2000 Pounds is still a sick deal for that bike. Just a new rear wheel and a wash. good to go.

I swear they said they would never wear them? I think the quote was "the day I wear a next brace is the day I stop riding"
I may be wrong But I am pretty thats what one of the athertons said.

Only the Factory series will have the coating, and it has now been added to the FLOAT RP23, DHX Air and DHX RC4 rear shocks, including portions of the air sleeves (RC4 is shaft only).
