$1500 CADI have here a 2007 Rocky Mountain RMX! It was the last year they made the RMX and it was the last year Rocky Mountain hand built they're bikes!
Not much is orginal on the bike excepte for seat, rims, hubs, spoke and the the rear shock (Fox DHX 5.0)
The upgrades are the following:
Forks: 2010 Boxxer Teams with a rebuild in 2010 and 2011
Cranks: Raceface
Pedals: 1664 beaver traps
Brakes: Avid Code 5
Bars: Raceface atlas
Stem: Gravity
Head set: Hope
Derailure: Shimano saint

The bike is very well maintained (mechanic owned) and has the usual nics and chips from rocks and chain slap and tuned up every season.
I have all the receits from parts I bought including the bike its self
Price is negotiable.

Tech Tuesday - Avid Elixir Brake Pad Replacement
3mm does sound like they're including that back plate but another tip i've heard is if you take a dime and stick on the back plate beside the pad and if the the pads are thinner then a dime then you need to replace them ASAP

yes and no, if you put one shock infront of the other it world be 16 inches eye to eye correct?
but lets say you did a drop to flat and bottom out one shock so thats 8 inches of travel used, but if you had two shock side by side and you did the same drop to flat you would not bottom it out because you have to forms of resistance instead of one, so instead of 8 inches being used on one shock you'd have 4 inches of travel being used on BOTH shocks, so still 8 inches of travel is being used but you still have another 8 inches left from the shocks (4 inches of travel left on each shock). make sense?
so physically it is increasing the travel.

Fox Prototype Inverted DH fork - World Exclusive
Well if fox did make an inverted fork for the public it would be killer! inverted forks are much more reponsive, because if you think about it which moves easier? lowers moving up onto stantions or have your stantions move into your lowers (invertedly though) its less mass to move making the fork way more responsive

well if you have one shock it takes the entire load of an impact correct? so if you have two they'll each take part of the load. and if this is Benders new bike this might help him land the jaw drop in BC. but if not its just for show lol
