That is as clean as my bike gets until the spring. Besides I ride the bike, and I thing it is better with the dirt on it.

Nice! I have that shock and I love it.

What year is your fork? It's a 36 RC2, right? How do you like it?

Bikes: a lot

That is sweet, But I'm confused, Kona rider 24, is riding a Gary fisher heckler, or Santa Cruz fat possum and changed his name to Smashy? It so hard to keep up with things!

Even if it is a GF, I'm glad to see he went suspended. Nice upgrade, Smashy. Tell us how it rides; we have new snow here

The shock is mad smooth. The bike rides so much better with the fox than it did with that manitou.

I first glanced at the photo and thought it said "Flat Possum". That would be a great bike name!
