After 5 months of buying parts my SB75 is finally done.
This bike rides amazingly well compared to my old Yeti ASX DH rig and Norco Fluid LT 6.2 trail bike.

I love this bike climbs like a goat and descends like a bat out of hell. The only thing that holds it back right now is me as I am recovering from a bad wreck on my old ASX 11 months ago.

Fork: Fox Float 150 with Yeti Slick graphics kit
Stem: Easton Haven 55MM
Bars: Race face SixC Turquoise
Brakes: Shimano XT ice tech 180 f 160 R (I'm going 180 soon)
Shifter: Shimano XT 10 Speed
Rear der: Shimano XTR shadow plus long cage
Cassette: Shimano XT w/ One up 42t low gear and 16T up grade
BB: Chris King Turquoise
Headset: Chris King Turquoise
Wheels: Chris King Turquoise hubs with DT swiss spokes laced to light bicycle enduro/DH rims
Tires: WTB Vilgante 2.35 set up as tubless
Grips: ODI Troy lee
Post: KS LEV 125MM
Seat: Fizik Aliante VS
Pedals: Old set of HT's for now

Sweet whip!

I have a very similar build... med 75 w/ RF Turbine/XT 2X10 drivetrain, XT IceTech breaks, short stem (RF Atlas 50mm/0deg) with SIXC 3/4 bars.

The most noticeable tweak I found was switching from a 70mm/711mm stem/bar combo to a 50mm/785mm combo. That alone transformed the bike into an absolute monster of a climber and added stability that I never could have imagined! But you've already got that covered :thumbsup:

Enjoy!!!
