Here are some pics of my new works red intense M6. I have been riding it for two weeks now and have to say, it is amazing!!!!!! This thing corners like nothing I have ever felt. Sorry for the crappy photo's, they really don't give any justice to the frame or the works red paint. BTW, this is 1 of 2 works red M6's being produced. Tell me what you think.

Here is the bike setup, The parts are different from what is in the photo’s:
Frame: Medium works red intense M6
Shock: Cane creek double barrel with 400x3.5 Ti spring
Fork: 2008 fox 40 Rc2 (being replaced by a 2008 Boxxer World Cup)
Stem: Go ride switch crown
Handlebars: Gravity carbon 28” DH bars
Wheels: Industry nine with Mavic 721’s
Derailleur: 2008 sram XO short cage
Shifter: Sram XO
Saddle: sella italia slr Ti
Seatpost: Thompson masterpiece
Brakes: Formula “The One” 203mm front/rear
Cranks: Gravity Lite MegaEXO 165mm
Pedals: Time Z
Tires: front, 2.7 maxxis minion DHF 3c, rear 2.5 high roller 60a (dual ply wire)
Chain guide: E13 Lg1
Chain: sram 990 hallow pin
Cassette: Shimano dura-ace 11-23
Headset: E13 reducer cups with CC s-2
TOTAL WEIGHT WITHOUT the Boxxer WC, Lighter cassette, lighter saddle and lighter chain is: 38.80lbs. With the new parts I am thinking about 37.9lbs

The lighting was bad when I took them photo's. In the light it is a transparent wine red with the raw works aluminum showing through.

The other Works M6 is at our shop...and holy **** does it look amazing. I have never to this day felt that a bike has looked so good.

Your setup is killer, I wish I owned your bike instead of you.

Don't mean to sink the parade float but I have seen another works Red M6 at the PA shuttle day. Gorgeous bike though, how long did you have to wait for it?

Just posted the specs above. Frame weight was 11.11lbs with Revox and 400lbs steel spring. With the CCDB and 400lbs Ti spring it was 10.5Lbs on the dot.
