[Closed] Show me your enduro/all-mountain/newfangled marketing term bikes.

Gotta feel for Katie - those '06 Enduros are a beast to lug round 😉

Here is mine. Very underrated bikes. Too bad they don't make them anymore.

Mine, taken back when the weather was playing ball. She has changed a bit since then but no more recent pics unfortunately

[img] [/img]

Will post some pics when its built up. Didnt think we would get it and ended up bidding whilst waiting to see the Physics teacher at parents evening.

Dont feel sorry for Katie, its built up fairly light and a small frame.

When I get gears on it it'll be a bit mire versatile, but I haven't ridden my FS for ages now!

@alpin

At my age/size ragging a bike is merely sitting on top of it.
God forbid i need to go over BUMPS.

I only ride other peoples bikes over bumps, to keep mine in one piece.

OK then, despite what I said back on page 1*, here is mine:

Had this in this afternoon one of our team riders bikes for this season, it's seriously nice bit of kit.

Another DSP Dueler on there too, It's nice to finally have a future proof bike that I can get tuned exactly how I want it without finding out it's flawed in some way.

It goes up well, it goes down well. Would love some Pikes on it....

The new bike after it's first ride :). It replaced a strange alpine five which would have been much less fun round cannock. Fingers crossed it'll still be better when I ride it somewhere with more hills.

Think my old Trance fits the bill:

Is it me or are there quite a few fugly bikes in this thread?
Theres a few nice ones but theres quite a few that im not sure i could even put my leg over.

Picked this up the weekend, 650b stereo 160 HPC race. My first 650b bike and first carbon bike. First impressions are a fun year ahead

Loco can't quite see from the pic but I am guessing with it having a coil shock at a mach 6? Haven't seen one before but it does look good. I have only just got my alu mach 5.7 built up. Still need to get that monarch plus back to you to be made to fit this new frame.

Oooooooo, loco. This is what I've seriously got my eye on. Getting a demo in a few weeks. Has it ben ridden yet? Any feedback on it?

Heres my Cube 29 Stereo now 1 x 10 just a tad over 25lbs with 150mm Pikes

My Covert.

Just got my hands on a pivot mach 5.7C but can't post pics off my kindle

@Moda, let me just say, phwoar. How do you find it? Came very close to buying one of those the other day...

The Mach 6 came with a ctd x as standard and we'd fitted one of the Dueler rear shocks as a replacement to try out in stock trim before we strip and modify it a bit 😉
The frame was only in this afternoon and is off to be inviswrapped tomorrow, also have a set of x fusion sweeps to fit to it when it comes back ( got my own set too this week 😀 )
Will post some more pictures as it get built up Dave Buchanan ( whose bike it is) always has a nice build with some interesting touches to finish them properly.

Initial rides very positive.

Reverb waiting to go on

Loving that Pauly (page 2) and that Rosss (page 3)

@Northwind, So far so good but have only done a few rides and a skills day with the legendary Jedi. Real test will come on the next Wales trip at the end of April.

I'm not Enduro(TM) enough for this thread...... 😉

Here's mine, 1x10 since this pic though.[img] [/img]

Cheers Moda!

Here we go, then. Loving it.

[img] [/img]

Intense 6.6 with Marz 66. Pedals uphill ok, but needs the shock setting for a better platform. Down the other side it's a complete beast.

[img] [/img]

Loving this so far, esp. the plushness in the forks. Granted it's a heavy (37lbs) beastie but it's good. Might change the tyres which will get it down to 35lbs. Could lose another 2lbs with new Pikes and another lb with light bars/stem and a lb with cane creek air shock, maybe 1/2lb by dropping the guide and putting on a n/w, but all that cash just to bring it down to 30-31lbs isn't worth it to me. My plan is to get strong enough to pedal it uphill fast as it is!

My ugly duckling! Bit weighty by modern standards but it's worth hauling up the climbs for the grins it gives me coming back down. Practically an antique now with it's 1 1/8 headtube, 27.2 seat tube and 26" wheels, I manage ok though! Dual ply wetscream is still on for dh duties, normally run another baron up front for everything else.

How did you actually manage to make it so heavy - how much does the frame weigh?

No idea. Just telling you what the scales say! (accurate Salter carp scales). Coil forks and shock, dual ply tyres and dh tubes, a 400g bar and reverb etc. I don't mind though, it feels as capable as my dh bike on descents and I'm usually ahead of my mates on climbs.

Still, if it weighed 26lbs I'd be even happier!

My 5 spot!!

No mate,
Tank traps at swinley forest, which I think is now completely flooded.

Amazing how trees, roots and bends all look so similar lol

Here's the most recent one.

@pbooker1995 who did the custom fork decals for you?

I like the tic-tac colourscheme P-Dog. Bit different but you've got it just right.

How the flip did you get an Alpine with Reverb under 30lbs? Helium in the shocks?

I was thinking the same regarding that alpine, I had mine at 30.3lbs (with dmr vaults fitted rather than my mallet dh pedals) before I replaced the rp23 with a ccdb air, put a carbon mrp amg top guide/bash on and replaced the shite but light ashima rotors with ice tecs but my spec looks to be lighter than that one - carbon sram cranks with spiderless n/w chainring, carbon havocs/Thomson stem, xtr brakes, selle Italia Troy lee flite, x fusion Hilo (which is actually lighter than my reverb on the other bike surprisingly), crossmax wheels, conti barons, xt cassette, zee mech, saint shifter, devilles. It's back up just over 31lbs now but it rides better. You can't get an alpine much under 30lbs without compromising what the bike is actually intended for imo.

Just picked it up today!

People often add the component weights of their bikes and call that the weight, when a good set of scales sometimes would unhinge their theories 🙂

Well it's running fox 34's. Hope Race evo m4 brakes with 180/160 floating rotors. Rp23. Light set of tyres but not compromised.

Easton carbon bars and hope grips. XT rear mech and cranks with XTR Shifter. Flows on pro 2 evo's.

@glasgowden. Measured on some part tool scales at my LBS so pretty sure it's spot on.

Pedals also only weigh 350g so that helps.

If I'm honest, when I bought it 5 months ago it was 34 LBS. And I wanted to get it below 30lbs without making it less of an AM bike. With a good choice of solid but light components I have managed it.

Slikgraphics for the decals.

@Tony, loving the GT mate, what's your first impressions of it?

pbooker - my bad, didn't realise you were running 34's, thought they were 36's, sounds about right with light pedals and spesh control casings keeping the weight down on the wheels. I had coil lyriks on mine before the devilles so although the devilles are a heavy fork they were still a weight saving over the lyriks!

@endurokid first impressions are good, top tube is a nice length and the cockpit feels natural, so that's a good thing. It's a bit of a fatty and 31lbs without pedals, but rides light.

I popped my knee over Christmas, will hopefully give this it's first ride in anger late March, will update you then!

Here is my Pitch coming down from the Fox at Grizedale
[img] [/img]
And clearing the steep climb up to Carron Crag (only first bit, not all the way...)
[img] [/img]
I desire shiny new metal but there is absolutely nothing wrong with the Pitch. Dual position Lyrik are a revelation Bike climbs and descends perfectly.

no ridden it in any enduros yet, signed up for ukge rd1 at Ae and maybe do haldon or llandegla night race if i can

31.5lbs, -ive just had to stick exo HR2 on the rear as the nobby nic sidewall got shredded by my gnar on some steps last night
