About to Order a new DH fork unless...
One of you has something I can't pass up... anyone?
a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

I'd look around on the internet for a bit. There are some outrageous deals on pinkbike right now. New and used.

I've had great luck with go-ride.com out of SLC. Got a new Fox 40 for the front and a FOX DHX RC4 for the rear at GREAT prices. And they have rad customer service. Love giving them a shout out.

Definitely a good option but you have to call them and ask the following if a guy named krispy answers: Why should I buy a dh fork from a guy that rides a 29er? I'm not confident in the information you may provide since I'm not sure you understand what downhill mountain biking really is.

I can get a good deal on a new one more looking for a used DEAL. I have a hard time with Pink bike buy/sell.a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Yeah it's only supposed to be in the 100-120 mm range. But maybe that's just the teaser before they unleash the BIG DOG. Moto-style. Its just a matter of time...... Like 29 and 650B, heh. Originally Posted by rideit

I pulled the trigger on a used R2C2. I told the seller Rock Shox was releasing a Twenty Six Fifty BEEE fork with black magic molded into the bushings and the stanchions so give me another 100 off today before your fork is worth nothing tomorrow.

Ha. Not far off the mark. Too bad they dumbed down all of the the new Boxxer's to RC only. Originally Posted by rludes025

Proflex / Girvin / Noleen wasn't an inverted design, it was a linkage. I really liked that fork, and the Lawwill Leader. Originally Posted by stuckathuntermtn

Yeah, the linkage thing. How novel.
You know what? Fuck the safety bicycle. It's got safety right in the name. That's how you know it's all been a gimmick for the last hundred-some-odd years.
If you need me, I'll be on my Penny Farthing. Cheerio, pip pip, wot wot, and all that, guv'nuh.No longer stuck.
