Yeah but this one has the custom rocker links and a much nicer build & paintjob,also they sell Kowa forks on their online shopWink .Pretty sweet since Kowa forks are hard to get out side Japan,those forks are pretty good priced and not overpriced like BOS,Manitou(Dorado) & Fox.Plus you get standard the Kashima coating:Cool :

Well since my bike made it on the first page, thanks by the way, I figured it would be ok to post my own up again with the upgrades. First 2 are just of the "old" setup but they are the best pics I have ever taken of a bike before (which isn't saying much). Last pic is the final build (only tires may change) with Ti spring and Elixir CR Carbons.

Brakes are more of a preference and the Elixirs worked great for me last season so I decided to stick with them.
