It's a dingle-speed Kona Splice with Salsa CroMoto -fork. I think it's better than just go and buy a unit from LBS. Learnt a valuable lesson building this. I thought that going from ground up would have been bit too big piece for a novice like me.

Hoses are little long. Haven't had an inspiration to shorten them yet.

..and yes that's a peg for dog-trailer. :cool:

I believe with the money spent for extras for your hopper, you could be piloting a Carve Pro. The geo is very close. The biggest bang for the buck after market fix should have been the wheels. The only thing on my 13 Carve Pro I would upgrade would be the wheels as well. Anyhoot, ya gotta a nice rig, and looks like ya gotta nice place to
ride it.

Thank you, but I didn't spend nearly new prices on those parts. All used in great condition for much much much less than msrp. A new wheelset would be many times more than what I spent and the bike came with a trash fork and subpar shifting setup and pedals. So those were an immediate must. I won't be upgrading this bike anymore since its not worth it. I'm just going to ride the heck out of it and then build a full suspension bike when I finish grad school and get a job that actually pays money.

My Niner Air9 RDO

Here is my new bike I am building. The Niner Air9 RDO. It is a 1x10 with X9 cranks with a spiderless chainring, XTR RD, and XT cassette. It is using a few parts from another bike until my new ones come so it is not as light as it will be when complete but it weighs 20.5 lbs.
