So sick. Back when I watched all the Yeti DH team videos at sick USA tracks. Maybe one day we'll see a Yeti DH team again!

Beautiful build! When I first started riding and racing DH, I dreamed of owning a 303DH. I'd still love to own one. Do you currently ride it? Or is it just a garage queen? Just asking cause the reach looks super short.  If you happen to know the reach numbers or the wheelbase, please let us know.

A friend of mine had one of these built up very similarly.  In an attempt to lower the weight he sourced Ti bolts for almost all the frame and fork hardware.  It was something like 40+ bolts.  That bike had a crazy number of bolts to keep track of.

The rear shock is wrong. In the 2008 the wc team rides a dhx 5.0. more. In this bike you will see an Rc4, they rides rc4's in 2009 wc, 2008 was a prototype development for the rc4, they used more the dhx 5.0. In the bike specs I see a Dhx 5.0 but in pictures this bike has an rc4..

The only thing cooler than this is the raw aluminum team frames that Gwin and Blenki were on in 2009

Pretty sure, really special and unique the 09 raw alu team issue wc frame and these are the rarest 303dh. And I really grateful to have on of them team issue from the wc. the 2of3! 1. Gwin, 2.Blenkinsop, 3. Graves. Gwin kept his complete bike, Graves frame is in the yeti headquarters on display in Colorado. Sex on wheels for sure! Still the best looking 303dh ever is the 09 team issue.

This is just a replica team build, not ex team bike or frame in my opinion. Yeti kept many team bikes and frames what they are used in the wc season and they are hanging on the yeti like "wall hanger "or in the headquarters on display, only wc team or prototype frames or bikes, many frames kept yeti.
