Ok people it has arrived...... Mt beautiful 29er from the big S. The shop called me on Monday arvo and I was down there as fast as jack rabbit. I was excited to say the least. It is a fantstic looking machine and once I had all the SRAM and shimano drive train off and put the single speed stuff on I was fuckn wrapped and pumped for a pedal. The frame is M5 tubing and finished in a matt black and blue paint (goes well with the blue White Industries chain ring). The bike is a monster on the trail, it handles the windy single track well and rolls over everything I have thrown at it so far. The test will be this weekend at the KONA 24.
So today is pack up and drive day to forest for the KONA.....should be a blast. Pitty one of our team members is unable to attend ( I promise we will have heaps of fun for you and remind you every chance we get!!!). Will post upon returning with lots of photos.
