Need hardtail info please.

[stomp1974]

Hello fellow xs650 lovers. Need a little help here. Starting my first ground up build and plan on hardtailing it. Anybody have an opinion as to who is making the best hardtail in the industry, or what the differences or benifits are between the companys?
Thanks for all your help in advance.

I went with a David Bird looped hardtail from Lowbrow. 6in stretch 1in drop. Love the look. Took a few weeks to get it but well worth the wait.

Thanks for the reply guys. MHanks71, any chance you can shoot a pic of your bike? I'd like to see it.
Thanks

I know a few guys that have used TC Bros (a couple XSs and a CB750). All the work seemed really great, and the guys are pretty cool to deal with. Relativly fast as well. That said, this is all second hand, so TIFWIW.
