Re:

Yeh I’d think the combined brake shifter combo would save maybe another 50-75g but not sure it’s worth the outlay. I’ll mull it over.


In terms of it being a keeper who knows. It’s a lovely bike and in great condition but it’s just a bit clinical. Let’s see how it rides when I get chance.

It´s reading 4x the xtr logos that bothers me.. not the 50grs

Definitely get a 23in hbar.

4 logos , no way there’s at least 6 XTR logos in that front facing pic. How else will everyone know it’s xtr ? Lol

Re:

First ride tonight and took some pics.

It’s a nice ride for sure. So smooth ,quiet and quick. Lots nicer than a Zaskar as it’s not as harsh but feels stiff at same time.

It has good geometry. I would keep it... AND... find a Kore seatpost and stem.

Re:

I’ve got some Kore bits on my Zaskar so fancy a change.


Next is handlebars , tyres and a Ti cage

Thanks mate. It’s a very clinical build but looks lovely in person
