bling bling. That looks sweeeeet. BTW as to my old wonderings on lockout on your Revelation XX. I bought a RS Reba, now I know why it is good to have a lockout on air sprung RS forks... it bobs as fuck!!! Coil please!

Thanks man.
If your Reba are dual air just play with the pressures....or switch to Fox

so, have you managed to take this beauty under 9kg? Looks not so far from it

way above, but not bothered. see the spec and info on the side.

The 650b is making this bike look FAST. Very good job you did there, better than the 69 setup you had before. Any big changes in how it feels, handles, rides?

The bike does feel a bit faster. RaRa 2.25 are skinnier and lighter to my previous tires and that also transfers into better acceleration. The BB height increases slightly with 650b on but the ride is comfortable and handling is just as I would expect.

Another change of fork?

Bikes looking really nice!

Thanks. I needed the RLC version to control the compression and lock out force.
