The black was Fabien Cousinie's 2011 prototype. The red was Mick Hannah's 2012 (built for Les 2 Alpes).

 

I'll be getting the red, but it may go to the factory for some custon Morewood & Patches treatment. (I've been meaning to send my Sukuma in for a more permanent paint job anyway).

 

But yeah, first the frame needs to get to me.

Gratz bro.. super nice... and sikmiks to top it off... that should bless you with some unearthly skills :thumbup: :lol:

The Enza is a dirt jump bike. Dirt jump bikes and BMX's often use smoother tread tyres because they're used on hardpack.

I am regretting the Mbuzi grey selection ... should have gone with the Enza colour .... will see later today when the frame arrives though

QR drop outs? I thought the Mbuzi was standard with 12mm TA?

this was a custom fit Greg M to race the mega avalanche when he was with Honda. You will also note that the shock mounts to the underside of the top tube and not the down tube as per standard.

 

Further to this the bus at mw have machined up a thru axel conversion that is not shown on the pic :)

Nice!

 

You think they'd machine a through axle for the Shova ST as well?

Basic build. Proper rear Der being sorted and new dropper post should be done by next week. I might put the ss Green rimmed dartmoor raider wheels on as the current set needs some tlc.

 

Spin around the block feels positive, now just to dial the bike in.
