That looks a LOT like my bike. Same frame, handlebar, freewheel, seat. I have changed to Elixir CR since this pic was taken. You are right, it is a really nice riding frame.

Yep, I saw your bike on another thread and thought the same thing - that's funny. I love the Mary bar and ENO freewheel - big improvements. The saddle's off my old road bike and it fits this bike's personality perfectly. I was looking for a used Sid or Fox F80. Ended up getting a decent deal on a Fox off eBay. That was a huge performance upgrade for the bike - plus it shed almost 2lbs! The brakes are the next thing to upgrade - but for the global collapse of capitalism I would have a pair of Juicy 7s by now. BTW, the stock WTB Speed Disc rims are easy to convert to tubeless using Stan's.

Are you in the DC area too? Too funny to meet on a local trail - Team Exile!

didn't pick that up from an absurdly nice guy at a great price at pape subway station did ya?
:thumbsup:

looks great in it's new incarnation!
oddly enough I've been looking at monstercrossing something and my old hoolie popped into my head!
if you ever feel like it, I fit 29x2" tires in that thing, only about 4 mm of mud clearance IIRC, but 29x42's or something will fit great i figure!

enjoy the old big red dog.
At an absurdly wicked price too I might add. Fantiastic frame and ride. And except for me f-ing up the b/b install and stripping the nondrive side threads,no issues at all.
