Thanks guys. will probably ask the same question over a couple times before deciding on one. Mainly because I will forget..... But those Chitons look good, defo with CCDBA on them, and that cheap. And just remembered, main preference goes to 650b, as it is all the #enduro rage right now, but 26" has a very special place in my heart still.

The balance has the ability to run 26 in 'park mode' which may be perfect for if your still wanting to ride DH a fair amount.

Hopefully buying one end of marchish

I thought his Ragley got stolen? Did he get it back?

I'm not sure, but he still seems to has it and he is pricing it more than his Status?

Probably because the spec of the status is pretty piss poor in comparison to the ragley if we ignore frames and suspension. (Which are about par)

Pretty much. And it's been used more, has a used fork, etc, etc.

Using the first on my GT. What can I say, they do the job and aren't shite quality?

I'm happy with them.

Yes. Will probably get the headset at some point soon too as it's noticeable but not quite slack enough yet for my liking.

If your getting offset bushings, get the burgtec ones. The offset bushings ones are crap. Soft brass rounds over and makes it impossible to remove from shocks. Works components headset is the bs kneees though and will actually make a difference you can notice.

I have had some from offsetbushings.com on several bikes and it only works if you put it a place there is no rotation.
