trips, Utah and Colorado included. And just riding as much as possible.
