My good cousin Cruz has turned out a nice looking sleigh replacement here, a fine looking elf green mean machine.

It has all the nice curves of the nomad without the weirdness.

The swingarm reminds my elves a bit of a GF Fat Possum though.

It looks fine to my colour-blind eyes. I'm surprised they don't show it with a coil shock on it though.

Santa, surely the GF Fat Possum swingarm should remind you of the Bullit one and not the other way round...? After all, the Bullit was around before the Fat Possum was even a glint in Gary Fisher's eye...

And why show it with a Coil shock? Especially seeing as the current crop of long-travel air shocks are (almost) just as good....

Ho ho ho!

Silly me, you are of course right my Welsh freind, you are not such an idiot as your name suggests!

I guess its because I quite like the look of the possum and this new bullit swingarm just reminds me more of it than the old one did.

Anyway, must get back to wrapping Commies present.

Ho ho ho!

Not this version, though. I assume that Santa is referring to the curvy forged bits at the front, that the original Bullit didn't have.

The forgings, yes thats what reminds me of it.

I have just wrapped your present Mike, you must have been a particularly good boy this year (hint: its 'money' shaped!).

Ho ho ho!

Oh right, sorry Mike - Didn't look that closely at the details.. I just thought Santa was on about the swingarm as a whole!
