Condition:
1. Purchased in August/2016

4. Cane Creek 100 crown race installed
5. Clean lower leg in a great condition. Only a few chain rubs from the front brake and the mud guard
6. Includes two tokens
7. Two tiny nicks on Kashima coats. One in the left and One in the right sanction. Both of them run smooth with your finger.
I checked more than one LBS to patch them before listing this, but I was told that they are too small to fix and not even near the seals. It is not needed because there would be no performance degrades other than cosmetic issue.
- The left one is 3" above the seal. Please see the photo for the size.
- The right one is 4" above the seal. The right one is even smaller and not that visible.

29ers topping five inches of travel can comfortably handle some pretty impressive terrain at speed, but they're hampered by floppy steering when techy or steep trails make for low speeds.
FOX Racing Shox's 34 Float 29 140 3Pos-Adj Fit4 Fork with 51mm of rake helps bridge the divide between high-speed, high-travel abandon and the times when discretion -- or unfortunate gradients -- dictate the pace.
A fork with 51mm of rake decreases the bike's trail, which results in less "dead" space between the steering axis and the hub. The design is an attempt to offset the floppy, low-speed steering issues that arise from the longer trails produced by taller wheels and slack geometries, so handling stays 29er-sharp at all speeds, whether climbing, ripping, or navigating switchbacks and tricky terrain.
Instead of the Climb, Trail, and Descend settings of CTD, the new 3-position Fit4 system toggles between the more descriptive Firm, Medium, and Open settings. While this change may read like an exercise in semantics, it actually entails a radical realignment of the 34 Float's capabilities to make sure the fork rides high for quick, controlled recovery during everything from big, square hits to successive, small impacts. The most welcome change is that Fit4 migrates the adjustable sub settings from CTD's median Trail mode to the new Open setting. Open encompasses the range once divided between Descend and Trail in order to take full advantage of the fork's high-riding tendencies, combining better small-bump compliance with more confident tracking across successive impacts and rough terrain. The Medium setting is much firmer now, handling duties ranging from rooty trails to climbing, and the Firm setting is now largely relegated to fast hardpack and fire road transitions.
