i dont like the look of that head angle on the left, maybe a 24" on the front and 26" on the back would sort it, insted of the other way round

And why I got negative props, eh? I just said that Grossman (bike on the left) needs 24" on the front - there's 24" on the back, so it would make the head angle better. Some people can't think, I guess...

flag JonDcameraguy (Aug 18, 2008 at 0:02)
i dont think its missing spokes , i think its laced up like that , its real strong , you wrap 2 or 3 spokes together then put them into the rim. its like pretzel braiding or something like that? wheel chair guys do it , its strong as. just a biatch to actually do.
  • + 1
flag krissis (Sep 11, 2008 at 15:53)
there are many ways to lace up wheels, a standard crows foot or just to wire or weld the crosses in the spokes will improve the stength loads, snow flaking is beleaved by some to be, but i dont think so my self, it just looks really good.

Yeah but the bikes are met for DH, thats why it dosn't really matter, if it was for freeride the fork would definetly just snap out of the stear tube but its for dh.. thats why

flag scotty1 (Sep 4, 2008 at 21:26)
The air shock is supposed to kick in when the coil shock bottoms or is near bottoming. It adds a little extra travel, and also helps with rebound. I heard it was developed for bender so he wouldn't get hucked over the bars on hard landings.
