Meghann has always talked about how she preferred her old hardtail to her Kona FS. I found a Yeti DJ short frame for $200 and a RS Reba for $125. To round out the build I laced up a pair of I9 j-bends to some Sun RHINO-LITEs and used some of my old parts; X9 shifters, XO rear derailleur, Gamut dual chain guide, Truvativ cranks, Formula brakes, and Thomosn stem and seatpost. Its a sweet bike.
