that is gonna be so sweet when its finished. XTR and saint drive train, XT brakes, what else could you ask for? maybe a chris king headset, oh wait a sec, you got one....damn dude, sweet rig. i owuldnt change a thing to that bike at all, maye the front hub, but only if it dies (not likely).

interesting choice- elite dh parts with some basic freeride stuff. Looks good though, dunno about the romic choice but yeah, each to their own. Is it fast?

It blew up....we had to pay $150 postage to get it over therE ( even though it was warranty ) and then on friday we recieved it back with a snapped off rebound adjuster....they are sending over a full new shock for me but it pisses me off coz I missed out on the state round because of it and I basically wasted $150....when I blew it I also had a look on the mtbr manufacturer forums and it seems they blow all the time, just never heard about it over here because there are so few
