Hello to everyone,
This is my first post , I'm Themis from Piraeus, Greece and this is my beloved Meta 4 v.i.p. ....

It is a 2006 frame i got last year (new as a stock item from previous dealer) and started building it, now it is almost done
bike Setup:
Meta 4 v.i.p. Large
Fox RP3 rear shock
Rock Shox REBA RLT 120mm (2010)/remote lockout
Shimano XT 3x9 drivetrain (2010-11) & shifters
Shimano XT Trail SPD pedals PD-785 (just installed,not shown in picture)
Hope Tech X2 Brakes /180 front ice tech rotor/160 rear ice tech rotor/Hope sintered pads
DT-Swiss 240's Hubs /DT-Swiss db spokes on MAVIC XM717 rims
Thomson elite seatpost
KCNC S Wing stem (Soon to be replaced with an Thoson Elite X4 Stem)
KCNC Rampant rise bars
Cane Creek S8 headset
Specialized body geometry Saddle
Panaracer Fire XC Pro 2.1 tires
I'm really happy the way it rides,climbs and descents, used to ride XC/Hardtail but now i think i have found what I've been missing... :-)
The only thing i want to change is the Stem with a Thomson elite X4
