BigJD, I think you'll find that the SS will will allow effort less hill climbs that will see you at the summit before the common rider that has all that non essential weight and power sapping rubbish hanging off the back of the frame. That's my 10 cents!!!

The creak, as you know originates from the cranks, its not frame related. Is that all the mud you can sling at the Yeti....

Yeti ASR all the way. Have had mine now for 2 years and couldn't think of anything else at this stage that I would rather be riding, other than the ARC. I thought the 575 was the business, it was quick, but the ASR-SL just accelerates out of corners and is just a blast to ride. As far as the...

I'm obviously going on my own then???????
