2 x 10 taking over?
stuff looks good...love this time of year...
personally i don't hate 10spd, if i had the extra $$$ laying around when I did my last build I would have done a 1x10 XX...
now im stuck with this 1x9 trash.

Looks the same. I wonder if there are any improvements in durability, functionality or weight.
why yes, i do believe that will work out nicely
this is the DH forum!! why are there non-DH parts here??!?!?!?!?
The trigger shifters looks so sleek..hotness!!!
didnt they just release 2010 products? why show anything related to 2011 stuff?
looks like match maker is gone.
For the same reason that the santa cruz single pivots have been dominating the forums-we ride dh, but that doesn't mean that's all we like. Most of don't exlusively ride dh, and like it or not, we are stuck with alot of these xc components.

Pay attention.
New Codes:
And the Vivid Air.
X2
Good looking stuff good find Nags!
I bought a new set of canfield crampons last week and already 2 rides throught the rockgardens they look almost as bad as my old ones. So Ill stick to the hopefully lower priced last years stuff the way Im hamering stuff so far this season. Fricking riding like a bulldozer, too much time off with injury...
those new codes look like quite a promise... Lighter codes with same braking power = gold. I would hope sram would release some sort of dedicated DH line, ala saint from shimano

Did they quit hose turn-able at caliper mount (like they used to have and Formula with Hayes still have) ?
actually most brakes at the market are stronger according to this graph

Sram always shows ne stuff at Sea Otter......
those codes look really smooth...
it was sarcasm guy. because people get their panties in a bunch for posting non specific DH stuff here and 10speed related stuff.
but didnt they just show their 2010 stuff a few months ago?
Weird findings. I really liked the first generation codes that came on my 07 Sunday. I'm using Hayes Stroker Trail's on my DH bike now and power is similar and the Trails have a little more bite.
The Codes I had seemed to allow me to have more feel at the lever and ride them a little more forgivingly. If I wanted them to lock up, they would with a very instinctive feel. The Trails stop on a dime, which I don't mind, but wouldn't mind having a little more feel in them.
I used a pair of top of the line Elixirs once on a demo ride and hated them. Couldn't touch them without a near OTB experience, but felt another set a week later that were great.
Who really knows anymore. But I do like graphs.
what the?......how the?......looks nice. i am assuming this will also work w/out the fork shifter thing-a-ma-bob on there. i don't use matchmaker on my DH bike but i really really like it on my AM bike. good find, thanks.matchmaker X is the new version..
yeah, both looks interesting.I like new Codesand the Vivid Air may be nice 2nd shock for my Glory
Snagged a screenshot...
I find 9 speed to be perfect. Wider range gearing than 8s had with a strong chain and cassette. 10s is good for XC racing perhaps.
Those cranks don't look to be able to even mount a bashring! More XC only stuff.
That Vivid air has the air can oriented so that the shock should work well, like a coil, but won't be easy to service like a Fox style setup.

Because you can't build a 29lb DH bike with DH parts. LOL

OH dang. DO WANT.
Thought you were serious. Tough to tell with you.
I would have to agree with you that people should lighten up about the content in these forums.
