Sold a couple of bikes and found this 29er instead. Found it at Mtbr.com (thanks to MynameisCasper), and paid a great amount for postage and taxes in Denmark.
Looking forward to building it up and have my first ride on it, feels "downhillbikeheavy", but the wheels are light enough, probably about 2 kgs...

Yes I have, but I'm busy at work. I'll probably take it for the first ride wednesday and take some nice daylight pictures then.
