Insanely light for a 6" bike. Sweet. What rims did you go with? What did the wheel build come in at? Would love to see a build list.

-Shane
I'll try and get the build list posted in my spare time. Pretty simple really. Sram xx1, RF Next cinch carbon crank, I9 wheels w/ LB 35 x 30 carbon rims, Ra Ra tires, Pike Fork, Formula RO brakes, Answer carbon bars, Ritchey carbon stem, Spec. Blacklite post
 
Frame arrived at dealer today. Medium Black w Inline, and Ibis seatpost collar (no maxle or headset included in this weight): 5.95 pounds. Hope to get the frame and bike built up in the next few weeks. Dog gone holiday season activities are a new bike building buzz kill. Will post pics and final specs when she's done.
 
Was checking out a medium demo bike my LBS just built up this weekend, had no pedals, Pike and a fox shock which he will be replacing with a DB-Inline it was a hair under 27 pounds.
 
Crappy pictures but the build is already done!!! Med. Frame arrived this morning. Gonna spend all day Thursday or Friday driving out and back to pick her up. 27.15lbs with some heavier platform pedals; xx1; Pike set at 160 for now; and wheels with a burlier/knobbier winter setup (for me anyhow) 2.35 3C DHF font; 2.35 3C Exo DHRII rear. I'll follow-up with better pics, final specs and weight using my scale later in the week. Seat post will be way, way lower once I adjust for me.

 
Guess what showed up today at Bikeco for me



Unfortunately it probably won't be built before Christmas. Big props to Kara, Nate and Joe for always taking great care of me. Can't recommend them highly enough.

JHC...I have to wait until January for both a new season of Downton Abbey to start AND A SALESPUNK bike review. WTF!!!!:madmax:;)
 
For all of you who seem to be waiting perpetually for delivery...

I had an order in with competitive cyclist that I placed on the release date (Nov 17) they told me that I might get it in January (but had no confirmed date).

Last Friday I emailed ProBikeSupply based on the build they had posted in another forum - they had what I wanted in-stock, built it the next day (Monday) - shipped it to me and it was delivered today (Tuesday).

Seems like some of the LBS / Distributors have the HD3's in stock and others on waiting in line - obviously your mileage may vary..
 
For what its worth, my custom build from CC just shipped today... Blue, size large... Only thing screwed up is the fork, wanted a pike 160 rct3 SA but got a 160/130mm DPA, such is life.

Ordered mine from CC on Nov 17th...med black. Initially told Dec 15, moved to Dec 17, finally to January 4th. Canceled and had build done "locally", within my State, anyhow. Actually made it easier in the end as I had all my parts to build it up myself. Just shipped it all to them and bike was done day frame arrived. Now need to go pick it up on Thursday. Can't wait to get her on the trails ASAP.

ETA: CC is great, don't get me wrong. It's just that I'm on vacation for the next three weeks. Getting the bike now vs. 2nd or 3rd week in January was a huge difference for me. I don't often have this much free time to ride.

Sadly, leave on vacation tomorrow afternoon... Delivered to my office and I know exactly where I'm stopping at midnight on the way home from the airport on the 27th ;-)
 
This is the part where everyone hates me. I ordered mine less than two weeks ago and Bikeco hooked me up immediately. Bike is here and ready to go but unfortunately I am out of town until Christmas and I still need to pick some stuff up.

Some people probably started hating you...like... 2 or 3 bikes back!

JUST KIDDING, JUST KIDDING! :)

Edited to emphasize...Just kidding... All respect, No Hate!
