yah i think i might go with a boxxer i found a killer deal with them through one of my sponsors so i think that might be the way to go or if i find a better deal on a 40 haha i am so confused

for real bro, you can't go wrong with either. both are race prooven. and if you're that kind of "sundays and v10s are the best frame because hill and peat ride them" then that logic sells you on the 40 and wc as well because thats all pros use (and maybe a boxxer team here and there)

I wouldn't see the point in changing anything on that bike but the brakes. As everything there looks fine to me.

Titanium bolt sets, lighter pedals, lighter bash guard, like something much thinner and smaller. Maxxis larsen tires. Carbon fiber seat post, i forgot the pic but if youv got a front derailer, drop it.

If your looking at cutting down weight dont get an Avy fork.

Get the Boxxer (integrated or 50mm Thomson Elite Stem), 823 and go tubeless, Easton Monkey Light or Monkey Bars, Ti spring, X.0. or the cheap Shimano road stuff, Dura Ace cassette, Gamut or LG1 guide and you have to lose the crank set, think Middleburn RS7 on FSA Isis BB, Thomson Masterpiece post with an SLR, Wellgo MG-1.

Your bike really isn't that bad, if something breaks then go for it. Although sounds like you have a bunch of cash burning a hole in your pocket. I'd splurge on the bike parts too.

seriously i love mine they are a little on the heavy side but i find them indistructable. what happened to yours?

Honestly man if you are going to replace anything on your bike, replace the crankset please! I personaly will never ride a truvative (hussefelt) crank again becasue of these 2 reasons:

1: they fall off! (honestly)
2: They bend!

To lighten it up id go with a raceface atlas, they are light and strong, and along with the diabolous they are the only crank thats machined in BC!
