hey thanks for the praise. I'm loving the bike even though i'll be off it for a little while thanks to a buggered AC joint in my shoulder.

thanks goes to Fuzzy for the photo taken at Johnny Waddell's fundraising race. By the way, if anyone cares, i beat fuzzy by about 15 seconds at the race.

Yep the stinky frame with dangerboycnc 7" linkage plates is sitting in a box right now. Might get it powdercoated for use later or i might sell it.

NOt rich, i work at a bike shop so i can buy stuff at a reasonable price.

the saddle is very comfy. Not much time on it at the moment however. Because of my shoulder i'll have to wait before any decent reports come out.

thats simple. I don't bunnyhop. The seat post is up like that so i can pedal in the DH runs. Part of the reason i got this bike is so that ican learn to bunnyhop and manual properly. I wanted to learn all the cool tech skills without the bobbing of suspension getting in the way. I'm going to throw on the hookworms this weekend and tr y and ride the bike next week ( even though the shoulder aint' fixed)

Sup Dan?

i've said it at the race nad I shall say it again, your bike owns :D. Are you still going to get Dual Crown forks for it? Or are they for the stinky?

Wootcore, hopefully you can join the Urabn Full Face Crew during winter or whatever :p!

Can you make the ride on the 22nd, even though your shoulder is stuffed?
