Mine went off like a shotgun landing a jump....air cartridge kind of exploded! Under warranty though,just wondered if this was a common fault? A long way to Ft Bill for 1 and a half runs!

Gambler 10 only comes with a RC2. basically an RC4 without tunable high speed compression and adjustable bottom out control.

The 20 has a van RC
and 10 has a van R

Best forks i've ever ridden. Super supple, loads of adjustment. Easy to set up. Only downside is they are a bit heavier than other options but I've never had arm pump since owning them. I loved them so much I kept them once I sold the gambler and put them on my new bike.

I'm just curious to know, how much do you guys think my gambler is worth? 2013 FOX 40 coil and DHX RC4 shock, shimano saint cranks and drivetrain, DT swiss wheels, easton havoc stem and bars (not pictured, I just ordered the bars), avid brakes (not sure which model). I just want to know if I got a good deal or not. It was an impulse buy while I was drunk on a couple pitchers of beer in whistler lol. The previous owner built the bike but only rode it a few times. Lost interest in downhill.

Bikes like these are the sort of bike no matter how much money you throw at them, you never get it back, it's probably worth about $3000 if you were trying to sell but probably double that has been spent on it

I paid $2300 CAD. He originally wanted $2600 but said he just wanted it gone. So I guess I got a fair deal? The rear shock was never ridden. The coil is brand new.
