Looking good. Post pics when you get the shiver on. It's one of the smoothest forks ever.

I wont be getting the shiver, my dad shut me down, again. He told me to save my money, so I am going to "save it, for a new fork" once I break mine even more, haha.

Any tips on fork and shock?

I was thinking a DHX 5.0 coil, and noy sure withthe fork.

Maybe an 09 dorado, or a 888?

Get a used 888 RC or RC2X and a DHX5.0. Like I already said wait till fox announces the new 09' shock then prices will go down.

thanks man. The design was taken by brodie in 2004/05, under the diablo. It is the same frame, other then the linkage plates. I prefer this frame over that one, beacause of the super durable anodized linkage plates, and the fact that craftworks nolonger makes this bike. Besides, with only like..... 4 left in North america, and not many in Austraillia... I beleive that makes this frame even better, because I can actually say that I am riding somthing different then ANYPNE else.

i just think there are lighter but just as durable frames out there that feel the same if not better and can be more fun.
