A Yeti has been spotted in my neighborhood. Here's a photo of it:
It's a 2006 Yeti 575 that now replaces the Morewood Shova LT. The Yeti has 5.75" of rear travel and currently has 130mm up front. Once built up, it weighed in at 30.5 lbs. The Shova ran around 37.5 lbs. That'll be a noticable difference on the trails!
FedEx delivered it today. Here's what it looked like right out of the box:
I noticed some frame and wheel damage. The wheel damage and downtube damage was almost certainly caused during shipping. The headtube was likely there before I bought it.
I hope to take it out for it's first ride tomorrow!
