Why the hate? The frame might be a bit old dated, same for using a dc on a ht but it's still a mint looking bike. I like it.

Banshee Legend (L)
Saint drivetrain
Formula Ones
Burgtec 60mm stem and rear hub
Chromag bars
Straightline pedals

Don't know what it weighs, don't care, it holds up to the rocky terrain I have to deal with.

That looks seriously awesome though I'd lower the boxxers a bit. They seem a bit high.
I put in the boxxer out of the box. didn't change the lowers. it is already quite low with that integrated headset.
- awesome bike what the frame/complete weigh in at?
I've no exact scales, but i tried it with my bathroom scales and the result was 16,7-16,8 kg (about 37).

I'll change the saint cranks (which a friend borrowed me) and put on a slx, which saves another 150g and the stem (which is also heavy and just borrowed) i'going to swap. I think I'll loose another 0.65 pound (300g)

That's an awesome legend. What wheels are those? Also you must be quite tall if you need a 60mm stem or is the L really not that super long?

The rims are Funn Descenders, basically Sun MTX's with heavy paint - but pretty cheap - if I wreck them I'll get something lighter as they are morbidly obese but for now they'll do.
I'm 6'4" with shortish legs for my height, the current setup fits me perfectly with the Chromag OSX 31" bars.

Seriously? They Are 8*x4* vs, 8*x5*. I couldn't tell the difference.
Come on man, this is "AngleMonkey."

For whatever reason, the Atlas bars just feel a little flatter, no matter where I roll them. The Chromags feel more natural, like I'm not tweaking my wrists. I did the fake extension test with my grips too...
