My new baby.

I had my LBS swap the front derailleur to an X9 and go tubeless for the tires. I installed my carbon Bontrager Race bars and seat post.

Thats a good lookin ride. Those bars are sweet and im diggin the grip and seat color combo. Only complaint is your bike is way to clean lol. Gotta get some dirt on that thing.

I love hardtail. I rode a Nishiki Pinnacle on and off for 10 years. Then I got my Gary Fisher HooKoo and now this. I could see having a FS if I lived in Colorado and did alot of downhill bombing, but I don't. For the once every 5 years or so that I do make it out west, a hardtail works great.
