Thanks, Dan! I’m definitely loving it.
Ergon grips are fantastic, right!?

I’m actually not running a 29+ Yari. I’m running a 2017 Yari RC Boost 29 Solo Air.

Had to get a shim for the Lev.
That dropper was something I had laying around
from an HD3 I used to have.

Good luck with your build!

Love the build! ... right down to the ergon grips.

I'm also building up a custom 2017 Honzo (large) so I was hoping to get some advice from you.

Are you running the Yari 29+ fork? From what I've read it can take a 3 inch tyre and seems to be the only Yari with boost spacing available in a 29,

As for the dropper, did you get a ks lev in 34.9 or did you have to get a shim? I thought you could only get a reverb in a 34.9 so if there is a cheaper alternative out there it'd be good to know.

Cheers

Dan
