i must be suuuuper lucky as since 04 i really havent had one issue with any parts. ive had 3 manitou forks that i ran the piss out of (slider/travis triple 203 intrinsic/travis single 180 tpc) and am now on a boxxer team that im going to try this year. my only issue is the first travis was an 06 with the black stantions and a swear to go a feather rubbing them with i coat of Vaseline covering the stantion would still rub that f-in coating off.
dangerboy 2 finger levers i also must say are the bomb!
my fsa gap cranks came loose everyride for the first 3-4 weeks. there fine now
other then that i rally havent had any issues for years... things i learned before 04....
Mr. Control/Axiom chain guides suck and bend with any chain tension, deore hubs suck balls, sun BF mammoths and 2.6" stouts dont go well together, raleigh dh bikes, even when they actually are dh worthy (the smokin' dh), still suck. kenda kolossals are more worthless then the marzocchi tires, seeing one of the lady intense racers at a canada cup race behind the ski hut take off her armor to reveal nothing on underneath but a smokin hot bod rules........her realizing you were taking a shortcut to the pit and saw her....awkward
