    Nice, good to see another one on here! What size is it? As adb1006 said, pics make it look tiny!!

    Have you replaced the tyres? Difficult to see from the pic but they look different from standard?

    Also, have you rotated and moved the fork remote lockout (correct word escapes me...) to the other side of the bars?
    Doesn't the cable stick out a long way when you rotate it?

    Thanks for the comments. The bike is 15.5 (small). I'm 5'7" and prefer smaller bikes for more of a bmx feel and control.

    The tyers are Bontrager XR1 and not the XDX. I wanted less rolling resistance and had these swapped. Schwalbe tyres coming soon!

    That is great idea relocating the remote. Gonna do that once I get my riser bar.

    Lovely bike.

    I went to the Panaracer XC Pro's.

    The bike would really benefit from XTR shifters and rear mech IMO.

    It's a lovely frame isn't it?
