Well, here is #1. DW and I worked real hard to make this the best DH bike we could come up with. This bike has some big shoes to fill following the Sunday of Daves and my line of DHR's.
This bike will be on display in Vegas, but since it is not heat treated there will be no bouncing or test riding. Wish it was possible but we ran out of time.
It is a little early to mention weight of a proto, but for the sake of conversation it is 405 grams lighter than the 08 DHR, yes that is with a steel spring. Fitz from Fox loaned us his Ti spring so it looks cooler on display. Thanks Mark.
And I cannot thank Darren at PUSH enough for making this possible. The machinist that was making the 8 main pivot bolts dropped the ball last week and we were done. When Darren found out he asked for the drawing and with a change of wrench type was able to make a bikes worth in a day and over night them to us.
