I present without comment... an ex-demo Ragley Mmmbop 1.0 in Parma Violet

Ragley Mmmbop 1.0 Link cos I cant work out how to post an Imgur link as an image.

SLX drivetrain, Brand-X Dropper, Rockshox Yari 150mm Fork, decent spec Maxxis DHRII/DHF. SRAM DB8 mineral oil brakes.

Pretty happy with the price I paid and the condition for an ex-demo bikes. Some scrapes here and there but that's going to happen anyway.

I've added the purple deathgrips and v11 pedals and there's some purple/violet Peaty's valves on the way to me too.

Rides lovely and I love the whippy feel of the 27.5 wheels compared to my FS 29er... until I lost grip in a loose corner and managed to throw myself over the bars and b0rk my shoulder... fingers crossed it's healed for Boltby later in May.

Anyway, I like it 🙂

That's a rare case of purple being tastefully done

Very nice, and absolutely doesn't need a load of anodised Hope bling tacked on to it.

Looks super-nice, but personally I would not put any more purple on 😀

And I like purple.

Edit to say the build looks bang on too. Is that an off-the-shelf Ragley spec do you know? There's nothing at all I'd personally want to change out, expect possibly a bigger rotor up front assuming it's currently 180/180.

I'm thinking of adding a little silver here and there - just to balance it out.

Spec is stock and braking power (so far) is good enough for me!

Well, props to Ragley for a well-specced build IMO.

Enjoy it, it looks rad 🙂

Very nice that.
Thought it might have been a Giant.
Maybe a purple Reign?

Love a nice hardtail 👌

That's a mighty prop stick behind the nice bike.
