Got my hands on a G2. Sorry for the dodgy pics, the silver forks make it hard to get photos of the black frame with phone. Bos suspension in the mail. Enjoy, I will.

Are they available?
Very soon. Two weeks to a month I'd say. Depending where you are on the globe.

Thanks for sharing/rubbing it in
Pedal it around a bit yet, first impressions?
Weight difference noticeable?
Suspension feel the same at the beginning, middle, end of the stroke?
Feel just as fast, faster, through the rough?
thanks!
Haven't given it a good thrash yet, and the shock was just bought to get it rolling, over sprung for me, and my G1 was a bit under sprung, so yeah it feels like less travel more poppy/responsive/nimble, but I couldn't claim due to new frame. Does feel slacker though surprisingly. Have smashed it through some rocks yet. Will be slapping a Bos air shock in it next, so again I'll not have a good level playing field to judge sorry.Thanks for sharing/rubbing it in

Are those the fancy KMC 9 speed chains? or is that just a gold colored bmx chain?
Dont we have to run 8 speed?

Yeah pretty sure they're the 9 speed. I've run them for a couple of years now on my Zerodes, so has a mate.
does the frame fit now all air shocks?
The Bos has the piggy back/resi at the thin end like Manitou. I believe there's more shock space to accommodate a double Barrel air, but I'll measure tomorrow.
Justin I am running 10spd SRAM's I would suggest 9spd maybe. I got a little nerdy and found lightish SRAM chains for not too much.
Awesome-ive got 2 nine speed chains!

Old E13 ones are about. But there's light Ally ones on CRC etc. You may have to chop or file them shorter a touch. The spacer width isn't really a set thing. I recommend getting chainring(with chain on) as close as possible to frame on G1. This will give you the straightest line for the primary drive chain. Doesn't matter too much if there's still a decent gap to frame, just the closer the better.
Yep. Are they Ally ones? The steel ones weigh a ton.
You can just use the steel females and any Ally or Ti male.

Looking at designing a new Zerode-saint-specific chainring. Build the spacer and ring as one piece, and the extra thickness would allow me to tap it directly, eliminating the 4 female nuts at the same time. That's six parts into one.
Also, I've found that it's hard to get the stock setup perfectly centered, meaning that the primary chain has a tighter spot and a loose spot. The new ring would properly locate on the "shelf" of the crank spider to centralize it. I'll keep the monkeys posted.

yes it is, the spring on there is from a vivid (lil bit longer) compress it and than take it off. That was put on at the windham WC by the SRAM guys. Beggers cant be choosers

Cool trick, thanks. Long screwdriver + tow strap. Saved me a bunch of time and swearing.
Its not...
G1=3" stroke spring.
G2=2.75" stroke spring.
Just for future reference.

It is.
he bought the bike from me, trust me, its a 3.0 shock.
and just for ****s and giggles, this is what it looks like with a 2.75 spring on it
so, it is a 3.0 spring...
Ahhh. I though he bought a new G2.he bought the bike from me, trust me, its a 3.0 shock.

I should see ours in a week or so!!!
Right- I've made the easy decision (to buy a G2),
Now...........the hard part-
Black or Charcoal????
What d'yall reckon?

I was at a Shimano Presentation last night and they were talking about Alfine DI2 electronic internal hub gear shifting - anyone out there thought about it/tried it?
Black with Stealth Graphics. Full murder build.
Hey guys, Just got myself a 2011 G1 frame. Chucked all my part off my Sunday which was 39lbs, with the zerode frame it comes in at 46lbs minus TI spring.
Just wondering what you guys did to counter the chainstays increasing in length making the front very hard to get up. Obviously it has to happen but any way to make it feel more poppy on the front.
Also any ideas on whether a vivid air will fit the 2011 and has anyone tried one?
any weight losing tips?
