Pinkbike Product Picks
Pretty sure Sheppards do, being pretty big though they tend to be a bit more difficult with special orders. They do shimano as well so any bike shop will have an account with them.

Prototype SRAM BlackBox Derailleur and BoXXer Damper
I don't really ride DH myself, but that seems like the way to go. I think 150mm hubs should have 6/7sp freehub bodies, and 7sp 11-28 cassettes with 10sp spacing. That way you could use standard 10sp shifters and derailleur with the lower cogs limited off.

DT Swiss Carbon Rim Prototype and 20mm Spline One Wheels?
While it would be nice to see more reviews of these cheap carbon rims, the problem is that there are just so many of them and I doubt the production would be consistent, so there would be no guarantee that the rims they review would be the sam eas the rims that we buy.

e*13 Prototype Chain Rings - First Look
I know of plenty of people who use an XX1 crankset and chainring on 1x10 setups to improve chain retention and remove the need for an upper guide. The 10 speed chain being a bit wider fits easily onto the chainring, just not quite as snug as the 11 speed chain. They all seem happy with it though.

Tech Tuesday – Five Minute Wheel True
I don't true wheels myself, but if you're truing a wheel it pays to put a tyre on and inflate it every now and then. The mechanic at my LBS said that if you true the wheel completely and then put the tyre on it can release some tension in the spokes and put the wheel out of true again.
