    Welcome aboard! The problem with buying the SL is when you just fancy a change of bike you can't find anything better to replace it, ive never owned a bike so long.

    DW Link for the win!

    Enjoy!

    The frame reminds of a specialized ex fuel 9.9


    It has that Specialized look about it ?? Are they both owned by the same company ??



    Anyways Quality looking ride ...

    don't change very often, the 853 Inbred is still about, doing the hardtail duties
    got the Ibis to replace my Kona Dawg (08) so i guess i change it bout every 2 years...
    i am very tempted to replace the 853 with the Ibis Tranny tho, but will need a few pennies to do so.

    on another note, i have finally got some semi-custom decals made up for it to remove all the red ones off the forks and wheels, and match the blue on the links and hubs, and rotors, should look sweet. will post a pic with them on when they arrive, should be later this week... hopefully ;)

    Lovely build!

    Did you use Slik graphics for your custom decals, as I ordered some for my Marin rims ;)

    Waiting for mine too :)
