Nice build!
Can't wait to hear what you think.
Andy at leisure lakes is always good with yeti builds.
No worries with the axle!

Andy has been a top bloke. I bought a Whyte 146 originally and it was a bag of doobries so went back in a hissy fit. Andy has looked after me and got me a few demos sorted out. He got me me on a Santa Cruz Tallboy LTc and a Blur LTc - neither of which lit my fire.
The SB66c has been riden up the road yesterday and it flew up, even with me sat on it. Just planning tomorrow nights ride to give it a proper outing.

So three rides in now. First was a gentle 10 miles loop around Ladybower on Tuesday night. This was just a shake down ride to make sure everything was ok.
Yesterday was Sherewood Pines - Kitchener Trail. A gentle ride with friends so just getting use to the bike, getting the suspension sorted. Good ride and seemed quick especially when pointed down
And today was Cannock Chase - Follow the Dog and the Monkey Trail. Rode on my own today to give it a proper ride out. Suspension still not quite right but getting there. What can I say - dear mother of god it's quick. I'm too old and chunky for uphills, but down hills it goes like a rocket. The cliff sections on the Monkey I was held up by a Stumpy Evo until he moved over. On the approach to the Tackeroo sections I was overtaken by a Cove Hustler. He entered Takeroo 30 seconds ahead of me. I overtook him before we got to the bermed section.
I did scare myself a few times it's that quick and it gets airborne really easily.
