Exceptional styling and frame and component choices IMO.  I’ve found myself returning to this gorgeous build for days…  Can’t wait to read of your adventures and how it performs.

Ja ja. Mine.

Some very sexy sleds here! lower, longer slacker! ROWDY!! I think we should just have another shred day after the EWC is over with, Enduro light route plus some extra spice. I mean its what these bikes were made for!

I'm feeling a new frame coming on for my birthday!!  Which reminds me, the one time I got something new I never posted it.

New pedals and shoes I like the color combo thinking about a custom paint job similar to this RC 😁 my fiets ry so lekker dit moet 'n pink stukkie hê 🤣🤣

Moving back to Schwalbe after a stint with OEM Maxxis. The Magic Mary in 2.6 is probably way-overkill for both what I ride and how I ride it, but figured I would give the newish trail carcass build a try.  

Loctitie is for my son's bike - his jumps give it such a thrashing the bolts work loose pretty quick.

I have the same combo and love them. Prefer them to the DHF and Aggressor I had.

I keep threatening to buy one, but for now a piece of weed eater gut in my toolbox is the tool I use.

R150 at Evo bikes. Some links comes off easily and some are a real pain in the behind. But now I have it I will probably not need to remove a chain for a while 🤣

Oldest is turning 5 in a few weeks.

I think he's going to enjoy this.

I switched out the cockpit for slightly narrower bars with a rise, shorter stem and zero setback seatpost.

Edit I just realised that his came specced with some random brakes and not the Tektro that are specified on the Titan website.
