All the hate on shimano is crazy.. Maybe it's personal preference but I'd rather run shimano then sram any day of the week. SRAMs brakes are trash, derailleurs are made of glass and the cranks are as flexy as a wet noodle. Not to mention every rockshox product I've used has leaked like a sive
Yeah it works. The shock goes up n down. 87+/90- pressure. Run the lsc two clicks, hsc fully open. Run thru 145mm of travel fairly regular. 160mm if I do dorps to flat or josh bender jumps. It's light, stiff and well made. I'm enjoying it so far, had wallowing issues at first but that was easily...
Shit clapped by bender himself! My favourite part of one of that users adds was "The frame has some rust, which I actually like because it gives it character (I wanted a "raw" steel one originally)"
Hey you can always do what I did
Go pick up a 08ish fox 36 van r for a couple hundred bucks, have it in the medium travel setting and pick up a compatible front wheel for 30 bucks. Browse the classifieds from all the mountain bike websites and you will find steals!
Goodluck on your search brother
I had the newer 2011 model and dented the stantion right in the milled part. If the guys at mz north van say its going to be good, it will be. Naz is a wizard.
I have friends with 2012 models of these bikes. The Wilson rides more centrally where as the podium is more over the back. My riding style involves a lot of plowing so the knolly would be my first choice, not saying that the Wilson can't plow because it certainly can, I just dislike the riding...
Have you guys tried the new 75mm flat bar by them in 950mm length??? They also make a stem with a three inch drop, friend of a friend of mine told me its going to be the rage at whistler this year.
