I think you need some practice in embedding pics....the bantu's are great value for money...Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

If it still has the Innova tyres they are worth replacing, great for gravel tracks, pretty hopeless in mud....
The Voodoo's have some great components for the price, the stem is really light for example.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
That looks great; I love the colour of those.
I'm a bit wary of mounting a pump to the frame; it always seems to get full of grit and rust from the inside out and not work when you need it.0 -
Pump is always better off in your bag... Sack the water bottle and get a camelbak0

For the length of trails i run (about 6/7km) not worth the money, but then again...0 -
You'd be surprised at how quickly your pump will get rusty being exposed to the elements though... Camelback is safer than a water bottle too... No fiddling about being distracted trying to get the water bottle out/in during riding and some spinal protection for if you fall...
Think about it, Get the Camelback, Everyone likes buying new bike related gear lol.0 -
I use a camelback for tools and spare layers, and a water bottle cause I find it more handy for shorter rides!0
-
Personally not a fan of water bottles anymore, Too distracting for my liking.0

Recently purchased a Bantu myself and am considering doing some colour coding, any ideas on colour scemes?0
-
Personnaly im going for blue and white - possibly because im scottish - but i think it looks quite nice, i have now got some white superstar nano thru-pin's and im considering a new stem, slightly shorter than the one i have now (swapped my stem for his stem off of his old kona shred) i think its 60mm but im not sure...0

I was thinkin about red or gold but havent decided yet.
Cage bolts, QR seat clamp, top cap, spacers etc0 -
What mudguards are they Rambo? I like the look of the white one.0

that being said do you know of a decent helmet that has a bit of rear protection and looks good for less than £60?
EDIT - I quit like the look of the 661 recon but to be honest i don't really want to spend any more money on something that i don't really need, not yet anyway because i'm saving to go to New York with the school next year.0
