RAW is a standard color for the frame. There should be no higher price for that. Get the Dorado Pro all our testers who has been riding it love it.

Now that you know raw isn't a custom color, can I ask what you've heard that's bad about the 888 EVO?
WORLDS MSA,at the marz booth,I heard the guys talking about blowing them often.

I've always know raw,black and red are stock no charge fee colors.I wanted either blue or yellow or maybe racing red wich are custom color options that are 200$ however my LBS is asking 500,hense them beeing basts.

In a Van(couver) down by the river
I have seen and heard really good things about the new Dorado. For a DH sled, definitely worth a look. I run a Boxxer, (Team - I like it) friends of mine have 40s that need to be rebuilt all the time to feel good. Lots of 888s out there, but with very mixed reviews. Every person I have spoken to that is on a new Dorado loves it.

WORLDS MSA,at the marz booth,I heard the guys talking about blowing them often.

i havent heard really any problems with the new Evo's.

P-spec...are you sure this shop is an Intense Dealer??

Works Raw, RED, Black Chrome are all standard colors...so for the $2999USD you get one of those colors in an M9-FRO, a bada$$ canecreek double barrel shock, all 3 cups of a complete AngleSet. (or downgrade to a RC4 for $2950USD). Upgrade colors are $200.

As for the Marz fork, I say with this with no Bias as we are not sponsored by anyone (hell, we spec FOX on everything) but the entire CRC team rode those forks, former world champ Leigh Donovan rode that fork all season and did not have any issues, and loved the performance of the fork.

I see your town says 'quebec'

If you are canadian...then those numbers quoted are not the same for Intl. customers.

Drop me a PM with your email addy and I will look into it...

Oh, and we have not built ANY raw frames yet, everything has been painted. But stay tuned to our facebook page, works raw M9-FRO should be up soon.

Works Raw is clear coated isnt it?
Nope.

Would you want it coated? I can't say that I would. I use my SS in some pretty wet conditions and the finish looks pretty cool to me. The top tube is almost polished from normal use. I really wish my 951 was raw too.

Guess I should order a M9. :rolleyes:
