I WOULD IMAGINE there 308's (because of the weight) and doesn't make thaaaaat much difference just what you prefere. and aren't they 308's on the site?

It'll be pretty damn good. I sat on a Ryde the other day, and they feel pretty nice. The 250 can only be nicer. Despite pictures, what struck me the most was that the tubing isn't ridiculously thin. It's about as thick as STP tubing, if not a little bigger. Nice and sturdy, and the bars are pretty mad too. 710mm of Funn metal.

the 302's have no rebound ajustments, were as the 318's have Rebound ajustments, External Compression and Lock

in the picture on the norco site, and the one i attatched, you can see the compression and lock out on the forks, so by that i gather there 318 but on the norco website it says:

RockShox Argyle, 100mm travel, 20mm axle, rebound adjust, coil

doesnt mention the External Compression and Lock-out

yer i know what you mean. but because on the site it actually sais rock shox argyle forks, 100mm travel, rebound adjust. i think they are the 302's coz that's what they do. the 318's have compression adjust aswell. anyway i dont really care what forks they come with as long as they argyles :) i'm still getting this sexy beast of a bike.
