So, I've been posting a few questions about Bullits lately. Well, mine came in yesterday. Just a quick pic before I head into work to begin the build process!

Happy Friday!

- Oh and sorry for the sort blurry pic, but it kinda looks like it glows!

Nice frame.

I love porn. Now you have to go abuse it and treat it like it owes you for the roof over its head. I hope it has 'teh touche'.

What orange is that? My buddy just got an orange bullit and it looks different.

I miss my Bullit

I never rode it when it was Orange Kiss (metal flake) though. Someone on RM has it now, I have no idea who though.

 

[Spec8in561]

I liked mine..but don't miss it..

Thanks for all the positive words! It was fun bike to build. It's actually my 2nd Bullit. My first long-travel bike was a Bullit; orange with a black swing arm! It's funny how I ended up getting another one: must be something right with the design!

The build:

Mavic De Max wheels
Minion DHR tires - tubeless
Hayes brakes with GRC levers
FSA headset, bars, stem, and V-Drive Xtreme cranks
E-13 guide
XT shifter(s)
Deore rear der (will put XT or go to Sram - Probably Sram)
Thomson post
WTB SST98 saddle
Ancient 6" Boxxer to be replaced with a Slider +
Floating brake kit coming soon too

Total weight right now: 39lbs. I hope to get it to 38 with some wise upgrades.

Off to the trails tomorrow to start figuring out the shock!

Damn i had to put on my Oakley Half jacket with firelenses.. to see the first pictures. ..Further on it is a very nice build. But not in this colour. I will defenitly go for a rootbeer or a bleuish color.

Don;t know what is was called.
