Well I know there are not to many Corsair build pics floating around so figured I would post what I just finished building up. They are almost all set, missing a few final touches (pair of new seat posts, new pedals on each etc.). No money left for new boxxer.

Running the Crown with a -1 degree Corsair headset, HA is at 64 degrees. Not sure on weights yet, but parts are combination of light + stuff that wont fall apart over 10-15 east coast races. The crown should be sub 40 pounds.

Will try and post some reviews when I get to ride them, but due to shoulder surgery not cleared to do so till March 23rd.. For now they are just sitting in my living room possibly giving me motivation to get in shape or run or somthing - but probably not.

Good stuff. I have always liked the Corsair offerings.

Are you running the Crown with the double shock set up or single?

With a low rise bar on the Crown, I think (once you're back on the bike) you'll notice a significant handling improvement.

I'd be keen to hear how the Konig rides.

Good luck with the recovery.

As of now I'll be running the crown with the double shock set up for simplicity and a decent amount of courses around here have pretty big hits and bumpy high speed stuff that I think it will come in useful. (plus it adds very little weight.) Maybe I'll change my mind once I start riding though..

As for low rise bars, yea I want to get lower wider bars, those were swapped over from my old bike and have seen a couple seasons.. Probably do that upgrade along with seat post and pedals closer to when I will be riding

sick rides. I'm having a great time on my Maelstrom. I'm sure your going to be in love with those sweet bikes once your up and riding again.

Sick rides man! The parts for my crown are shipping out next week. I'm praying I can get it built up, and some time on it for that matter, before my first race of the season (feb 27th). I'm really interested in hearing your reaction to the konig. I'm seriously considering one for slalom next year. Heal up quick and enjoy!
