Radtail alert!!! Clear powdercoat is the way to go! It's PC, but no pigment in it. Would look great!

@Faust29 These guys know what they were doing for some enduro fun trails. It ticks ALL the right boxes!
I'd leave it decal free if you want people asking what bike that is. Congrats!!!

Looks cute. Seems to be missing essentials inside the triangle. To me.
I don't drink a lot of water on a ride, but at least one bottle mount would be nice. Am I missing something?
EDIT: Never mind, I think I see one. But, one?
Yep... One inside. I'm used to that limitation with the Chameleon.

Your finished checklist is pretty much what my wish list was...
With frames being scarce, I'm glad I missed out on a few of the ones I went after on PinkBike. Except for the Honzo ESD. That would have been a score... And I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger when Jensen had the Norco in stock... It was close! That looks like a great bike, minus the dropout situation.

They need to take a lesson from Pivot!
and this is scaled back from where they were a couple of years ago when you could count about ten logos from a side view, not including proprietary parts like bearings.

Right on, a Blur killer!
I see the chain don't-stay protector is working normally.
I directed Revel to a conversation about that, and they told me it would be addressed with R&D. Meanwhile, Revel will shoot you out a new one if you ask. Not that the same thing will stay on. They reco cranking the new one down with zip ties overnight.

That was last month.Didn't you just get a new bike?!
Besides it's in perfect condition so it'd be easy to sell...

Good info, thanks. Thats actually the reason I was taking pics in the first place.
Wasnt sure if it was too trivial to complain about. That, and the der. hanger was a bit nicked up.

Not really. I saw this on FB today .... it was apparently at The Luge flag this afternoon.
Hhmmm....I'm guessing another Santiago fire may be in the making. That's sketchy at best, and a downright dangerous fire hazard at worst.

Came home from trip to find a box in the garage. Having been reading text messages between my sisters and wife I had a sinking feeling I knew what it was. But I figured if I pretend it didn't exist....
Shortly thereafter it was mentioned that, as I thought, she bought an eBike.
, and it was requested I put it together. Ok I can do that, you know happy wife happy life and a that.......
I assembled something that sort of resembled bike. It has a battery, pedals, and about 12" tires. Once completed I hopped on it to see. Well...if ebike are anything like this they ARE DEFINITELY not bicycles. It's not fast, but once you start peddling it takes over and you couldn't pedal fast enough to keep up if you wanted to. But don't need to anyway, it has a throttle! 15 mph and 15 mile range.
It was kind of fun to ride, she likes it much more. Prefect for...hell I don't know what. But she's happy so I'm happy to.
Here you go, an electric Mini Bike for your visual pleasure!

Yuck.
I’d rather go back to watching videos of the guys doing the Luge on gravel bikes…

Sorry, Dan.
I appreciate the sentiment/condolences.
The bike I did buy her a year ago has about 4 miles on it, so literally like new, and pretty good for what it is. Guess it's going up for sale now.

I have fixed so many flats on those Costco Jetson bikes. They are really gutless....
