Bike porn you say?

Love this, one of best bikes on sale today IMO.

One of the best looking, not so much performing.
The CRC team didn't even ride it last year and preferred riding the M6 in stead. The 951 is known to be too progressive in it's travel.

Picking him up on Sunday. 8kg/17.6lbs of awesome

Whoops, I meant to put best looking, I know it's nowhere near the best

Nomad is about £1800 frame only, not sure on the Sukuma as it has not been released yet.

You could say I like it hard and fast rather than bouncy and windy, yes

first outing with new garmin 500

a hour in between phone calls and work - very impressed with how accurate it is mapping wise. Just along the cycle path to get the legs back to some form of fitness!

Yeah I've looked at them a few times, just not seen a full build like that until now. It has to start with a £3xxx though surely. I like the way the spec list on the top states 1x10 X0 but it's 3x10 XT in the pic!

That is the crappy bike builder thing on the Santa Cruz site. Yeah you are pretty close with £3k+
