Thats a sweet SL, I love my plain Imp just wish I had the SL so I could set it up to be suitable for some longer trail rides. Anyways have fun with it.
Wow I thought you had a Manitou on there for a second backwards....I was ganna be like um theres something wrong with it. It does kinda look like a Sherman backwards...
Came together pretty well. Sh*tmano BB sucks though cause it only has like half the threads gripping on the driveside for proper guide spacing. Shifting works good but for some reason it skips the 2nd smallest cog in the rear - all the other gears work fine?
Fork is at 95mm minimum (max is 140mm). I rode it when don had it built with a 80mm DJ and it felt perfect. DJ are probably taller than the 95mm pike, so I'll have to play around with it.
I had some spare 1.5" rise El Norte bars from my DH bike, so I'm going to try them out before spending extra money. I tilted them further up than in the photo, but yeah, some nice high SIC bars would be better
Looks like the bar is rotated to far back, the front of the bar usually should be paralell to the angle of the headtube. At least that is where I usually startwhen trying to dial in my bar position.

Planned to bring it to NZ as I am moving there TOMORROW. I bought a nice $150 travel box from aircaddy.com, but now its useless.
It seems Continental will not let me bring two bikes (one bike per person, regardless of whether you pay extra - really stupid cause you can buy extra check baggage but not more than one bike).
Anyhow, this bike is now for sale and has never been ridden, see the Buy and Sell section
