So while Devinci unveiled the 650b and we all paid attention to Stevie ripping it up…..Devinci neglected to mention this apparent prototype under Nick Beer in the Air DH. Anyone have info?

I'm hoping it's carbon [HTML_REMOVED] 160mm!

I just realized the pink and red blurred figures in the top right near the Fitz chair is me with my daughter on my back :)

Look again DaveM, the bike Nick is on is not a Troy. The shock is horizontal.

New Dixon maybe? I know it's getting a geometry revision, so maybe the shock placement changed as well.

so with the troy coming and this other proto, I guess I better just set my Dixon on fire?

I'm thinking my Wilson is in serious jeopardy of getting replaced. Devinci is impressing me with these shorter travel bikes, and my Wilson isn't getting ridden enough.

I figured he was making a joke. :lol:

My dixon is super rad with a lyrik on the front, I imagine this troy would be great with a Pike

Saw that last night, I asked Devinci on Twitter, but didn't get a response.

Another view of it, definitely aluminum unless the welds are fake
