hey thanks! I've only got one ride on it and then we got a big spring dump of snow. Heading to the desert this weekend to give it a proper go. Shock tune is dialed and I've got a bit of tinkering to do with the fork but so far I'm digging the ZEB. It holds a line super confidently.

I wasn't trying to poke at your decisions at all. I am genuinely amazed at non 3C compound (Maxxterra or maxxgrip ) goes on a bike this calibre.
In BC, you'd wreck immediately on any technical trail.

It must be nice to live at a place where poor tire choice doesn't matter.
Rest of the build is excellent however...

When I travel to wetter climates such as the PNW I run different tires. DHR/Assegai is my go to for aggressive riding but seeing as Americans likely won’t be allowed into Canada this year, I likely won’t be swinging a trip to Bellingham either...and most of my riding will be on dry rocky terrain, this combo rolls well and has enough grip even in the steeps.

strong bike handling skills work better for me than riding the stickiest, burliest casing tire I can find

Funny to have all that purple on the black frame... when they have the purple fade frame... nice build though!!

I’m aware, however I didn’t want the deep space or nerds frame. I specifically wanted the stealth frame. Thanks though!

Nice build. Can you tell me where you got the purple aircap for your Zeb? Been looking for one similar for my Zeb's for years. Thanks.
