I'll get proper pictures on Friday. Just wanted to document it in a clean state. I ordered it last week and transferred all my Nine Race's components to it. I wanted go go easy on my back and decided to go full suspension. I still have the Nine race, but am using it as a spare bike for friends.

I picked it up before work so here it is chilling in the back alley.

SLX M665 crank 36/22
XT rear deraileur, Sram X5 fd, and XTR shifters
Manitou Tower Pro fork 120mm 20mm axle
Specialized Command Post dropper
Nobby Nics
Saint pedals waiting to be installed in my room.

I won't be free to ride it until Friday morning. Work and school. It's probably the shiniest it'll ever be.

I got the first fall out of the way. Got overconfident on a downhill section of San Clemente and foolishly braked on a patch of sand. I went down the hill but a bush stopped my slide. Some scratches, but nothing bad.
