The time has finally come. I'm leaving in about an hour to pick up my 575. To those of you who are tired of all my questions about this part vs that part or features/specs etc, you can now breathe easy.

Some would refer to it as "cheaping out", while others might refer to it as "eliminating unnecessary expenses to stay competitive in an extremely competitive market" :D

That head badge was a thing of beauty. It should never have been replaced with paint, it was part of the yeti legend.

That makes me a sad panda.:(

The Yetis of old had stikcers for head badges or at least my 1993 PROFRO had a sticker. The new DH9s still come with the Aluminum head badge.

Well, I've got it, everything is together, and I'm working on getting everything dialed in. I have to adjust the brake calipers just a bit, but other than that, it's ready to ride.

I'll start a new thread tomorrow with updated pics and some highlights from the build. I just don't have time right now.
