Got itchy trigger finger and wanting to go Carbon bars and seat post so bought some nice Bombshell bars and EC90 post, always dropping that weight

That is very beautiful!

I don't know what the weather is like in Middle Earth but here on the south coast of England where I live it warmed up a little for a fortnight and I went for some rides on my bike. Now the temperatures are back down close to freezing again and it is too cold for me.

THX, I guess Arkansas should really be called closer to middle USA

We just had one of the longest cold streaks and lingering snow I can remember but had our first good riding day Wed. So my son and I did a little 20 mile warm up to start the season

How much is it now?

How much is it now?

22.9 if I remove my tool pouch (Tube, Co2 & valve), I find it essential on long rides by myself!

OK that's light! Mine is about 25 or so.

This baby is actually my first love, my Audio comes 2nd. And cost me more than all of my Audio rig combined. Still slowly upgrading her towards full FRM setup, already geared with Shimano XTR 12s, Brakes etc, then some Endgame suspension of FOX 32.....

Looks dope! How much was it if I may ask?

Thanks, as in the pics it's already at USD3.5K all in, and that's parts only as I hand build everything so no cost on build ups (I built my bikes piece by piece). With the upgrades of FRM goodies and FOX SC32 coming very soon, I expect another USD1.5K of addition

I figured it's about 3K or so, so was close enough Although time put into this project doesn't count, it would be probably worth a lot. Just took a look at those Fox shocks. Geez, that's expensive alright!

LOL that one in the pic is a rigid carbon by Exotic UK. And yes they are super sexy. THe FOX SC 32 will be coming in next month and it will look like this .....which will allow me to do some serious XC courses

Was in need of fresh tires on the Ripmo... went with gumwalls this time around. Digging the look against the matte black frame and Kashima fork stanchions.

Lovely bike. After taking a look at its price I honestly regret that
