Who has a Sanderson..?

If so which one, are they as nice built up as they look 'au natural'?

How do they ride, are they nippy and light..?

Thoughts please.. Ta!

I've got a Soloist and my mate has a life and they are lovely bikes! well finished and just ride 'right', nice and solid with no rattles! I ride an 18" and I'm 6"1.

Incredibly well finished bikes, I was really impressed. Built a Breath up for a mate and it was amazing. Got a deal from Flying Fox Bikes.

I've recently built up a Life (from Flying Fox bikes)
The finish on the frame was beautiful.

Has a very nice balanced feel - and I've really enjoyed riding it.
(6ft 1 and went for a 18". Use 100mm Rebas at the front).

yo!

yes, they're top frames. had mine going both up and down proper mountains for a year. wasn't much that i felt i couldn't tackle (within reason for a XC bike).

brilliant finish on the frames. nicely finished drop-outs.

you will only get 160mm rotor in at the rear but it will take 2.4 maxxis tyres.

have had 80mm mani-poos (very head down/sharp/quick steering) in there as well as the revs. usually ride it stuck at around 120ish.

here's what mine currently looks like

and here's what it looked like a few weeks ago whilst my other bike was on the mend (wider bars and different brakes; ride better with wider bar)
