My big hit will be running by fellcrag (getting BB on wednesday and chainguide Thurs/firday) but, I don't have a fullface or the cash for entry fee for fellcrag :( I could go and watch fellcrag but my time will be better spent riding rather than watching :) Got the bike.. now just gotta get out there to get the skills to match :p

I should definately be at the next race after this weekend! I actually got my frame (pro not DH) 2nd hand with rear wheel for 1300. That included the shock and the tire/tubes etc. Tacken me a couple months to put it together but, it has been worth the wait and now I can get out and ride :)

Get yourself some single crowns frank. Mozo's only have 5.5 inch of travel anyway so to reduce the chance of cracking another frame, change your forks :)

hey frank-oi nice bike, but in ya last picture i see ya put a new spring in the red one the black on on the bricks is the old one yea, if it is the black one looks bigger and so if you've put a shorter spring on the shock that mean that when it goes to bottom out it cant coz the springs will hit and im pretty sure that that is real bad for it, ya might wanna get it looked at i may be wrong thow

the red spring is the new one. yes it's shorter in lenght but. it is still longer then the onriginal stock spring. that the bike came with so it's all good.

the black one is a fox 800 that i got when it was new. the red i got the other day witch is a RS 700.

but yeah it's bigger then the original spring size.
