Capricorn Posted May 1, 2011 Share very very nice Pierre! let us know how she rips! damn, i luv black machines (it is black, yes?), especially when matte/stealth finished.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierremerv Posted May 2, 2011 Share Ja, it's a matte black finish. I must say it looks very nice. Just one or two minor things to sort out like the rear rim. My newly built wheel sits off centre. Fished around on the net and looks like these bike need the rim offset 6mm away from the drive side. Will get that sorted, no problem. The bike rides and handles so good. Have not ripped down the downhill course yet, ran out of time this weekend. Just bombed down into Giba Gorge on some of the trials but will be hitting Cascades PMB this coming weekend to give it a real run. Very, very happy with this bike.
