Oops I've done it - full suspension carbon goodness

[PhilStone]

Despite staying away from full sus for years and years, a mate of mine has started a bike shop and offered me a new bike at the wrong time - about 5 minutes after I received a bonus from my new employer...

Took all of 30 seconds and before I knew it I'd said yes to a new bike..

It's just arrived at his store and about to be built, which is infuriating as I'm in France now until the 11th for my wedding!

Only pic I have at the moment is in its box, will update this post as/when I get more pics and as it evolves...

Oh the shame! I agree with slope, you need to sort your priorities and come home and build it.

mmmmmmm, I hope it's the bare carbon, not a painted one

Put the Fighters on last night but for some reason they just don't suit the bike as well as the Fusions do.. Shame but oh well..

2 sets of RC40's coming up for sale it is then!

Going to complete the merge of the 456c and this over the weekend - more pics and updated spec to follow

Oh yeah, full-suss rocks!!! :twisted:
