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?
Full pic on its way soon.

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...

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.

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.
