Thanks for the offer
bu the fame is already in the mail

 The frame ships with a derailleur hanger so you can run gears also So I got that covered

 Okay, great ! I hope the manitou will be the best fork you've ever ridden ^^

 Well It kinda is. Already have it. It's mega plush with a really noticeable range of adjustments. The finish is really high quality. And it's pretty stiff cause of the 20mma axle.

 so, your going geared? damn you, i wanted you to feel my pain of the wheel sliding around with a SS setup.

what i do is cut up small slivers of soda can and jam it in between my dropout and axle to keep it from sliding forward. its a pain in the ass, but it works.

 Hmm, I have a nut and bolt axle, and also a pair of tightening washers. Like so i.imgur.com/UBBbZLb.jpg

I'll see if it slips.

 well, if you have gears, you can just slam the axle in the dropout and it will never slip (what i was sort of getting at earlier, you use the R der as a tensioner).

with SS, its pretty much impossible to have it perfectly slammed in the drop out. im sure you could get it close with a half link, but it would still slip. i had issues with this on my void when i had it back in the day.
