just too late. my order was placed earlier this week. There was a delay because of that one item' date=' but when you made your request, and i checked if there was still time, it was too late: they had already processed the order for shipping.

subtract location of the rear shock, and the curvey hydroformed tubes and it will be a near carbon copy. Capricorn2009-08-14 06:10:41

Hold the horses Morewoodkid: Although most will envy this awesome steed, it ain't no "downhill" rig.

 

PS. the Mbuzi you sold me doesn't come close to my Shova LT when it comes to "Downhill" riding.

Not to mention the Morewood Izumu (drool...)

 

Happy trails though...

[Capricorn]

tend to agree with Flyaway. Seat height a dead give away ?not to mention the length on that stem. it's like it OD'd on viagra

Hey Flyaway, I'm sure it doesn't compare on "downhill" riding, but its certainly capable up and down, no? We've used these at 25km, 3000m vertical MegaAvalanche races lol

 

Regarding the pic, according to a group of "avid" mountainbikers I rode past a week or so ago its a downhill bike. I got the "sjoe you climb well on that downhill bike hey?" Got to love it!

It is unfortunately my only 'wood at the moment... working on a little something though, looking at building one of these in a few months:

The Makulu has only one description: sex on wheels

Technically not a DH rig.  A FR rig... But I think she'll make it past the entry criteria...
