Looks sweet mitchy. How do you like the rev compared to the fox float?

i've only been on a quick burn up to the post office, but i threw it off a few curbs. they feel more compliant with minimal rebound adjustments, both the fox's were a lot bouncier. the 6 setting low speed compression/lockout is fantastic too.

Went 1x10 on my stumpy a few weeks back.

Changes:
North shore billet bb30 1x10 spider

Raceface xx1 style chaing ring 34t

E13 direct mount guide

Crankbrothers kronolog lever installed to replace the mediocre specialized command post level - much nicer feel

Dare I say she might be finished?

Nice! Similar to my build in some ways, I went Fox 36s as well and replaced the crappy Command Post. Silly question, but is the 'direct mount' chain guide the one that bolts onto where the front derailleur used to live? Or the ISCG 05 one? Did you try riding it with just the Raceface ring before you also installed a guide?

gotta love the 26er stumpy's, a fun bike for sure... too bad they are as rare as hens teeth... hence why i got the jekyll (which i love a bit more now though but everyone says that about their own bike)

S3 direct mount bolts onto where the front derailleur lived.
ISCG ’05 mounts onto the 3 holes situated around the bottom bracket area.

After a couple months of building the Marin is almost finished, now just wider bars, tubeless and adjustable post left to do :) (oh and a paint job for the forks, i don't know why fox stopped painting after the primer step...:noidea:)
At the moment she weighs a bees dick under 16kg.. something i'm not to stocked about as i set out to build a sub 14.5 trail bike although hopefully going tubeless will shed a bit.
As far as the ride goes its awesome, my build is defiantly at the more hardcore end of all mountain so that helps with the downhills, in fact it might actually take over my downhill bike for some races and keeping in mind that it's still fun on the longer trail rides i'm pretty pleased.

Ok. .. first impressions... fox 32's are crap

The bike is completely different... The forks are so stiff and smooth. .. dampening is perfect out of the box. .. everything on middle settings except for the rebound which had an extra two clicks of rebound

Just can't believe how much they have transformed the bike. .. better modification than the super stiff enve rims. It's a mod I recommend to everyone.

Was always hesitant about rockshox after the revelations on the reign 1 that I had as I never gelled with them but these are perfect

Will give a better report after the weekend. .. Thanks again Tim at for the riders. .. very helpful
