    They are blooming good bikes arent they. :D

    Make sure you check the brake hose routing is right if its over the top of the Bottom Bracket it can rub on the down tube. Either re-route it under the BB or get busy with the frame protection tape.

    Just been cleaning mine and found a nice lump of dog poo wedged into the front mech. Only realised it was dog shit after I had started picking it out with my fingers :x

    its a great bike and a really nice upgrade from my specialized hardrock.
    already checked that as i was reading your thread the other week while waiting for the bike to arrive and its routed under the BB like it should be :D ive been busy tonight with heli tape to try and protect as much of the bike as possible lol.

    Just been cleaning mine and found a nice lump of dog poo wedged into the front mech. Only realised it was dog shoot after I had started picking it out with my fingers :x

    Inconsiderate dog owners, now if it was cow shoot or horse shoot that would be acceptable ;)
