Session = 7/10 Seat angle is whack. remember "the angle of the dangle is directly proportional to the heat of the meat"

Aurum: 8/10. Please remove all the colour matched plastic bull shite, its going to scuff the shit out of your paint. 3M it instead. What cranks are those?

8/10 for the Session. A new rear shock and more appropriate seat angle, would be my recommendation.

As for the Norco, hard to say but 8.5/10. Needs new cranks, handlebars looks tilted too far back for my liking. Other than that, maybe a spring bearing and Ti?

I am suprised you did not comment on the boxxer fork I thought you did not like them? I have also taken your advice and am looking into a new fork and the RV1 is now on my list but we will see what I get.

On the Aurum I'd suggest de-badging the wheels. I did this on my Session and it makes it looks much, much better. Also you could take off the plastic protectors and put on 3M tape as mentioned before.

Don't bother. Yours look good, just the way they are.

Sorry, not the best pic, but I'm away at school right now so that'll have to do. Pics of rims with stickers can be seen on my profile.

ajax-ripper I already had it rated on here, I was posting for someone who asked me a question about the wheels.
