SORRY GUYS, I am new to the forum but not new to Yeti's or MTB by a long shot. Moderator please help delete my original posting. Thought I'd post a shot of my ARC Ti....I was shocked to find the frame on eBay and decided to do a very modern component build. XX1, Carbon DT Fork, Carbon DT wheelset, carbon Prologo saddle, carbon Syntace post, Formula R0 brakes, etc. A few things I'll change as time goes by like the seatpost clamp (color) and cranks, maybe the stem and a few small color changes. It rides like a dream and my carbon 650b isn't getting half the use it once did...I imported the Onza Canis tires from France, Commencal had them on Clearance and I couldn't source them elsewhere. 600g so there is more weight to lose if that was the only goal. 20.7lbs as it sits with pedals and iPhone stem mount. Thanks to all who post their Yeti's, a lot of Fun to see cool bikes from around the world. Attachments:

Thanks for the pic and write up.
Jury still out on the amber walls for me, but can't fault the bike!

I hear you....just put them on since it's a vintage bike (frame at least). They may stay or they may go, time will tell  |

that's a good looking bike, and consider this a thumbs up from me for the tyres too!... what's the geometry on the Ti frame, same as the last of the 26" ARCs?

Thanks for the thumbs up and yes, same geo as the ARC (it is one after all ) and if you look close it even has the more boxed shape top tube like the ARC's. Such cool bikes, there is one for sale on PinkBike (posted last Nov so not sure if still avail). |
