lekker fiets, Andre...

 

Here's mine after the "update" and after a wet Tokai session... Seat is down low for the descent.

 

So much better when wet! Upgrades - Reba RLT @ 100mm (changing to 120mm soon) 9sp deore shifters, fully enclosed cable kit, new cassette & chain, tubeless conversion. Saved 1.6kg with the fork upgrade alone.

Next to come is a new crankset, then a smaller stem and finally better rims. But only when these ones funk out. Crankset is currently in the process of funking out, and will need a replacement soon.

 

This thing descends pretty well for a 100mm HT. Slacker head angle than most xc hardtails, and heavy heavy welding. Helluva strong frame.

Looks like a leka tuff bike you've got there. Will have to join you in Tokia soon!
