Right. I've been selling stuff like mad to fund a bit of Acceleration in this Project.
I've sold that DT-Swiss shock. I'm not happy With how I mounted it. Plus, despite someone convincing me I needed Remotes for shock and fork. I've also decided thats just not for me. @BareNecessities was kind enough to knock up some CAD pics fopr me. Which has convinced me to stick With the advised 120mm travel up front, and a short stem. The frame is designed to be a snappier Version of the Meta AM. Shorter stays, Shorter travel, lighter (LOL) etc. I think I'll be screwing With this if I chuck a 130/140mm fork on.
Ordered:
I'll be downgrading the fatbike to get this one built. So I'll be using my Hope M4 brakes, and Crank bros mallet pedals (I will replace these on the fatbike With some candys and some more budget friendly brakes).
In the process of finishing off the Wheels and mounting tyres. Just need cranks, chainring, and rear axle.
Really this bike is as fun in the Mountains, as it lookes to be on paper.
