Yeti 575 - Rob Spec
Some of you might have heard I was working on a little project, well here it is in all it's glory.
I know, I know, not another 575! Sorry, couldn't resist.
However, the twist that not many will have at the mo is that front fork - Talas 32 RLC QR15. That dictated Hope Pro II hubs which are built with Mavic 819XM rims as you can see.
Clearly this is more of a play bike than a weight weenie XC weapon. Although that said, it fair ripped up the Dam this arvo! 
P.S. Apologies for sort of stealing the 'pose' from another nice photo seen recently. Imitation best form of flattery and all that.

So whats the verdict on the QR15 axles? Is it as rigid as your beloved lefty?
But yes you sure were setting a cracking pace on it's first outing. Caused me yet more skin loss trying to keep up
Maybe we should stay below 15kmh 
Nice colour I must say. Weight weenie or not, what does it weigh in at?
That bike looks noice!
It must feel quite a bit taller than the Rush...?
Congrats, Hans
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
May all your lines be the right ones...
carbon enduro!
You have got to love the look of a new bike...nothing like it!
Rob will be dribbling over that for some time .....
Will be good to see how "she" handles the fun stuff!
To be announced....Gravity test results!
Welcome to Team Yeti Rob
Well, yeah, we didn't do anything challenging yesterday but happy with the way the front end felt. All good so far.
great looking bike Rob, didnt think i'd see the day when you'd stray from them cannondales.
Ah... no loyalty here, just no Specialized, OK?
I have a Bianchi too don't forget
Are you going to use it sometime and join a scum ride?
Well - the good news is I now have a pass for the new office which lets me into the basement so at least can start commuting again.
(Scottish accent) "...don’t change the subject; just answer the fookin’ question!"
Rob,
Why didn't you buy the new Bainchi Downhill bike. I saw some vision of John-Lee Augustyn attacking some mountain in France and his bike is super light and virtually was unstoppable down the rough shale covered slopes.
Well, it does say:
Now they can add the "Col de la Bonette-Restefond"
on that tire mate. if you want to be a real bike rider you'll have to get some slicks and come out riding with real men!
