    What's the tyre clearance on the back end like? Does it run at all when riding?

    Looks good :)

    Its reasonably snug at the back probably about 5mm each side, not much of a problem in Austria, it is a lot drier here, when i get back to the UK i will probably put 2.3s on it. Looks pretty mean with 2.5s on it though so i might see how it goes in UK conditions as well.

    Yeah, I'd love to stick bigger one mine but I'm a bit paranoid about the clearance :) It was fine with 2.35" High Rollers or the new 2.25" Ardents though (although they are on 19mm rims, so don't come out massive).

    I've seen people running 2.35" Nevegals (which are pretty massive) rubbing holes in the back end when it flexes.

    Yours looks pretty sweet, green looks sick. Thats one thing i feel about my bike sometimes it just lacks a bit of stand out colour. Thought about getting it resprayed but sometimes it just seems like a waste of money. Maybe though....

    Changed the tyres, these are much better, roll a lot faster and to be honest i think they look a lot cooler!

    On the lookout for a new chainset and some floating rotors at the moment, not sure whether to get XT or XTR cranks, any recommendations?

    Cheers
