Ben Swales Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Since I've just washed it, I thought I'd stick a picture of the Yeti in here. It's a few years old, but so much fun to ride. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daviesdt Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 @niconj that sombre single star, there is no derailleur on it, is that a fixed gear MTB? Hows that work then!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, you just have to use a gear that you can climb hills with and pedal fast enough to keep up with the geared bikes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeersSlayer Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Early ride at -7 C about 2 km from my house. Great trail conditions, winter is hanging on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Too much green? Maybe! Brand-X dropper, green el-cheapo silicon grips, Nukeproof pedals, 3D printed ISCG mounted bashguard are the recent additions: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeersSlayer Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) I don't think I'll ever be able to hop this bike much. Lofting the front is Ok, the back... Follow the ice block road (snow groomed for skate-skiing in winter, after many spring thaw-freeze cycles.) Bumpy, wet, and uphill. Once the single track trails dry up a bit (currently lots of spring-runoff new lakes and streams there), I'll switch to the mountain bike.

bing Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 Got a Boardman pro 29er on cycle to work. SRAM gx 1x11, guide r 4 pots, formula hubs. I changed the tyres from the shite standard fit conti's to maxxis ardents before I'd even rode it. One ride later and it's been treated to riser bars, new seat and odi longnecks. It's spot on, definetley faster than my full suss and it handles quite good as well. It doesn't turn as quick but it's bang on for what I want it for, which is a bit of xc and blue/ some red routes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 29ers are where it's at! Love my Spec Camber Evo. Changed the cranks to x1 nw and the bars to renthals with ODI jobbies. Still can't bring myself to sell my nomad though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Bleech Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Gravity 27five SS for hacking about on. Needs some wider bars and a slicker saddle just for looks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Not much has changed, forks and rear shock went to be serviced and tuned over the winter, it's had a service and El Guapo Ancho bars on rather then my Renthals, it's not as fun but it's alot more stable on trail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a floating linkage that acts when the shock linkage moves meaning that the cranks stay in the same (relative) place, which in turn means the chain doesn't have any funky tight/loose situations no matter where the shock is in it's stroke, or how much the effective chainstay length changes throughout that stroke. It's really quite a piece of design when you get to see and poke around it in the flesh. Pluuss the entire frame & s/arm is a massive tanky carbon MF, so y'know, that helps too...

Ah so is it an extension of the I-drive type thing but with the whole shell moving rather than just a separate rotating component? Looked like the frame designers forgot to put somewhere to bolt cranks and just chucked that cnc lump on the bottom! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 I remember the bloke in Rufford cycles when I went to test a few bikes out telling me there wasn't many places in Britain that an orange 5 was actually needed. That GT I can't think of anywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
