Review: Specialized’s New Epic 8 - All the Speed You Need
@btjenki: the orbea oiz is 3.9lb inc shock, but I will note that it doesn't have in frame storage, and does include cable tourism, which are some significant drawbacks.

DVO lowers are made by Suntour (if I recall correctly). Not sure who makes Manitou, but very few brands make their own lowers.

I run the 16 degree SQLabs on my hardtail, and 12 degree on my enduro bike. I'm even tempted to try the Answer 20/20s. Would never go back. I think everyone needs to try more sweep on their bars.
