What is it????
22 giant trance x 29 - size large. Moving all the parts over from my trance 29. Fortunately, I already had that bike overbuilt with a 36 and 200mm rotors, so everything transfers nicely. I think I'll be under 29lbs ready to ride with this thing.
At first I thought you were being sarcastic then I realized that it wasn't shrink wrapped.veey cool. Dig the paint job.
Nice!Waiting for correct caliper adapters after WW cyclery sent the wrong ones (someone at the shop mislabeled them)
After that all is left is bleeding the brakes after shortening hydro hoses and its all ready to go!

Doesn't sound like a good name for a Bike kolNice. My first bike was an Orange Santa Cruz. I think they called it "mountain rescue orange" or something like that. LOL.
Now you can get down to some serious "hopping" on that rig!!Went on "shakedown" ride today, some parts were transferred from old bike - cranks with chainring , saddle and stem and handlebars with grips..
Right away there was grinding on the front chainring when chain was coming off, turned out chain ring has to be replaced due to worn out teeth..
Old frame going to Aero Weld in Inglewood for crack welding and it will become second bike..

I kid.
Very nice bike
I need to know your secret. E-bikes are out of my price range.I play the part…first long travel bike for me. Sooo good.
Also, you never go full retail. The only way I could afford these things. I’m likely paying less for these than an off the shelf specialized, trek or giant of equivalent spec.
SB 160? Damn dude, you’re looking for some serious terrain! Beautiful rig. Congrats.
I almost went E. AlmostI need to know your secret. E-bikes are out of my price range.
Oops, did I say that out loud?
Yes, sb160. Smooths out the typical chunk at Aliso and Oaks. Can’t wait to take it to Santa Cruz and Downieville .SB 160? Damn dude, you’re looking for some serious terrain! Beautiful rig. Congrats.
I wonder how many closet e-bikers are on this site.I almost went E. Almost
