LazyTrailRider Posted July 31, 2014 Share Sorry to break the news so late but the bike is available at your LBS. It's called the Spez Enduro. You're welcome.Pffft, and you mocked me about sitting in the library & sauna in Leogang. Stop freakin' hubbing and get on the trails!

Iwan Kemp Posted July 31, 2014 Share Could you be going back to Felt? I know you've tested a few in your career... Sheesh, and it's a Virtue as well. All that riding happened when the Virtue was first launched. Back then bikes came with 26" wheels...

Back then bikes came with 26" wheels... I remember perving over the Virtue @ Revolution when I bought my hardtail, now more than 6 years ago...  Still an attractive looking bike, that Virtue. And this plastic version just builds on it so nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JXV Posted July 31, 2014 Share  Maybe I'm a bit slow this morning but I can't understand what you just said? He said the SC Tallboy LTc meets your spec.....except maybe for the water bottle cage inside the triangle....... And they've been available for a while B) Edited July 31, 2014 by JXV Spoke101 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwan Kemp Posted July 31, 2014 Share The Ibis Ripley has received some high praise from Tread recently.  http://www.ibiscycles.com/images/uploads/wygwam/tread-ripley-verdict.png But no internal routing for a dropper and cable routing in general is a bit of a mess on that bike. Ticks the other boxes, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted July 31, 2014 Share My first thought is a Stumpy (69 HA) or Stumpy Evo (68.4 HA). I ride a regular Stumpy, but upgraded with a 140 Pike, so it ends up with 68.1 HA. The bike is ridiculously versatile. To throw some other ideas into the pot, there's also* Cannondale Trigger (130mm/130mm, 69 HA)* Ibis Ripley (120mm/140mm, 68.5 HA)* Kona Process 111 (111mm/120mm, 68 HA)* Banshee Prime (130mm/130mm, 68 HA)* Cube Stereo (140mm/140mm, 68 HA)* Yeti SB95 (127mm/140mm, 67.6 HA) In picturesCannondale Trigger (130mm/130mm, 69 HA)http://media.cannondale.com/media/catalog/product/cache/317/small_image/725x/17f82f742ffe127f42dca9de82fb58b1/c/1/c14_29m_trg29_c1_crb_1.png Ibis Ripley (120mm/140mm, 68.5 HA)http://www.ibiscycles.com/images/uploads/bikeGallery/ripley-Blue_Side_XTR.jpg  Kona Process 111 (111mm/120mm, 68 HAhttp://www.konaworld.com/images/bikes/main/process_111.jpg Banshee Prime (130mm/130mm, 68 HA)http://www.bansheebikes.com/wp-content/uploads/Prime-red-website-1-of-1.jpg Cube Stereo (140mm/140mm, 68 HA)http://www.cube.eu/fileadmin/2014/cccc/bike/fully/stages/563400-stereo140superhpcrace292x10blackline_light.jpg Yeti SB95 (127mm/140mm, 67.6 HA)http://wpc.6e94.edgecastcdn.net/006E94/media/images/images_mobile/bikes/sb95/2014_sb95_colors_turq_high.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
