Wow, I didn't even know that that frame isn't a real C-26. Very nice build indeed. 
I approve of these 'modifications', but wouldn't do it myself.
It's all fine by me as long as people don't try to sell them off as genuine ones. :? Could be lucrative though, since the last 'real' one sold for around 12000 USD.
*edit: Good info on the site too, thanks!

I didn't read it all through before I made my comment, ''deferred'' sounds much better in place indeed!MikeD":37pczfg3 said:Not sure it's fair to call it "not real". "Not original", maybe, although original tubeset and builder. Maybe just "deferred"
I am behind you all the way (said the Bishop to the Acress), hot-rodding this NOT RARE frame is perfectly cool.
Have any of you people ever been to a car show? No one rolls around on the floor moaning over a chopped, channeled, smoothed, fully independent, disc braked, V-8, 32 coupe!

Sorry man, no hard feelings really, its just metal pipes... but think about it, if the answer to that question is not clear as water maybe you are not a so hardcore Yeti rider after all (and now I am not talking about the pathetic tribe marketing bullshit mtbr-yeti sheeps love to claim they belong to).
This kind of modding of collectors pieces is the no 1 reason I specifically ask whoever buys my Yeti frames I had for sale not to mess with them.
