Chuffed with the way she turned out. Few changes going on already, AXS shifter and different wheelset in works.
Big thanks to MB Cyclery boys, Deity for their kit and Ben Briffett for the pics?

 

[Blinkie]

that is quite a stunning bike now. well done.

Amazing, you’ve done a class job ??

 

[eebit]

Incredible!! Alu for sure looks better than carbon when its done as well as this. One of the best looking bikes I have ever seen, congrats! More photos please!

Love the Specialized decal and headtube decal...really adds class to the naked aluminum look! The Pikes with the same treatment would be the shizzle...

Looks like Stumpy Evo in steroids

Is it just me or does the motor bump look slightly smaller on the alu frame?

Wouldn't surprise me - alloy dissipates heat a lot better so they may not have needed as much space around the battery, but if so I suspect we are talking mm's?

The difference is quite visible by comparing images off the Specialized website. The raw finish makes it look even smaller (as possibly does the lack of bottle cage).

Gorgeous!

on an aside...this was what the test bike that Specialized let into the wild in Santa Cruz looked like about 8 months before it’s official release, except yours is more beautiful and finished. Seriously is a sleeper too. So cool.

Damn, without a doubt those are the smokingest EMTB's I have seen to date, baby I like it raw!

@73Steff what did you do to get the brushed finish? Sandpaper or something else?

@73Steff Damn that is one amazing looking bike! Awesome build. If I keep my levo I might need to try this.
