Frame bought s/h from a mate who thought he needed it but turned out to be happy with the L!! Built up with my 120mm Manitou Drakes, Truvativ Stylo chainset and Shimano 1x10 gearing (32 tooth Blackspire chainring, 11-36 cassette), Shimano Deore brakes, Ragley bar with Lizardskin bolt on grips, Rockshox Reverb seat post, H Plus Son Todestrieb wheel rims on Novatech hubs and currently running tubed (boo!) Bontrager XR Mud tyres.

I'll clean it this weekend (and get the tubeless sorted now that I have some decent width rim tape). :)

    Nice clean looking (under the mud!) bike, good to see more Manitou's out there!

    Finally finished mine over Christmas having bought the frame in October. Really pleased with it even though I haven't managed to use it properly yet. Took a snap on the way to work this morning.

    Frame is a large. Rockshox Reba forks and 2x10 XT groupset. I was supposed to be swapping the groupset from my old bike but I donated that to my son's frankenbike as I couldn't resist the upgrade. Built the wheels myself, Novatec hubs with Velocity Blunt rims.
