...

that is absolutely beautiful.

there's a purity to it that just does it for me, like there's not a single millimetre of unnecessary metal on it.

Tidy...............very tidy.
Clean and crisp XC machine.
22lbs is sweet
Enjoy buddy

Thanks. I like to keep 'em as minimal as possible.

it seems my STX-shifters-with-everything policy has me in good company too

Nothing Better

That is pure Bike P*rn, nicest Bike I have seen on the site, they handle like a total dream. I have one of the old Specialised Videos- Pulp Traction and these frames are well featured, I have always wanted one, but they are very rare now, just missed one in Mango last year. Are you going to actually ride it? They really do shift!

Oh yeah, I'll definitely be riding it! I never add anything to my stable I don't intend to give plenty of trail time to. :twisted:

Very nice I've owned a couple of Stumpjumpers, M2 and steel, but never an S-Works :cry: bet it handles well

Your Steel is a very beautiful example! I really like it, especially the TNT cranks look sweet.
