lol you could say so....
You are right, the slackers would be great for the bike, but i am Waiting for the Offset headset cups that "Ready to ride cycles" is releasing They are 2 degree offset, as opposed than 1 degree that the droupouts change.Looks good! Now go get the Slacker dropouts and turn it into a real DH destroyer!
Man I have almost the same setup only different wheels (Hope Pro2's laced to Dt 5.1's) and different cranks (stupid heavy Diablous with a Shimano bb) and she's a ripper, could stand to be a bit slacker though, the head angle is a little steep for sure, especially when you get on hairy steep stuff.
I'd go slackers and then add the offset headset cups if you still want it to be slacker.
I had always been a Marzocchi guy, but my experience with the 08 888 ATA was not good, I was never not able to get it set up properly, had some of the issues that the 08 models had, so I sold it and got the 40. btw after trying the 40, I'm never going back to Marzocchi.How do you sleep at night knowing that this ($5000+!) bike is sitting in a dark room for the entire winter? :biggrin:
Unless you live somewhere the snow falls in feet and doesn't melt until summer, you have no excuse to NOT be riding that thing!!
Did the (barely) 1 yr old 888WC fall apart while sitting in storage? Why the switch to an entirely new fork?
Guess if ya got the money, WhyTF not huh?
