So my wife agreed after my weight loss I could treat myself to a full suspension bike. I've been working my wotsits off doing a fair amount of overtime and saving hard so I began to piece together the puzzle..

First came the forks,

Then some brakes and an xt 2x10 groupset (no pic of the groupset),

Time to give the game away...

I fitted a complete invisiframe kit to protect it

Brakes and shifters/cables in place along with reverb stealth,

Rear wheel adapters arrived so after a 10hour shift at work I could get things moving again,

Re: My combined Christmas/30th present

heck yea what a great choice. The Bronson looks like a winner. I like your choice of parts its all really nice stuff. The Pike fork should be stiff and plush.
 
Thanks guys :D

Slope, I've lost 4.5stone since January, I've got a very understanding wife too lol.

So finished the build off, took some pics straight after but have since adjusted bars, levers etc. will be changing some cable routing too.

Been for a couple of rides on it and absolutely loving it :)
 
Stunning looking bike mate. SC have really got some sweet looking bikes this year. Am jealous am stuck in the middle of the North Sea and cant get to ride my mine :(
 
What a lovely bike!!! You have chosen some nice parts too! not much id change if it were mine apart from ditching the front mech/granny ring!
 
Looks great. Lots of folk complaining about the CTD shocks though so would be interested to hear your opinion on that.
