Clockwise, it flows better in that direction IMO. The techy river trail section rides a lot nicer in that direction too.

Sounds good. Would be interested to hear your thoughts after a bit more time on the bike. Would it be good for the longer endurance events, 100k marathons, 6 hour, 24 hours....? I’m guessing for the downs would be great but will you lose some time on the flats/climbs compared to a XC rig?

Yes probably, even if you bought the AXS Spur at $15,500, its still a 11.2kg bike.
My full sus Trek 9.9SL XC race bike before I added a dropper, has been 9.8kg depend on tyre choice.
Big difference in comfort of them with the Trek having a twitchy 70°HA and the Spur with relaxed 66°.
Will post my ponderings here after a few more rides.

Ordered a few bits yesterday.
9-50t eThirteen Helix R cassette
DT 240 hubs
I have emailed a German manufacturer called 77Designz, they do a very light, 1 piece 'enduro' stem. Their 35mm stem weighs 69g and the 45mm weighs 84g. The reason for the email is fitting it to the OneUp bar, they failed to fit it to the 35mmx35mm as per below video but I have a 20mm rise OneUp so it may fit, asking the question anyway. There are comments below the video that it doesn't fit, then others that said it went on with no issues, just need to German translate.
Price is 99euros but when Australia is selected for shipping, it drops 17euros off the price and adds 3euros postage. So its $139 which is in the ballpark of regular stem prices.

Its an awesome price for well made stem, I dont know if I would use one on my Highlander but for XC/Trail, it will do the job beautifully.
Just need to work out why 50% of people can fit it to a OneUp 20mm riser and 50% cant.

Down on the left!
Maybe the other 50% Are more willing to use brute force and ignorance than the other 50%? That or a hammer.

Those are the 50% with the scored bars. They advise against using a screwdriver to pry open the clamp gap but I'm sure it happens.

Stunning bike, congratulations! This is on my list if my endless supply of Yeti's ever dries up.
Check out the Newmen 69g 50mm stem if you are going full weight weenie.

I reckon you could go sub 11kg without loosing any capability.

Those lightweight stems that wrap around are nice but are a pain for bar install. I had a Ritchey 260 where you had to slide the bar through. Was a delicate operation as you did not want to score the bar.
Having said that the 77 Designz stem is very nice. Have you considered their bar/stem combo so you know it will work?

Yes. Just a batch. Recall under way. Current stems not affected from their gram page.Isn't this the one that had a recall because it was breaking? Maybe just a batch of them...googling....

The 77 stem was inspired by the Intend stem:

But is cheaper.

Just bought the OneUp carbon from a LBS here in Adelaide
they had stock in their display case and OneUp is completely out of stock... $40 over online price.Surely you could just tape it then remove the tape once close to in position?

Das Nein....
77designz existed years before intend were on the scene.
77designz was founded in 2007 by three friends in Germany, they designed/built a DH bike frame called the 'Flatout' of which their were a few iterations up until 2011.
Around 2012/13 77designz stopped making frames and focused solely on the components side of things.
Now 77designz has resumed frame making with it's latest venture/brand 'KAVENZ' bikes and produce the VHP 16

Yes, 77 was established first but the design style of the stem was done by Intend first according to the owner on his ‘gram page. The stem was to be a two piece design but cost to make was too high so ended up a one piece.Das Nein....

Ordered these rims, same semi stealth decals (we are brand ambassadors) so need to keep the Nextie decals and shape going, got 7 x 'N' around the wheels, got the AM build with 27mm internal width. Could have gone for the 30mm internal Ultralights but they have a 2.5mm wall thickness, the ones I have picked have 2.8mm which is only a little short from the 3mm enduro/downhill builds.
Rims will weigh 370g each.
The DT full wheel build with 28h, Competition 2/1.8/2 spokes, DT240's and brass nipples will come in at 1507g... a full fucking 780g lighter than the standard factory pov-pack wheels.
