I've recently upgraded my Top Fuel 8 to a Top Fuel 9.

 

Here it is at Hoogekraal. I've added the following to it:

 

1. Extra chunky grips

2. Bontrager dropper post

3. 28T chain ring. Who needs an eagle anyway? This mod was R12k cheaper for the same result. I haven't lost any top end and I can reach 45km/h easily.

 

I'm still in two minds about how the Rockshox compares to the Fox that was on the TF 8. I love the remote lockout on the TF 9 though.

 

And those saying that SLX brakes = XT. You don't know what you are talking about. XT brakes are so much better on fast downhills. They don’t fade as quick as the SLX ones.

Looks ready for action with those fat tyres. Would also be a good contender in the Black Bikes Only thread.
