Here is my 2012 Stumpy Elite, it is just an awesome ride, I have just fitted new Shimano XT brakes, pulling the lever is now like hitting a wall :D

    Nice dude! I like the colour of that one. It lets you be inventive with a colour for the finishing kit. I've also just bought some of the new XT brakes. Only took a couple of rides to bed them in but they have been super powerful from day one! They really do have some ridiculous stopping power.

    The saddlebag is attached at the rear of the seat and not connected to the dropper post, works perfectly and doesn't foul anywhere

    Really nice bike mate. In relation to the XT brakes I have just had some fitted but not been out yet. What's the best way to bed them in.

    Hi Lee, I just went out found a couple of long hills and rode down them dragging the brakes a bit, they were excellent straight out of the box but after a couple of rides they were unbelievable, dont know if this is the right way but it worked for me

    I got the bike in May in New Zealand, I'm not sure if the colour is available in the UK this year
