general information
Riding type:
Trail/All Mountain
Weight: 14,020g (30lb 14.5oz)
Custom made using all fully mechanical parts as after trying the electronics I still prefer the traditional system. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the electronics, but I just like the mechanical feel. There have been some tweaks to the rear shock and a TruTune Carbon insert on the Pike 140mm fork to ensure a vibration-free launch and better ramp control. The award winning Trailmech Enduro hubs were chosen for this bespoke wheel build as the Vortex system is simply fantastic and they are attached to XYZ Pro Carbon Fiber AM rims with silver spokes to match the silver parts and also the deep purple color scheme of the to highlight the frame properly. To save some extra weight, the Baslerstab handlebar with integrated stem from Farbwerk is used together with the 9Point8 Fall Line R seatpost to easily add additional weight compared to other handlebar-stem combinations or other heavier seatposts that weigh around 500 grams 250 to 300 g to save 600 grams.
