Nom nom nom. That is a kick-ass downhill bike. 26″ real wheel with 24″ up front.
203mm front rotor and what look like Hope calipers front and back (?) – last years Fox RC2 forks (8″ travel) ..and obviously the in-frame gearbox. Hawt.

Do want!

This guy at my school had a $7,000 +/- bike made by hellsworth. He said that he bought it after a settlement.

The rear wheel has a floating shock absorbing setup. Yes, it does have disk brakes front and rear. I would also love to find the name or Company.

@ Special Kail: on the seat! hmm. my eyes fail, I’ve been reading your handle as Special Kali…
No, not shaft driven, can see chain on far side. Looks tough enough for the rubble and potholes they call paved roads around here.
