I keep meaning to write a bit of a review of the TP, but I keep forgetting to take any decent pictures, and because mine was only ever my bike, and not a fellow Monkey who I could talk shit to about having "their" frame I've been far less motivated. I too was in the middle of a bathroom remodel, had to replace the entire front suspension on my truck, and have a kid on the way, but I didn't cancel my order because I knew it would be a mistake.
Couple key points
- Based on my calibrated right arm, it's a bit heavier than I was expecting
- Despite the weight, it's faster up and down trails than other bikes I've ridden
- Because it's faster, it's more fun, and when I'm having fun I try silly things and that usually results in crashing
- The biggest difference between it and other bikes is on really chunky stuff, it likes big holes and rocks a whole lot
- I can clean many technical climbs I previously could not, despite riding far less due to previously mentioned bathroom remodel, and kid's room remodel
- As Woo mentioned, shit lines up really well, which is good because the DPX2 ate it's bushings in the first month so it's been in and out a few times. I'd advise buying the Push bushings and installing them right off the hop, they last much longer
- It should come with gold stickers, silver is not as good as gold.

Oh yeah. I put an enduro bearing in the 'rear' bolt for the DPX
The best, classiest, most fancy color, ask anyone they'll tell ya, we do fancy here at trump plaza
I was actually trying to find a gold foil/leaf decal material for max bling, but haven't found anything suitable yet. Gold may happen at some point, we are planning on changing the options periodically.
I will throw my frame in the ocean and buy another one if this becomes an available coulorway™

Can confirm 'Woo actually has a GG and that he sometimes rides it.
Looks like I'm in a band called Dark Cabbage Zombies. Kind of meh, but on par with my porn name: Brandy Pilgrim. (First pet, first street name.)

@mtg what is the Official Cheese of Guerilla Gravity? Smoked Gouda? Brie? Gruyere?
Shit day at work, that made me laugh.
Mhmm, Brandy.
Probably Mozzarella. Pizza is a very common sight in the break room.
Soon. Production has started, it just takes a little bit to get them to the point of shipping.
what's that convert to in cheese wheels?So... about 2 weeks?
It would be pretty handy if there was an availability tab on the website that states the lead time for any new order placed.

Will there be Shimano 12 speed builds for 2020?
12 speed XT and XTR are currently in the builders, and I'm pretty sure those remain next year.
Hey @mtg ... not sure if you can or want to answer this question here, but it has been bugging me... is the Trail Pistol the other frame that PinkBike broke in their Field Test? It sounds like whatever it was, it jacked up the rider pretty bad... I have been thrashing my Smash and it continues to love it (so I highly doubt it), but they are being stupid tight-lipped about it. Otherwise, did PinkBike provide any feedback to you guys or tell you how the testing went? I was beyond giddy when I saw the horns headbadge in their first reveal. So excited for ya'll. Keep on killin it.
A few people that were there have said it was the new Slayer from RM. Might be incorrect but thats the grapevine.
That is correct. Your smash is safe to smash Zane.
Then I will continue to do so...
Speaking of which, we need another snowshoe trip. This time one where we can ride the resort.
i'm game. there's still a big gnarly black spot where i smashed my toe.Then I will continue to do so...
we usually have a crew that goes up for opening weekendThen I will continue to do so...
oh boy mud!
Shred on. This is what we know:
- PinkBike is including the company response for broken bikes in the field test, and we have not been asked for a response.
- I know the testing we've done, they're strong.
- Several PB employees hit us up about buying GG frames personally after the field test sessions. Levy was also very stoked on The Smash in his review last year, and at the Revved launch in Texas, he was pretty pumped on the Trail Pistol.
As a side note, they asked for a size 2 Trail Pistol, so I don't think Levy and Kazimer rode it as part of this field test, as they both ride size 3.
