It will be with me this weekend. I'm facing the headtube, BB, and brake tabs today, and installing the headset and ISCG guide. Everything else gets slapped together and dialed tomorrow. Unless my brakes don't come in until Friday... that would kinda' suck, but it's a possibility.

Anyway, there you have it.

That thing is beautiful. Cannot wait to see it in person. What fork are you running on it? Are you getting it painted to match?! You better...


Side note - the eye to eye on that shock looks HUGE

Shock is 9.5" x 3.0". Yeah, it's BIG. It's funny how big it looks, when my DHX on my last bike was only 8.75". Amazing what 3/4 of an inch does.

I have a Ti spring to throw on there, my Elixir brakes should be here today or tomorrow, and everything else from my 7point will transfer over without a hitch.

And not too worry... I traded my Totem Solo-Air for a Boxxer Team with matte black lowers to match the frame. The stickers were screwy, so I got new decals for the lowers, and it looks like almost a brand new fork. And the guy sent me both a light spring, and a medium spring, so I swapped the medium spring into the fork yesterday.

I'm giddy like a little school girl.

Considering the Twenty6, but haven't decided. 45, 50, and 55mm are all a little long in my opinion for a DH stem. I want something that's 40, which I think my Funn stem is.

I'm going back and forth between the black Twenty6 stem (to match my pedals), and a red Straitline stem, but that stem is only 28mm. Too short. I'd prefer either a 35 or a 40mm stem.

I'm liking the red accents, reminds me of my bikes:cheers:
