The hoses and cable outers need trimming and stuff and also needs some grips but in its current form Annie the Anthem looks as so -

    Very nice indeed. Was a little sceptical about the bars, brave move, but they look fantastic on the bike. White shocks'll finish it off to a tee. I am very jealous :wink:

    Now what about the rest of you????

    Looks nice, might look better with a different colour seat.

    Lovely frame, and those XTR cranks are a beautiful colour. What is that saddle?

  • The XTR cranks are gorgeous - they seem to change colour from grey to blue in certain lights - much nicer (aesthetically) than the new ones I think......

    He copied mine! :lol:

    Andrew - you know I'm right :wink:

    I have to say I prefer the new ones but those go better with the frame :wink:

    And you can get such bargains on them now!

    Copied you my eye! The price and compatibility (asthetics!) were right so it was an easy choice!
    I think you'll agree i've got this XC bike building down to a fine art now! It's just a case of identifying the best parts for the build :lol:
  • :lol:

    Well... anyway - cool bike!

    Looks great! 8)

    Pick my Attack Trail up tomorrow ready for its maiden voyage! Gonna be mint!

    My DH/FR build is getting there - just have to buy my Hope V2s the weekend....

    Bought XO rear mech (new colours) and X0 shifters a while back (I know.... :oops: )

    Easton Monkeylite DH bars - high rise

    Got a 45mm Thomson stem

    With the Totems/Deemax/Diabolus/e13 stuff etc this is going to be one HOT build!

    Can't wait - probably going to defo be going to Les Gets in June to break her in....! :D
