... nice bike!

Here's my Shova. We raced Cal State DH last weekend. :)
I race sport, so I only need 6" of travel.

sweet!!!! you running a z1 on there?

Z1. At first I was concerned because it was way too stiff (I'm 5'5" and about 138 lbs), but the guys at Marzocchi told me to take out the right (non-ETA side) spring. (????)
It worked. Nice and soft. This fork is sooo nice!

The bike has a shorter wheel base than I've been used to, so all I have to do is lean or shift my weight and it responds. The Shova is really going to teach me fine body English.

I'm looking forward to more time together... :-)

We head to Deer Valley next week!

i have one trail ride on mine so far. no riding yet with the pike though. i haven't been on a fully in a year and a half. i'm coming off an imperial so the wheel base on the shova seems almost long.

Those things are so perty. I met one of they're pros in Asheville about a hear ago. He was a really cool, down to earth guy, and his bike was sweet

I like those bikes. First time I saw them was at a race at ETSU last year.
