The Double barrels are on the way to the factory, and we would have waited til they had arraived before we sent the frames off, but ken was like a rampant puppy humping my leg in despiration to get the frames, so we shipped them before he got too despirate and did something he would regret.

The shocks should be in the factory in a week or so, and as soon as they are in we will ship them out.

Wicked frame, let's hope it lives up to all the hype surrounding it.

Dunno 'bout you guys, but the metalwork around the shock area (actually the whole damn thing) kinda reminds me of these guys ->

Argh!
All CNC'ed and stuff! I want one.
Reckon you could get a weight on it when you get the shock? I'd be interested to see if they're as light as they're said to be.

Yum yum... :)

got the cane creek last firday night on the way to the 2nd round of the vic series at barjarg. the build quality is nothing like a fox or manipoo. looks very trick. bit of a bugger fitting it in with the spacers but once in all good. runs on spherical bearings so no need to touch it again! felt like shit out of the box and needed a lot of setup time. made a few adjustment and got it roughly setup, but no where near what it should feels like. will have to spend a few hours playing with it.
