Apparently the bike we've all been amazed by is being put into production in 09..

Then quote your source, rather than ripping it off.

you wont be going very fast on that, you'll have to sit down the whole time - no pedals.  ;D but on a serious not, i lke how theyve taken into consideration little things such as the rear disc guard. i love the colour scheme, goes perfectly with the new 09 saint components. it does look quite short and tall though, maybe its just the photo. :-\

So you take into account the colour scheme rather than the design?

Are you just getting at the amount of companies offering raw as a colour option?

i like that they have added the carbon shock guard.

when i saw danny harts in MBUK i thought the shock would get smashed by rocks and/or caked in c**p

I take it there's a lot of licensing from Giant there? (surely there must be an entire thread talking about this somewhere??)

Just looks like a slimmed down Glory, very nice
