hi, i have just bought a giant dh comp 2002 (used) ill probably paint it (any color suggestion?) ive all ready bought some of the 2004 stuff for the frame like bearings and bushings rear shock blah blah blah....
the main argument i want to bring is.. i have a 2000 marzocchi mister T... yeah the old school one ... do u think it will work fine for some seasons? have no money left and well its a 6 inch front fork ... and it doesnt outweight the 8.25 rear...

also...

i have a raceface dh spilned bb will the xtr dh cranks fit it?
i also have an e-13 chainguide i want to know if i need to cut down some of the polymer because ive heard it doesnt quite fit perfectly....

if anyone has pics of pimped giants dh... please post them to give me ideas...

thanks a lot

I wouldn't paint the frame; use that money to pick a new fork. You can pick up a Super T for pretty cheap or a Junior T (just have Marzocchi put Super T internals in it). Other than that, a 2002 Giant is a nice bike...enjoy!

Check out Super Go, they have a 2003 Super T for really cheap at their Santa Monica store...1-310-451-9977.

On the other hand, I'm sure the 2000 Marzocchi will work fine for you...

lol definately i love my mister t... when i tune it properly it feels like and 888 hahahhaa no way! anyways it feels pretty good... i was planing on painting it because here in my country i can get it for about 30 bucks... so... if you have any ideas of colors that would be nice tell me about them...
hmm probably i will get an 888 but it would be for the end of the year or so...
