My new ride. I bought this Salsa Bandito here on the forums in November, got it with a coat of primer:crazy2: and an old SID shock for $100. I went to work with some sand paper and paint thinner to get that primer off in hopes of finding the original paint.
Its definitely one of a kind.
I put a Manitou R7 Elite on it. Got an FSA carbon post, BB7's, full X-9, and a new set of XT cranks. Found some Mavic tubeless rims on ebay and it was done.
Thanks to fellow morc'ers for deals on some of the parts.
This link should take you to my photogallery. This is my first attempt at posting pictures and I couldn't quite get it to work.

Thanks to Brian and Matt Kurke for the help. Thanks also go to Erik's in Rochester for some install help.

Let me know what you think!

Its sitting around in the garage. Might try tearing it apart and replacing some seals.
Why?
