Yup!
I believe this is a 2016 model, I really enjoyed riding it. Only thing I missed was the remote lockout from my hard tail. |

Recently built up a new wheelset: Flows (white for 1/2 the price of black = OK) on a new front X9 hub, reused Bontrager SS rear hub I've been running since 2010 & new DHFs front & rear - sans tubes.
...and an Avalanche open bath cartridge in my Pike . :) |
Nice supergo! How did you manage the tight chain without a tensioner?
|
My favorite vintage MTB, an '84 Alpina Uno. Has a Shimano SIS (thumbies) 3x6. It's a kick to ride.

That said, it gave me some chain issues on the trail yesterday from getting bounced around so much, so I'll be switching to a chain tensioner + 8 speed chain. It won't look as clean, but it's a worthwhile sacrifice for functionality. |

From Yesterday's ride.

Built up a 93 Diamondback Ascent EX frame with a mix of late 80s and early 90s components. Just wanted to mess around on local singletrack trails this fall. 3x6 friction shifting and all. No tough riding and what i came across was easily handled. Im slowly building up a '93 Mongoose IBOC Comp SX frame which should be fun and hopefully fit well. Looking forward to spring! https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1559/...453a0e92_k.jpg |

I would have given Yeti serious consideration, but my local Yeti dealer didn't give me the time of day when I went there. They lost a big sale.

24 lbs for a full suspension is light! Love the color scheme. How does the rigid 29er ride? Which one you spent most of your time riding?
I am still riding a 26 full suspension. 28 lbs. Always etching to get a new bike!

'89 Raleigh technium Ovation, $30, '93 Giant Boulder,$35. The Giant was basically mint with
rockshox, nothing too special but the price. Adequate for a geezer like me. It's been nearly 60 years since I used to downhill an old Monarch with a springer fork & 3" balloons. That was more than a dozen fractures ago. I've a bit more sedate riding style these days. :eek: |
