Re:

...more tweaks on the way...now have a Wheels Manufacturing red BB and red KCNC headset fitted. Yet to fit but will do soon.

Travers Bikes "Prong" carbon rigid fork. (wide enough to take a 29+ should I want to)
Hope Pro4 Enduro red hubbed wheels.
Sunrace 11-46 cassette (so I can run a 34 front).
Hope Tech 3 X2 red front and rear brakes. And red Hope floating rotors. (replaced 4 XT M8000 levers after they got sticky, then stuck!)

Been riding a rigid Genesis over the winter and thought I would try some rigid forks for the Travers, still keeping the Rebas though. Went for the Enduro wheels as after riding at 24/12 last year I noticed a few hairline cracks around the eyelets of the rear XC rim. Hope replaced them no problem, but thought maybe Enduro rims might suit my riding style a bit more! The hubs were faultless however.

When its up and running Ill get a few pics up...

Love this bike still....probably done in the region of 7000 miles on it now.

Hmm possibly interested...too much red tho? I am asking the wrong guy when it comes to colour coordinating!

Not if you stop there. £15 posted isn't much of a risk.

Thanks for the offer I will bear it in mind...

Re:

Nice upgrades. Personally would avoid too much red like a stem etc. It rarely fades equally and then looks mismatched and cheap

I tend to agree... the bars are the red/black Haven ones in the pic. Which I think would look good with the red/black Hope levers. But have a black Haven stem already and the forks are black also....

Yep. Keep it at that. Very nice
