for someone trying to sell a bike.....
303's are sick. I love mine. Mine will be up for sale in the fall.
This bike just wants to go faster and faster. It's more fun to ride each time you get on it.

how much?
I was going to buy a 303, but YETI stopped ProDealin them. My cousin races on in Colorado. They say there selling to many bikes. They want to stay a small company.
The bike is ridiculously fast. Ive got 4 races on it and i couldn't be happier. The frame is a little heavy but it pedals and rides so well that you don't notice it. Do Not let anyone tell you that the rails clog up or are sticky in dust or mud, because i have raced mine in some of the muddiest conditions possible and it was butta.
Bike is solid and fun to ride. After 80+ days on mine I can also say maintenance on the rails is a non issue.

Other than that day that your swingarm almost fell off at Bountiful.....
i know someone who has an 888 works on his. i have sat on it and it feels way to plush for me. also that kid is always working on the rails. he will never admit he hates doing it but his brother tells me about his fits when hes alone with his bike in the garage.
scroll up, bpatterson doesntDoes anyone not run a 40 on one of these beasts?
i think the white 888 looks the best...anyways, it seems like a total dream bike, there was a group of about 4 riders that all had them when I was on my trip in Bootleg, the bike seems really plush but very sprintable too. They said that they loved the bike so far, as long as you wiped down the rails after each messy ride it stayed relatively maintenance free. I think it would be a wildly popular bike if Yeti could drop the price a bit, but the price also helps it achieve dream bike status.
true. A small aluminum part that was underdesigned broke within a week. All 303 should have the new piece by now.
To Yeti's credit, I broke my part a Thursday morning, by Friday afternoon I had received a new one (with the newer stronger design)!!!!
you actually never have to touch the rails themselves...you just squirt a little grease into the car and it flushes out all the nasty ness.
What's everyone weight on their rigs?
i still want to know why mad haderer has 3 of them!?!?...were u high and thought u should buy 3 cause of the name?
US world cup team member/Yetti sponsored rider.......
Love it. After upgrading wheelset, saddle, and Ti-Spring in the rear and Ti-Springs in the fork. It is at 44.2lbs.
riding and testing the bike for 3 consecutive years...just havent sold off any old ones yet.
I had 3 Specialized Big Hits before getting an M1. Now I have 5 bikes. Anyone want to buy 3?....LOL
love the ride...whats it like with the travis and revox?? do they work as well togther as i can imagen...?Nope.
I don't know about him, but the ONLY people here in aus that run manitou both ends are those that are sponsored by them and are therefore forced to run them.
And even those guys will be running a borrowed boxxer/888 every third race after the travis blows up and awaits replacement.

I have been riding the 2007 Yeti 303 for about a month now. The Geo. is spot on, rear ward axle path, and just feel right when your sitting on it.
I have ridden it in the mud a few times and havent noticed any grinding in the rails at all, smooth as when I got it. There are guards that clear anything from going into the cars. After a wet ride or after riding it for a few weeks in the dry you just shoot some grease into the grease port cleaning the bearings and keeping it smooth, really very easy.
Its alittle heavier than some dh frames, but the weight is centered low in the frame keeping it nimble and cornering great. People that I let parking lot test it say theres no way its 43.50lbs. By race season it will be around 42-42.50lbs. which is real good with the sturdy built I have on it. As long as you check the bike as you would any other bike you wont have any problems. I am stoked on it and can't wait for race season to start. I will try and get pics later.

Flat out - what lighter parts are you running than cmb2874? Or are you just using a friendlier scale? 
Nah my scale is dead on haha. Now the bike is 43.49 but I can make it low-mid 42's with ti spring, lighter brakes, truvativ oct cranks, Gamut P30, 36t ring, etc... just overall the parts are lighter check it out...Flat out - what lighter parts are you running than cmb2874?

Are the factory riders riding the team colors like the 06's or are they going to run the silver 07's ?
we are all running the silvers as far as i know...
I've got mine sitting at 44.9 lbs but the way this bike rides, you don't notice it being a bit on the heavy side. i couldn't be happier with the way this bike rides.
Pics looking good!
