Spend any time on the wheels?
Not yet, I'm planning on riding some local trails tomorrow but they are calling for snow and these aren't the kind of trails I would want to ride in the snow. I'll give a report if I do get to ride them. The shock also needs to get set up and I'm a moron so I have a feeling it might take all day.
Plan on buying some new wheels. I have witnessed one get completely demolished in a weekend of racing in Virginia. Like unrideable demolished. But they look so smooth.
I will be riding something along the lines of this. (Bad picture but it is the only one I have right now)

My new Ride for '11
Intense M9 FRO
Intense M9 FRO
i just ordered a V10C for someone but apparently they dont have any swingarms to complete the builds...their guess is up to a 2month wait
Can't. Mine's still in Taiwan 
Now I just have to buy some parts... Tomac Vanish 160. SO PUMPED to have this as my new mini DH bike. This thing is going to be perfect for most CA DH races.
Thanks everybody, here is weight and specs: 17,1kg medium size, vivid shock, #450 steel spring, boxxer team w/ avalanche cart, mavic ex823 ck front hadley rear, 2.5 minion ust, formula the one 8" front and rear, saint 165, lg1 and shimano pedals.
btw photos taken on my garage haha, not a sub station. And I had put 3M on those signs for sure, in the picture it doesn't like so, anyway thanks for the tip.

careful with the 40 on that, the bumpers special ed give you don't do jack****, theres a entire thread about it on mtbr, some guy dented the hell out of his frame.Just a start, plan on a few upgrades....
i9 faded, 831, saint, E13
i9, atomlab, saint, slx, fox
more to come, waitin on parts
The bumpers have been changed, and that guy was NOT JRA as he claimed.
i didn't follow the tread to the end what change did they make to the bumpers?
The old bumpers were too soft and basically mushed out of the way. The new ones are substantially harder and work great. I am running my demo with a 40 with no problems.
Also the dude claimed JRA, but apparently had a pretty big crash or something to boot.
well good thing they fixed that, not really surprising he crashed either, they looked more like cracks then dents to me.

that bike looks tiny next to you. are you 7' tall?

My 2010 TR450 weighs about 39.5lbs. I know the 2011 frames cut about .5lb and that Vivid Air likely makes a huge difference. Good job sir.
Single ply? Not "hating" on the bike, but single ply tires have no place on a DH bike.
