Steve B,

Can you put up the spec list when you have a free minute or two and your asking price?
Thank you,
Eric

I'm riding a short Meta 4x and that feels pretty good to me, so I reckon the S/M Mini DH will be the one I'm looking for. Shame as those are definitely my fav colours as well!

If anyone else has the same frame in S/M for sale then please let me know...

Have u actually sat on both the frames mate and compared them? when i got my bike i was searching high and low for the small/medium and it took me ages to get it,and once i got it i put it alongside my mates large/xL bike and we took like 15mins to even find the differences in the frames,the only difference we could find was the bit of the seat tube above the whole for the shock to pass through(and even this was a tiny diff,we are talking less than 1inch) ans the top tube was meant to be longer but it doesnt look it when they are side by side or when you are on the bike.
So dont completely right off the option of steves bike just because of that man,i honestly reckon you wouldnt notice the difference when on the trails.

yeah another thing to note the '07 and '08 geometry is different.. i forget exactly where, but i remember looking at the S/M '07 was very close the L/XL '08..

Geometry and sizing on the Mini DH, or Supreme 6 as it was originally known has been the same for 05, 06, 07 & 08.

Spec of mine is roughly as follows...

07 Supreme Mini DH. Built up around Nov 07.
DHX5 air shock
08 Fox TALAS 36 RC2 forks. Installed about Dec'ish 08.
Halo Freedom rims in white
XT hubs
DT Swiss Comp spokes in black
Thompson X4 stem
Roox high rider bar
XT shifters
XT shadow rear mech
Deore front mech
07 XT brakes with Hel hoses  to 203 XTR rotors
Odi lockon grips
Cane Creek sealed headset
Custom I Beam Sc0per seatpost and saddle
Race Face Atlas Cranks with 22/32 Race Rings
Gamut bashguard
E13 DRS device
XTR chain
XT 11/32 cassette
XTR gear cables
Intense Edge DC Lite tyres
Conti tubes
 Thinks that's it.

New it'd cost about £3400, I guess I'd be looking around the £2k mark.

Cyraguard. A modern version of the crud catcher, really really good, should be available from most decent bike shops. I've got them for a tenner I think.

yeah i think i saw them down at the hub bike shop at glentress the other week,so you reckon they perform better than the crud catcher? do you have them in stock in white? how well do they sit on the supreme downtube,nice and steady?

I'm sure we have some in white, they sit fine, one of the few that do. I can send one with the bearings if you want.
