why's that. I'm looking more for versatility than straight up DH.

I only question how the bike would ride with the shorter fork...

Saw a 1.5 steerer 66RC2X on BTI and Ride This today. Read a couple of sites over the last month that said this was going to be OEM-only. Is it now going to be sold aftermarket? About when will these hit the market?

 

[Brian Peterson]

It will be happening... I don't know when those will land here...

i know that this is going to be way off subject. but the dh forum is filled if more info than any other.

so

any info on the new XC 600 and 700 forks??

the reason i ask is because i'm building a new xc bike and need a fork for it.

thanks

I think i'm gonna change the shock from a 3in dhx to a 2.75dhx-air. Yeah i know my bike will be a bit of a bastard, but 9in rear, and 7.5-8 front is a bit much for IL, well so its a 66sl but....

Does anyone have the 2007 Zoke forks in stock yet? I really want a World Cup.

 

[Brian Peterson]

I haven't even seen any of the World Cups come in yet...

Hey Brian,
Are the internals for 07 888's the same size on the 06 888s. I ask b/c I'm thinking of either upgrading my internals to the SL or just getting a new fork if the internals are not interchangeable. Thanks...

 

[Brian Peterson]

I think so, but until I see all the drawings and can compare part numbers, I don't know for sure.

What about a weight for the World Cup?

Brian: would it be a good idea to use a 2007 66 SL ATA 180 mm for my DHR (now use a 888 RC2X) and still have the same head tube height, seems to be about the same. And also use it on my heckler for heavy use (have an AM1 for XC) in the 140-150 mm travel mode, it does get shorter when you decrease the travel doesn't it?

Would be great to have such a flexible choice of set ups available for my bikes.

it does get shorter by the amount of travel you subtract, just like uturn or the likes.
