2021 Bikes That Make Your Shorts Tighter.
That’s not mine. I ordered (back when I was employed) the Rocky Instinct 90. Full XTR, carbon wheels, carbon cranks, dentist spec’. It’s slated for delivery early June (ish).
I contract my self to a local shop and build their new bikes, custom builds, and lace custom wheels at my home shop. That way his mechanics/staff can concentrate on repairs and sales.
Rocky bikes just started arriving, today I built that Instinct Carbon 70 Coil, an Instinct C50, an Altitude A30, and just brought home an Instinct C70 to build tonight/morning.

Some nice builds in here. The kona xc bike has some sweet lines. Not often i'd say that about an xc bike.
Cool santa cruz mullet bike. Red so its definitely fast
And that coil front and rear Rocky has to be fun. Great bike to add coil too. Still a reasonable weight

The Rocky Instinct 70 came in at 1/2lb lighter than the Instinct 70 Coil. 31,8oz (Size Large. Real weight with pedals, no tubes, 4oz sealant.)
This C70 was full XT, including cranks, Fox 36 Fit4 Perf Elite, and DPX2 Perf Elite.
All my builds have been Purple, can’t wait to build a “mint” one. Like what I ordered.
Yes this is a different bike.

If only I had $13,000 to burn. If you have 5 minutes to waste, check out the video.

Finally got the Deviate Highlander frame I was waiting on, and last night I swapped everything over from the Forbidden. I've got the Highlander currently setup as 150mm front and 140mm rear; it'll be interesting to see how the two bikes compare. As soon as the snow melts and I can get out for a few rides, I'll report back.

If I could buy any bike right now, the Highlander would probably be it (though maybe in the 150 configuration, I'm not sure). It is just lovely and the company seems great. I had interviewed for a job in Aberdeen and told myself I'd selflessly repay the country by getting a Highlander. Instead I ended up in desert NV so about the opposite of Scotland (but probably a better position to get a Highlander financially speaking).
I will be really eager to hear a ride report, particularly how it handles loose, rocky, chunky stuff that's steep, but often tight rather than really fast.

Will definitely let you know... although we don't have anything in Colorado that's nearly as dry and loose as Nevada!
I'm hoping the Highlander is a slightly more rowdy version of the Druid. I really liked that bike once I got it dialed, and I have high expectations for this one because of it.

Maybe i missed it. Curious on why the change after you had the druid dialed? I hear nothing but good things on both. A friend has the new norco range on order and that looks to be similarly sweet

I'm working with Deviate as a partner to Chasing Epic (we're carrying their bikes as part of our demo fleet, along with Revel and GG), and in other smaller capacities as well. Unfortunately Forbidden couldn't commit this year due to having no available supply.
Otherwise, I'd be riding the Druid all season- it was SO good. I'm hoping that transfers to the Deviate, based on friends' feedback, I think it will.

Oh ok. Copy that. See a few youtubers w the deviate that seem a little extra enthused with their bike. Nice line up for the fleet too

I'm not in the market for a 145mm travel bike, but if this were 120ish I'd be putting the Ripley on the market....
