Very nice! Looking forward to watching this develop

Some progress! Collected all the parts for this build. It will be full XT...

Got some new Judy FSX decals...

Titanium stem and bar

Just not sure about the wheels. Have some Parralax XT with Ground Masters or maybe some Spinergy Spox with Smoke/Dart? What do you think?

Dude, you have a lot of Specialized's. I hope you dont mind a slight thread jack for a second......you might be able to help me. I have a 95 FSR Sport with the coil RST shock in the rear....I need to replace it...do you have a Fox Alps or Risse rear shock laying around? I would take it off your hands....

Now, back to your bike....Looks amazing so far. I love Stumpy's.

Sorry mate, no shocks in the shed... But remind me, these FSR's take a 150mm shock?

Ah, thanks for the reply man. I am pretty sure it is 150mm, its a very hard shock to find, very short stroke I think maybe 1.5" of travel maybe 2" at the most.

Very trick!

I love a good xc hardtail, amberwalls is a yes from me!

 

[shogun]

Specialized must have Specialized tyres IMHO. This will be good!

 

[stumpjumper1990]

Spinergy with amberwalls??

Call me Mr. Boring but I like the XT/Ground Control wheelset combo.
