Well you might as well stick in your 4.2"er in here (unless maybe we could use a specific 4.2 inch thread)
And remember to keep the bikes as mid weight as possible.
Extra points for.......
4.2" bikes with 2 ply DH casings

Steel cranks with xc spd's

Sofa's with carbon seatpoasts

150x 12 rear hubs and 24 spokes

Carbon frames with coil shocks

If I had a pic of it with my 2.35" high rollers on it, it would have qualified for that am/fr thread, but it's an xc bike

crossmax xl/st
normal lx/xt drivetrain
now has 31.8 evolve stem and ea70 bars
turbine isis cranks
deus seatpost
irc serac xc ust pictured
juicy 7s

i think it weights 31 or 32lbs - good and strong for my 200lb xcing ass
