The aluminum version is the "Troof". (not really the same bike, but according to them it's another "DH slack" design of theirs)

Zee Krampus. I saw one at a local shop last month. Beautiful.

If it was mine: strip it down. Single speed death machine.

I think it's great for the obvious, but I still think the big meats would not benefit so much in the dry. I think a good 2.2-2.4" tire would be noticeably snappier...especially for the singlespeed setup.

I only say that b/c I'm running a SB8 2.1r and Slant6 2.3f on my 26'er rigid SS and it's less effort and noticeably faster on the trail as a whole. Sure, the chop can be a bit of a chore, but the less choppy stuff between can be motored through with a maddening quickness.


Different strokes though...I'd still luv to have me a phatbyke.


Excellent addition to the thread though...though I don't know the frame numbers yet. Do you know the CS length and HA?
