One of the mechanics here has just finished a restoration on his SB6 including a custom spray in a one-off shade of purple.
The bike is a 2017 SB6, fitted with Fox 36, Transfer and X2 shock. The shock was a factory but converted to the black stanchion to suit the colour scheme of the bike, the main focus was to let the paint to do all the talking and thought Kashima would clash (Although the stem spacer just adds a subtle amount so that the switch infinity didn't feel left out).
The drivetrain is a Shimano XT/XTR mix with the brakes being XTR and rolling on solid Hope Fortus 30 wheels.
