Super-freakin-Jealous. Does that frame have ISCG mounts?

 

[Damienp]

NO ISCG mounts. They have a custom MRP guide? (One of them anyway) that bolts onto one of the pivots and the BB.

And the rc4 as well! Just got them this week gone. Very nice. I thought the lyrics where awesome but these are on another level of awesomeness.

Nomad rides great, suspension design works so well. My build def on the aggressive side of AM, but such a capable ride. Never ridden app so can't say much on the butcher. I wonder how effected the suspension is under braking, in the end it's still a single pivot?

Nomad is certainly a capable bike, depending on what's being ridden I'd have to say the blt is another option, especially the updated model with the tapered steerer setup (not talking carbon).

my first serious mountain bike. stock standard. goes good down hills .

You should know better than that by now! The type of suspension design a bike has doesn't determine it's performance (for any parameter), the execution of the design does.

Back on topic; you gonna ride that on Tuesday? I might actually have a (slim) chance to beat you up the hills...

From my rudimentary understanding of suspension the linkages on the butcher serve to change the shock path/leverage ratio and not wheel path, and will not dissipate wheel torque under braking into the frame rather than the suspension like a vpp or maestro style suspension would/does, hence the suspension will stiffen under braking. But thats the limit of my knowledge!

Anyways yes Ill ride it tomorrow at Menai. Hope rain holds off.
