Built this as a troll bike for the trails here, found out it actually rode well. Used it to get to a lot of the really remote locations I've posted here. It's been up over the sealed headset in the swamp water.....twice.
I'm going to upgrade the fork, rear spring assembly and probably the shifter setup. It's very plush and stops on a dime. The only real complaint I have is that it weighs as much as a Smart Car.

I've done some intermediate and advanced trails on it, no jumps. It will crawl over about anything. If I can get a decent suspension under it I might throw some money at the drivetrain and shift into maximum trollerdrive.
