Good point. Still, they could just press different dropouts on based on the desired wheel size, then use the same stanchions, uppers, and most of the internals. Probably would still save them on stocking and production.

I wonder if they are doing this to cut down on the number of forks they are carrying. I bet you can swap an internal spacer and make this fork work for 26, 27.5, 29. If so, would definitely make production and stocking easier on them. You gotta be thinking they wish they had a 20 mm thru axle for this beast too.

I thought it was a decent movie, good to watch once. I miss Clay's older stuff, Hypnosis is still my favourite all time bike video to this day. I really wished it focused more on the riding and less on the riding 'scene'.

I really like my new 888 EVO Ti's, but I would recommend others hold off until springs are easier to buy. As it stands now, if you don't want to run the stock springs, good luck!

I looked at one of these before I bought a new frame this year. I think they have promise, a little work to be done yet. The head angle was steep (66 degrees for DH, really?), they didn't have a large size big enough, and the bb was high. If they fixed those three things, I would have gone for it for sure, the pricing was super attractive. I think its a decent bike for a beginner. If they sort out the geometry, I'll look at one when my current DH frame needs replacing.
