First ride on the new tires and brakes will be Sunday.
Just barely under 27 lbs.
I'm pretty happy with this build.
Pulled the stickers off the fork too. I didn't like the red.
honest question, why is this preferable to using an angleset or even a taller crown race?Shock mod to bro my XC bike up a bit. Knocked the HT angle a degree slacker and dropped the BB 10mm.

Now that my park days finally involve more than just sightseeing on the gondola on the way up and glazing my rotors the whole way down, I wanted more adjustability than was available on the old Super Deluxe R which came on the v4 Nomad. Pressed in the requisite mounting hardware and installed a new Super Deluxe Ultimate shock.
