Orange P7 outlaw build. sort of finished.

Ok, I'm currently out on the P7, off road for the first time.
I've just taken some pictures which I'll upload later.
After a tough climb, where the gears were skipping a bit, grrr, I then blasted down the other side! On my full sus modern bike it feels very smooth and tame, but on this! It took all my balls just to stay off the brakes! and any small bump is an opportunity to Launch! Great fun!

Cool. Personally I'd go with xtr spuds and a flat bar, but it's your personal preference.

Looking great. Did you drop it in by helicopter or carry it there? Not a sign of dirt...
But then, I remember how irrationally upset I get when a build gets mucky....ride it, ride it....

Flat bars? No thanks.

I wish I had a helicopter, easier to get to the top!

Definitely with you on no flat bar. Love it. Needs a rear mech to match , it deserves one

Thanks, I was/am on the lookout for a higher spec SRAM mech, esp9.0 but no luck as yet.

Looks great! I don't remember G-Force bars being that big... Were there a few different rise options?

Thanks, I don't know what the options were at the time, but I went for the highest, widest ones I could get.
