This is my 04ish DH9 I had stolen then got it back a bit worse for wear and this the finished rebuild

Here is my DH-9 By the way, I made the decoration myself, handmade, so I appologise if it's not perfect

HI, I just aquired a DH-9 to go alongside my 575. Andy.
Stefan from Switzerland sent in this picture of his DH-9
I saw posted pics of lawwils on 'yetifan'. So Here`s mine Lawwill 4 `98 with Troy Lee grafics. While getting this frame I decided to try the old FS bike. This suspension type is relly plush (when you got sitable spring). And I really liked it. Frame size suits me excellent. So I use it everyweek for hard-trailriding. There was a big problem to get rear Hope C2 brake with calliper fitting standard 43mm between centers of the holes. After 4 month of mailing everywhere in the world I`ve found it in Australia (local trikes shop). This bike has custom painted rear Mavic 521 rim and special old-school yellow gear cables. Fork is Magura Laurin 130. It rocks hard Russian winter trails) Have a nice rides, - Jenya
Got the seat post to fit and had the rest of the parts turn up yesterday
My name is Matt. I'm from Indiana, USA. The DH-9 was a 2003 and I had to sell it for financial reasons, but it was probably the sweetest bike I've ever owned. I had it built up with SRAM X.0, Raceface Cranks, MRP Guide, Marzocchi 888, Chris King Steelset, White Industries Hubs, Sun Rims, Hayes Brakes,...Good times. I built the bike to be bombproof. It weighed around 48lbs, if I recall. I'll try to find other pictures but I'm not sure if I have any left.
Here is my DH rig, it`s 2nd hand and i`ve owned it for about 2yrs now. unfortunately its little rough round some of the edges (fixed mech-hanger, paint job, some parts) but still rocks with the best of them.. 04 M DH9 with Bomber 200mm 888`s up front, Hadley DH hubs on Mavic 729 rims running Hope M4 front, C2 rear brakes with Raceface chainset and Sram X9 in sink with a trusty MRP Device.
Heres an updated picture of the lawwill 4 frame you sold me a few years ago (and is currently on your website as a frame hanging from my ceiling) I was fortunate enough to get hold of some Airlines pretty cheap so it ecouraged me to build the frame up as a play bike... Psssst! Psssst! Weeeeeeee!!!! Neil
Fully rebuilt and repainted with custom Yetifan decal kit. Matching Rockshox.
I just bought this from a small bike shop in california, where it had been sitting for years and years. i'm not sure what year it is and they didn't know much about it except that it was raced by a female. on the bike it reads "Julz Rulz" I'm not sure if that might be referring to Julie ... it is a smaller bike i think maybe 15" from center of crank to top of seat tube? anyways its a very clean piece of yeti history hope you can add it to your sweet site! and any info on this bike would be appreciated. thanks Dustin
Here,s my new lawwill 4, got it well cheap off ebay. Ive managed to track down 1 ringle HED rim, once i get another which will probably take years i will stick em on. Russell
HI, here are some pictures of my newly built Lawwill 4. Mike.
sent in with his ARC AS & AS LT. (see ARC AS SECTION)
here´s my yeti, one of the early Lawwill 4´s. Bought in Germany with original yellow rims from hed and boxxer 152. Best regards Sven
Thought i would share a few pics of my new DH9 courtesy of ebay although i have changed most of the parts for my own preference. I think this will mean my 303 will be up for sale soon as i seemed to pick my tubed Lawwill to ride the majority of the time and will now probably use the mono. Tough decision though.
DH9 in Red. The Lawwill is still a tempting ride. Last ridden at the last Dragon race at Mynydd Du where it was superb.
Andy from the West Midlands in the UK, sent in these pictures of this recently finished Yeti Lawwill . From 97/98. Looks amazing, Dont yout hink?
My YETI DH-8 from Japan. Thank you.
This is bike no 1, the one that is in the 1997 Yeti catalogue (but built '96). It showed at the Anaheim show and is basically a new bike. Mert Lawill now works with geoff ringle in their new venture building parts for Indian motorcycles. When I negotiated a deal with Geoff for the ARC, I negotiated with Mert for the Lawill 4 too. This ose won't be going as it fits mefine as a 16". Basically the spec reads as it does in the back of the 97 catalogues, full 1996 XTR. But you'll also notice the only laid back moby post in existence. The 4 as you know had stops for a f/mech, to make it ridable XC, but mert needed a bit more reach. This is the first 'modern' DH machine, so it blows the old AS away.
Here is one of my YETI's. The Lawwill 8 is my fastest YETI (downhill, uphill is slow and a little bit exhausting). Lacation: Germany Frankfurt Mountains: Taunus Michael
Yeti Dh9 set up with RazorRock 20mm Hub, Marzocchi JuniorT 2004, Mrp system2 chainguide, Truvativ Holzfeller Crank , Mavic ex729 rims, Atomlab aircorp bar, Maxxis Minions 2,5" …..very fast !!! Thomas from Germany He is my Lawwill. (Jan just built a 303- here is his old Lawwill)
I still got the frame. Med venlig hilsen/Best regards - Jan Quist
This DH-9 is an 03 model, which i bought second hand. It is equipped with a manitou swinger 6 way, marzocchi's 888 with risse flat crowns, hayes barkes, mavic rims and some raceface components. It's an amazing bike ! best regards from France, Guillaume Thought it was about time I sent you some pics of my DH8 to post up on the web site. These are three years old now which means it looks about the same as when I rode it round the MBR route at Coedy at the tribe meet that year (2003). It's only slightly different now, just different bars, stem and saddle. The only major difference now is I managed to get a Pro Deluxe shock for it from ebay. The bike itself is a late model '99 with DKG shock linkage, '01 Boxxers, Ringle/mavic wheels, XTR mech and shifter, Hayes Mag brakes (note only 6" rear disk!), Raceface cranks and BB, Ringle Moby seat post and Slamma Jamma headset. It's a sweet ride even though it's starting to get a bit old now, but still gets the respect out on the trails. I got the opportunity to take it out to Les Gets last year where I think it found it's spiritual home. Lawwills rule! Paul It's got the Dorados up top a Vanilla out back (It's actually a really good shock). New SRAM x9 gears, hope m4 brakes, Saint cranks with blackspire guide, Easton monkeylite bars, ringle post and Yeti saddle,721 mavic wheels. It's a fantastic dh bike, I'm ripping up the local track most nights now. Will eventually fit 40's ready for when I can afford a 303. Matt.
I bought the frame last year (2006) on its own and had it completely stripped & resprayed by Argos Racing in Bristol (UK). The guy's name that did it was Mark and trust me by saying, the paint job is 110% immaculate (I would recommend these guys to anyone). I designed the layout and chose colours matching to my forks, then kitted this beauty out with the following:
I have already taken my pride and joy to the Alps for a lovely 11 days and it's by far the best DH bike that I have ever ridden. Well done to everyone at YETI. I was so impressed with the bike that I also bought myself a YETI DJ. I will send some pictures soon once I've done it up. Many thanks, Dave
