Such information is usually kept under very tight wraps until the company wants to release the information at the opportune time. Next time I run into Cam Zink at a bar I'll try asking. haha

Did you try the Fox guide? That's what I used and it seems to have worked well so far.

Heck ya joined the club as of today! Looking forward to shred the AL Comp soooon! Placed my order for the June 28th availability, anyone else waiting on that date??

I have an order in from availability on a Medium aL comp from May 31...spoke with YT recently. Apparently one of the suppliers (or something of the sort) messed up an order which delayed the process. So they told me it should ship (as of a week ago) in 2-3 weeks.

but ya...still waiting. Can't wait to get this thing to trestle bike park

Thats crazy, I was speaking with JM when I ordered my bike. He said at the time "FYI the june 28th might be the first week of July. The boat left a little later than expected."
Sounds like we might be receiving bikes at a similar time..

Hi guys, another poll !

Need a majority opinion from this forum.

Do you consider this a case for a warranty claim? I can see cracks near the shock mount area of the seatstay and the underside is starting to flake although this could be paint. Anyone else had this problem on their frame? Spoken to YT service desk and they reckon no fatigue although I'm dubious with their assessment. They also said you should be changing the frameset bearings annually even if you only ride 2 weeks a year in bike parks/alpine riding !! I don't see this mentioned anywhere in the owners manual.

Anyone tried runnin the Cappy with a dual crown fork? The SB6 seems to handle it and the Delerium is designed for it? Apple to orange to pear, I know. Just curious what PB thinks. Cheers!

Yes, plastic guard on and I'm not so sure what caused it. I'm guessing it was either a rock strike or the bike bounced into a tree or something. I don't know how long I've been riding it like this.

Yea they release new version of existing models in Jan. But new models entirely (eg when capra and jeffsy 29 were launched) were a few months later in the year - March/April.

Looking for some clarification. If my Capra has a HTA of 65 with a 170mm fork, would the HTA change to 65.5 with a 160mm fork?

Just wanting to see if my assumption is correct.
