Ya Theyre great guys. I agree they were early when I order my 450 in 2012 but my covert was months late. It's not them I'm worried about its transition. With a new model, production problems and changes etc could cause problems. I know thats significantly less likely with an aluminum bike than a carbon bike but still.
Before I ordered my 450 I actually had a bid in for a nukeproof pulse pro that I placed in February, and by April Curtis wasn't happy that it didn't come so he offered me the 450 instead. Id have to say that much more of a manufacturer problem than a supplier problem. But like I said, once I go in again I'll shoot you a message and update you if anything has changed.
Anyone running an air shock like a CCDB Air or Vivid Air? Or is the ramp up at the end of travel too great causing the shock not to use all it's stroke?
