The chainguide was put on by Gravity Warehouse in Soutwhick, MA. I trust that they did it right, and it works fine. The bike rides great. It's a 30.0 seatpost.

It's not slack in person, allthough it looks it in the pictures, it was leaned/tilted. Also, I can lower the fork to 4 inches if neccasary.

You do know you can not ride/jump that fork in it's reduced travel position, don't you? It WILL break, trust me. Answer will tell you the same thing.
Yeh, I knew that before I bought it. Thanks for the warning though.

Why does it break? I'd think that that would make the short position kinda useless if all you can do is look at the fork in that position and think "I wish I could try that new fork of mine in the 4" setting...Sure looks good that way though."

I don't get it.

I thought that was only true of the ones a couple years old? :think:
