Just picked this up today for a very good price.

Has around £400 of receipts from this year alone for fork & Shock service, new chainrings, New Crossmax rear wheel, Xtr rear mech .. and more.

Its Super light and a pleasure to ride.

Cant wait to get out on it properly :D :D

nice and seems to be fun to ride :)

love that small mudguard - anybody knows where you can get them, as my 2006 Stumpjumper FS is missing it, but would be a great thingy to prevent the damper from mud and snow.

A Lizardskin shock bootie will work better though, as on my Enduro there is always a block of mud on the bottom of the shock shaft thingy anyway.

Took a couple more pictures last night while I was waiting to clock out at work!!

SO far I love this bike, It's amazing off road, the suspension just soaks up everything my local trails have to offer (Saddleworth) and even climbing I just lock the front & back out and its away, shame i'm not!! haha

I have put some skinnier tyres on for commuting to work at the moment as no need on wearing out my good ones on the road.

Mavic Crossride Straight pull hub & Spokes, something a bit different

I love these pedals, one piece CNC'd Aluminium. mmmmmm
