Still looking for decent rear wheel a set of shifter and rear mech pref SRAM. Built it up enough to ride for now and am so impressed the ride is so stable rear end is forgiving feels like a real aggressive xc bike! Updates as I get some nicer bits for it!

As it sits.

Awesome! Nice forks also

Cheers! Initial rides I've found the forks super plush and stiff.

I run mine with a little less pressure and i've never had them bottom out, and they feel like they have zero flex. Highly under rated fork that just look amazing! You know that they went bust this year i think? Funny enough just as Fox dabble with a similar set up. Only thing missing is a lock out.

Super cool fella. Lets have some pics once finished



Oh locktite on the guard bolts. Tip i was given

What are the decals like on yours I could use a new set so after some pictures Gil can mak some from. Really nice fork and obv looks amazing!

Update. Charge splashbacks matching rear wheel. Carbon pro tapers. Xt shifters and shadow mech. Just awaiting a chain before maiden voyage!

First post on this site and probably a silly way of going about it.

I had my Yeti ARC stolen from me in Oxford a few months ago. I love this particular frame and model unlike the newer ones being produced. Any suggestions about tracking one down as I'd like to start over again?
