Thanks - super stoked with it!
Cheers man. They seem like a fun bike to ride. Just need to find 7000 in spare change
You will always read horror stories on the net. I've read plenty if bad experiences of LEVs too so I wouldn't use them to base your decision. The reason I went for the Reverb (other than the $200+ saving) is that it's easy to get parts for them, Wiggle won't leave you out in the cold warranty wise and prob have the best Warranty dealing for Aus customers and the Reverb has a better reputation in the UK mud.
Haha - it's important to have a trail dog that matches your bike eh.
I'm very interested in the Tmars. Looks pretty good but as Madstace points out to me, the clamp for the seat rails looks like it might be a bit flimsy. I'm a heavy boy at 115kg, do you think it would hold me up?
Fork & frame, crank and saddle, shifter.....probably about it. Would like a new crank......
Dear god, so many awesome bikes in this thread. Have just looked through 8 months worth of posts - couldn't stop clicking
I see no Devinci's posted recently however (if at all?), so let me add mine into the mix.
Only a couple of rides old but you can't wipe the smile off my face. Couldn't be happier.
Still debating a dropper post... but happy without!

Nice.Apologies for the poor quality mobile phone camera photograph.
I'll post up a better pic if I ever bother to take one.

Probably people who own DSLRs but are too lazy to go grab it
Haha, spot on. Actually my DSLR has developed a spot on the pics. Anyone recommend someone in outer east Melbourne for servicing/cleaning camera/lenses.Probably people who own DSLRs but are too lazy to go grab it
Thats probably due to some dust on the sensor. Just take the lens off, trigger the shutter so that it stays open and use an air blower(camera specific) to blast any dust off the sensor. I usually hold the camera with the sensor facing downwards so the dust will just fall out when air blasted!
Ah...bit OT, but this didn't sit right with me so I checked with the snap-happy better half. She's suggesting no. Depending on camera, there should be a sensor cleaning function in the menu, which is more thorough than the quick one that usually runs when you power the camera off. If that doesn't do it, just get it serviced.Thats probably due to some dust on the sensor.

A few observations from someone who has the same machine.
Cheers, being a camera numpty I think I'll just get it serviced anyway. I presume they can check everything and lenses for correct operation and cleanliness.
