i just wanted to be sure after seeing thatI got mine built last week :
Frameset (Indonesia retail box) came with :
- Thomson 30.9mm
- FSA Headset zero stack (Reducer installed on frame) w/ carbon spacers
- BB30 - 24 adapter (SRAM)
- Seat clamp (non QR)
- RD Hanger protector (but the pin is not saint M810 compatible)- Manuals, Cable ties.. ready to go
biz.
Thats right, I forgot about that one. That has to be it. ThanksMaybe Jason thought gazzou was talking about the 800 series Saint with the axle mount? It was slightly confusing as he said "bolt-on".
Yes, I was thinking about the Saint that mounts to the threaded axle.Maybe Jason thought gazzou was talking about the 800 series Saint with the axle mount? It was slightly confusing as he said "bolt-on".
All Demos come with an integrated outboard hanger protector. I have never seen anyone lose a derailleur at the hanger with this design.I used to run the RD hanger on all my bikes until my rear derailleurs starting getting ripping off instead of the hanger. Replacing the hanger is an easy trail side and a lot cheaper than having to replace a derailleur.
I actually don't know 100%, but my guess is that it will fit fine. Only the Fox 40 has the "upside down" looking lower crown.JC-
Will the Manitou Dorado fit okay on the new Demo? Just checking to make sure there aren't bumper issues like the Fox 40.
Thanks for responding in this thread!
Excellent paint job!
Is it just me or is the damper side stanchion way more silver colored than the spring side?
I call dibs on your fork for next yearProtip: Hammerschmidt facing tools works great on PF30 shell and iscg tabs.
That's a pre production version of the storm. The production ones will be a little bit different with regards to gripper size and placement.
I'll be using a Fox RC4, but I have both yokes in order to try out a vivid as well as soon as I can get my hands on one.
Warranty void?!
lucky! i ordered my green one before i knew the black was availableMy shop called today to tell me that Black Frames wont show up on the west coast until the END OF FEBRUARY! Suck!!!
Not really. You'll be shedding on your green long before mine shows up. And green still looks seriously good.lucky! i ordered my green one before i knew the black was available
That green looks really yellow to me. Saw one in person the other day and needed to put my sunglasses onNot really. You'll be shedding on your green long before mine shows up. And green still looks seriously good.
i mean to say yellow, i wasnt thinkingThat green looks really yellow to me. Saw one in person the other day and needed to put my sunglasses on
It's going to be a couple months, sadly. Big machines turn slowly sometimes.Anyone heard anything closer about when (how to get) the vivid yokes is going to be available?
You have to get specialized frames/bikes from dealers. They don't allow them to be sold online.Anyone know of any websites that got demo 8 frame in stock, and ship to Norway ?
They are in the UK, policies might be different over there. I've worked at two specialized dealers and I know for a fact they can drop you as a dealer if they find out you are selling their bikes online and/or shipping them. Does that mean it never happens...Freeborn seems to be able to sell online though?
