Meta 5.5 'Factory' build


This is a nice light and very fast build using a Meta 5.5 Carbon 'Factory' frame kit. The 'Factory' comes with a FOX Float RP23 XV shock,a FOX Float 150RLC fork, Easton EC90 bars and post and Raceface stem.
The owner wanted a fast XC Marthon/Trail bike, so I built it up with a full XTR groupo, Gore Ride-on cables and XT wheels. He couldn't manage to fit in to his budget the cost of a hand built wheel set and the XT wheels are 15QR compatible out of the box, ball park weight and so far have held up very well. This bike weighs 26lbs on the noise with pedals. Very respectable for a 140/150mm travel bike. Super fast I'm told.
