they're both harbingers of a mis-spent youth. I am absolutely gassed about the Intense, never thought a 36-pound bike could be so much fun. And yes, I do ride it uphill. The King 20mm hub for the front should be here next week and it will be complete. yee haw

Is that a custom mod on the brakes being attached to the fork or is that standard ?

Hi Warren,

Are you talking about the Pace? If so, they're Magura brakes (the original) that are mounted on the reverse side of the forks to improve braking efficency.
