Some assembly required!
Nearly all the bits for a new build. I'm new(ish) to mtb so hope it works out well. I'd say it's at the edge of XC, probably down country, 120/120 sus. I was considering paint for the frame but the GF said the black is more bad ass. It's cheaper, lighter, and I don't have to worry about nicking the paint, so I went with it. Obviously will be mostly black but red accents, getting red stickers for the RS parts.
