Newest Bikes at the top!
Steves new ARC, built with quality parts from Rockshox, Shimano XT, Thomson, Maxxis & Hope. Note the new 2010 rear end with no brake bosses!
this is my 2007 ARC model of Yeti. The components are:
Alvaro.
I just finished building this 2008 ARC and thought you might like a photo. I did not go crazy on this and tried to use mid-line parts to keep the cost reasonable. SLX shifters and derailleurs, XT crank and rear cassette, Avid 7 brakes and Ti levers, XTR hubs attached to low end Mavic rims (used--but are dead straight--I'll upgrade them later), Recon Race fork and FSA carbon post. I did splurge on King bearings and also found an old NOS set of Ringle bars and Yeti grips. Came in at 24.5 pounds, not bad for using mid-line parts and super old school pedals! Thanks for the great site, please post any old ARC tests you might find (as I cannot find them anywhere). Rock on! Billy Jolt- Calif. USA
ARC, Easton Carbon bars, post, stem, Sram XO drivetrain, XT cranks, Mavic CrossMax, Specialized Captains(Stan's), Time pedals
I have been part of the Yeti tribe for about 15 years now and have enjoyed your site for much of that time.
Cheers- Tom J (Bromley, UK)
She is now finished with the following parts, YETI ARC 2008 SIZE SMALL, FORKS FOX RCL 100, STEM THOMSON ELITE X4, BARS RITCHEY WCS, BRAKES AVID SL V BRAKES
WITH NOKON CABLES , SEAT POST THOMSON ELITE , SADDLE FLITE TITANIUM , GROUPSET SHIMANO XT / XT SHADOW , RIMS RITCHEY ROCK COMP, TYRES OLD SCHOOL PANARACER MAGIC. I have stuck with the V brakes, as they are so powerful combined with the Nokon cables, they are as sharp as any disc brake I have ever used.
Here are three pics of my A.R.C. It's a very early 1992 frame, number is A158. It took me three years to find all the parts, but it was well worth the wait. It's fitted with 3-D violet components from the early 90s era - Ringle and Grafton.
My current Yeti ARC which was one of the very last U.S made Easton tubed ARC's. Here's the spec:-
I've been saving for this bike for ages and I'm so happy with the way it has turned out! When I stopped mountain bike racing and turned to the dark side Yetis where the ones to have. So when I decided that I was going to have a crack at XC racing I had to have one!!! I just hope that my skill levels haven't left me for good and that they can keep up with my roadie legs!! Can't wait to get racing! Ben- in Wiltshire
An update to Andrea's last pictures
I bought this 1998 Yeti ARC at the Boulder Recycler (a high-end consignment shop) in Boulder, CO back in the summer of 2001. It was sitting right next to a black ARC prototype that
just had one "Easton" decal on its downtube - as you can imagine, both bikes caught my eye right away. Supposedly, John Tomac (Parker?) had dropped them off a couple days earlier.
While I could only afford this Yeti at the time, I still regret not buying that Easton prototype as well... oh well, hindsight is 20/20. After 3 years of riding in Jackson Hole, WY and the last 4 years in storage, I am about to restore the ARC to top-notch condition. Before I do so, I wanted to send along a couple pics for you and the rest of the Yeti fans before restoration. Here it is with the Yellow Judy SL, Yellow Selle Italia Ti, Syncros Seatpost, Syncros Stem, Titec Ti Bar, XTR Cranks/Hubs/Rear Derailleur, original Yeti/Troy Lee paint/decals, etc. Of course, I'll send some shots of this ARC as soon as the restoration is complete! Thank you, and enjoy!
I bought the frame on ebay summer 08. it has fox vanilla forks,mavic cross max wheels,old school race face crank 1994ish.hope stem and the brilliant salsa moto bars,a great alternative to riser bars.very comfy intake volair saddle,its heavy but what the hell. cheers Mike from Lancashire
My 2008 Yeti ARC , size is small, Please add my Bike to your Website Yetifan The parts are , Folks exotic rigid carbon, stem/bars Matrix one peace carbon, Brakes Avid single digit, Group set Shimano XT Shadow, Rims Ritchey Rock Comp. Tires panaracer magic, Saddle Bontrager. This bike is super light and super Fast. from Mark , Cairns Australia.
With the Sus forks and is currently weighing in at bang on 20 lbs it was 16.9 when it was single speed and ti pace forks and those silly maxxis maxlite tyres (see photo), but it was no good for racing like that so I have had to compromise with 18 gears and a little give in the front end.
This is my Yeti, These are the details. Owner: Mark Terrill Address: Melbourne, Australia Bike: Yeti ARC 2008 Wheels: TWE with White powder coated rims Mostly XT/XTR Forks: Reba Race 2008
Great website!!!! My 96? ARC - Much loved had a lot of use over the last couple of weeks. I got it second hand from bromley in 98 after my Pace got nicked!!! It had HED wheels but they are no more. Keep up the good work. Paul www.mulley-photography.com
Bought used at the end of 2006, I built the frame with full XT groupset, Fox F100- USE carbon post & bars, Thomson stem. XT SPD, DT 4.2 rims, XTR disc brakes. Its a great winter bike & I love riding it. Its a USA made frame too, so thats a winner! Andrew
I hope you like this Arc. Thanks. Bye
My name is Mingo and I am from the island of Menorca (Balearic Islands) SPAIN. This is my YETI ARC.
I'd like to contribute with a couple of shots of my recently purchased Yeti ARC. The frame is – as you know – fabulous. The specs are functional and durable. I'm very excited to test out the Magura Fork, as its rarety here in Denmark . After the first ride it seems as a superstiff and plush do-it-all fork. But it needs tuning to fit my needs better. Note, that the bike on the pictures is set up to fit my girlfriend – she took it for spin, and she was thrilled as well. I ride it with the post way up and CB Eggbeater pedals. The bike is overall lots of fun – I'm not really into hardcore xc-racing, but just out there to have fun! And it's great! Best regards, Simon, Copenhagen , Denmark
My name is Nick, I live in England and this is my YETI ARC 08. I've just finished building it and these photos show it after a rather dusty first outing. Currently I'm running a combination of Race Face and XT with Juice Sevens doing the stopping. Up front I've gone with Fox 32 RLCs. Wheels are Hope Pro IIs laced into DT Swiss 5.10. All the usual extras include Chris King headset, Thomson post and headset, Easton flat bars and a Charge saddle. Still haven't managed to wipe the smile off my face. Nick Just thought I'd send in some pics of my ARC which is accompanying me to the MTB Orienteering World Champs.

Just picked up my Yeti ARC '08 frame and custom build from Bromley bikes – Apparently it's the second only 2008 frame sold in the country. Got to say as you would expect it rides brilliantly. 23 ½ pounds of fun. Spec: Yeti ARC frame- XTR front, rear and shifters. Avid juicy 7 brakes, Race Face Deus cranks with XTR SPDs, Thomson X4 stem, Thomson in line seatpost Chris King headset, Wheels – Hope pro 2 hubs, Mavic 719 disc rims, Maxxis high roller tyres Yeti Grips, And a bloody big smile to top it off……climbs superb… Keep up the goodwork, Lance
Bought this as a frame last year from Rob at BETD on ebay and have been in love with it ever since! Was fitted with Fox F100 but now with Rockshox Reba, XT groupset, magura louise FR brakes and thomson seatpost and stem. Rides great and looks even better. Regards Dave in Shropshire
