Yup - here's what I got from my DH for my recent birthday. Yes, I am spoiled and I know it. He's a keeper

LOL! You're right - kind of like a hole in the head... In fact, we now need to sell some bikes to make room for this one
. Anyone interested in a pink Yeti???

Not that I need a new bike, but out of curiosity, what size/model? I rode a Yeti 575 on our White Rim Trail tour and loved it.

It's a medium 575. I LOVE this bike, but have now switched to a 29er platform. With the beauty pictured here, I have 2 FS 29ers, plus a SS 29er and the Yeti - something has to go. Originally Posted by indysteel

Poo; the medium is too big for me. I rode a small in Utah and it was darn near perfect. I already have a FS--a Santa Cruz Juliana. The Yet is in a different class though and I think it fits me better. The tour company we used resells its fleet every year. If I REALLY needed a bike, I'd be tempted to buy it from them.

I wish I could buy your Yeti! I'm so poor right now it's not funny.
Enjoy the new bike!!

Awesome gift and awesome-er guy!
Is he going to give you the other half of the fork for the holidays? I've never seen a fork like that.

You are very lucky!
I'm hoping that my husband will get a hint like this for my birthday.
