If I recall James leaving JGR was more of a mutual decision..

Unfortunately for trek money talks..especially in a sport where even the top riders are barely making a good living, Aaron doesn't come off like the guy just out to make a buck but he needs to do what it takes to survive.

PERFECTION!

Rating:

The Good: Proper valving for both rebound and compression, easy as hell to set up, smooth hydraulic bottom out, buttery stroke, excellent small bump compliance, light, perfect amount of stiffness and flex!(yes its actually a good thing!), amazing machining, good clicks, good bolts, high quality graphics, easy to service.

The Bad: bumpers can move around on you from time to time.......

Overall:

This is the best fork money can buy, hands down. This thing grips like nobody's business, it is the most forgiving fork you can ride, where other forks will wash out or throw you over the bars, this thing picks you right back up and then goes faster! You will ride in complete disbelief at the things you can do, and/or get away with, it'll save your ass more times then you'll ever be able to count. And did i mention the grip? Idon't even remember what it feels like to wash the front end anymore, and i'm going twice as hard and twice as fast as before. There is simply no compromise on this fork, within 1 or 2 clicks of the stock recommended settings its as supple as you could ever want over the small chatter with out diving, plenty of mid stroke support that doesn't push the front end or wallow too deep in the travel, and an amazingly smooth bottom out that will never kick back. Don't waste your time with the garbage other companies are selling, get what works, you will NOT regret it.

As far as customer service Marzocchi, Manitou and Rockshox have always been great to deal with in the past, however with everything going down at Marz lately and Ronnie leaving i cant say it will ever be the same. Wouldn't bother with fox, first of all ... more »

If you look at the highlight Redbull clip, certainly appears he is going brakeless into the netting at extremely high speed. Shocking as it may sound, but he just might be telling the truth...

But minnar rode better than gee on the day. So it shouldn't have been geeman on the winners spot. That's racing. The winner wins.

Super easy! get it started with your finger nail and once you got a good grip it should peel off in one piece, any little bits that are left come off with rubbing alcohol.

Im with sspomer, mastic tape is the shit! Looks super clean, stays put, and it keeps everything nice and quiet.

would love to ride one for shits and grins, the current 26in version is definitely one of if not the best bike on the market right now, would love to see the 26in in carbon too that would be sick as hell!

Well its obviously a trance x given what the shock says and there's no doubt its a 29er so id say there's no speculation, the trance is a fantastic platform but id rather see a 650 version, i think that's where the whole trail bike thing should be going, Giant would know this if they weren't 3-4 years behind the times.
