The Yeti race trailer decided to make a pit stop in SLC. Not totally planned, their truck made the decision for them. Well, lucky for us, they decided to hang out at the shop while they got it sorted out, and we got to check out Jared Graves' 2011 DH bike.

Fresh out of the race trailer, not even dust on the tires yet. . .



Of course kitted with Fox Suspension, and Saint bits. . .



Team Issue paint and graphics. . .















Factory Series sticker on the RC4, and the 40





Shock engraved with "Yeti 11". . .



Nice finishing touches. . .



Weight without pedals is 41 lbs 14 oz. I'm sure before the first WC round there will be some additional changes, ti spring etc.

For some reason they were not stoked with our idea to head up and ride this guy in the snow and mud here right now. So no ride report. Dry

Gotta have this frame? We have one left in a large - buy it up! Yeti 303 WC 25th Anniversary Edition

soooooooo niceeeeeee. The things i would do to ride that... im surprised by the weight though, it does seem a little heavy. Im pretty sure i saw some pics of Greg Minnaar's 2011 v10c and it was weighed in at 35 pounds.

The weight must be a typo. I read on ridemonkey that you can't win a race on a bike that weighs more than 40 pounds. Also, yeah, that bike is sick.

More like "TURDROBOT" and you are right. It is impossible to win a race on a bike that is over 39.46 pounds. FACT
