That was the Party Stripper concept. We made just 6 frames, 2 for ourselves and the rest for anyone else interested in partying.
Those 4 Party Strippers are now spread around the world in different loving homes, so we thought we'd check in on them and find out how our little babies are doing.
Meet Jesse's PS. He built his frame to be a serious killer staying true to the original geometry and adding some sick kit. So Jesse's bike check:

"The XFS Party Stripper rides just like my aggressive hard tail but adds the right amount of squish in there for better traction and extra pop. Don't be fooled by it's size tho, it's a little rocket on the downhill and makes you want to attack the trails hard. With it's 120mm or 143mm rear shock capability and sliding rear drop outs, it's the utlimate quiver killer for me."
Now time pics of this sexy ride:
