Rock Shox Totem coil forks, Fox DHX 5 shock, Hope Moto V2 brakes with vented floating rotors, Hope front hub, Burgtec rear hub, Mavic EX823 UST rims, Middleburn RS7 cranks, Race Face Signature DH BB, MRP chain guide, XTR shifter + rear mech, XT cassette, Race Face Atlas FR bars (not pictured), SDG I-beam saddle + seatpost, NC-17 Toro stem, Burgtec Penthouse MKII pedals (Atomlab Trailkings in photo), Maxxis UST tyres (varying model depending on conditions - High Roller/Minion/Swamp Thing). Weighs just under 40 lbs.
Just fitted some Slacker dropouts from Powell Precision (company of a guy from Intense), which slacken the head angle by 1 degree, drop the BB by half an inch, and extend the wheelbase by 1/4". Small differences but they're supposed to make a huge difference.

beast. not a fan of totems though, blew a pair of 07's in morzine.

These coils have been faultless. I love the fact that with the 1.5" steerer they're as stiff as triple crowns and you can get round super tight switchbacks with a bit less hassle.

QTip replied... on 28 January 2010
I've been absolutely blown away by the Totems. They are super smooth and never seem to struggle with anything.

damn that is nice! Loving the all black. I bet that blasts down UK downhill tracks?
I need to dig out my bullet cap valves, standard MBUK freebies!
chazz95 replied... on 27 December 2009
I got them to but then i lost them lol!!
QTip replied... on 23 December 2009
It is an awesome UK DH bike, holds its own in the Alps too - the limitation is definitely the rider rather than the bike! I actually paid for the valve caps - a bit naff but I couldn't resist a bit of pointless bling. Should really ditch them and the presta to schraeder valve adaptors and just stick some plastic presta valve caps on if I was being a real weight saving purist!!!!! Might only save a couple of grams but it is rotating unsuspended weight after all!!!! Or maybe I could just eat a few less pies and make 1000 times more difference!

Because it's mine and is the best bike I've ever ridden. Super plush suspension and pedals reasonably well for an 8" travel bike. Looks even better in real life. Only things I'm thinking about changing are a lighter chain device and possibly changing the 1.5" steerer and crown assembly for a 1.125" one so that I can use some K-19 headset cups to slacken the head angle, lower the bottom bracket and extend the wheelbase - would make it more downhill specific as am doing more DH and less north shore type stuff these days.

Prefer the looks of these to the new ones, look's well tough, but I do prefer the way the new one rides! Still a 10 though mate, most bikes with the Intense name are!
