raw polished dw goodness? i approve good sir!
I stilll want to see the whole collection...
That hood bike is awesome. Thread winner
Where did you get this fork? How does it ride?
Well I came off a 2012 Fox 40, and have limited ride time on the suntour, but I actually prefer it to the 40. Air sprung, standard adjustments (HSC, LSC, R, among some internal stuff) It's good

i dont have the rest yet, but here is a start
I'll make a thread sometime with the "collection." I still need to photo some bikes.
The Z150 is a great fork aside from being heavy. Made in Italy and pretty much bomb proof. Run 2.5 wt oil and 0 psi in the air assist and its a super responsive fork or add a few psi of air and you'll never ever hit bottom.
Love those SIC cranks. I tried for years to get a set.
/raises hand
anybody got one of these?

Here we go:
Decided to pull the trigger on this one.
Mainly for the parts, but after the first testride it's possible that the frame will stay for a while too
So far i am really happy with it. the first testride was in less than ideal conditions (10cm of snow at the top, the whole track was wet like hell and roots and rocks everywhere), but the geo of the frame is a real improvement over my old frame (Session 88 '09). I really enjoy the lower BB, 63° headangel and short chainstays (in 425mm setting). Even with the longer wheelbase as my old bike I feel that this bike is way faster and more "direct" to ride. At the same time you have the benefit of the longer wheelbase in the highspeed chunder.
I was amazed about the smoothness of the fork. Stiction is equal if not better as on my regular serviced 888evo right out of the box. For an air fork with negative air spring really impressive.
The brakes impressed me too. They are definitely on par with my old Saints (810).
I am really happy so far. Will be back with a detailed review in a month or two.
And no, I am not tabletop's slave
Partlist:
size: Large
HA: 63,5 but measured more like 62,8°
CS: currently 425, but 430 and 435 possible
Reach: 440mm
Stack: 585mm
BB height: 360mm

Sell that frame already! How can you ride this abomination?
shouldn't he be scammed by now?
The frame will break for sure.
He has it so he is scammed by the evil YT bikes. He gave them a free loan and they gave him a very cheap and nicely specced bike. Obviously he is a sheep and the bike can't ride well.shouldn't he be scammed by now?
This is Zerode USA's Light Build Kit bike it is a LG and came in at 38.15 with pedals so mid 37's for all you weight weenies. Also the Fox 40 AIR will be used once available and that will shave another pound off the build. I will list whole kit in a bit!
Nice light build. Ridden it yet? What is the ride like compared to the G1? Miss that extra travel at all?
How is the DB Air on there?
Sorry for all the questions but I'm really interested in the bike and I don't know if I'll get the chance to see one in person let alone ride one before buying it so I'd really like more info.
