Cheers buddy, It's going to be getting some more parts soon. Cant make up my mind if I should get an '07 Rock Shox Boxxer World cup, or an '08 Marzocchi 888 ATA WC. I can get both for around the same price brand new, any opinion?

He broke it a few days ago IIRC

Your bike is/will be when the 36 hits it dialed Smashy, no compromises from what i can see, very purposeful. Don't see that often, smart guy to be able to have that.

Crappy picture for now, I'll have to wait till the camera gets back so I can get some better shots. These do it no justice, it really looks good and rides solid. I'm very happy with it.

I still have to put on my new chain and I've been eying up a new seat for it...

I'm not familiar with the cable routing on the treks, but isn't that rd cable a bit long smashy?

doesn't look long at all to me, Hell mines probably got 2-3 more inches more cable ran than yours. I"m guessing he's thinking about the new SRAM's that don't require the loop.

That's certainly an interesting spec list on a Stinky. Not for me, but whatever works. Stock fork?

Why the rear tire choice? Looks....fun, yet odd. Nice.

All the trails around here are hardpack/slickrock and the semi hooks up great and the only time I need the tire to "dig" is when cornering. Interestingly enough it works quite well in the deeper dirt/sand (when I do encounter it) also.

Fork ans shock are stock for now as the rest of my money is going into building the Dh rig. When I do change 'em out I will be tossing a Totem and Vivid on there.

Nice bike dbd. A semi slick on the rear is fun if you like to let er hang out there a little from time to time. Plus the reduction in rolling resistance is HUGE.
