$850 USDHi thanks for looking,
This is an 08' I think. I put a fox shock with lockout on the rear (its the talas model so you can reduce the travel by 1/2 inch). Instaled a motion control damper cartridge with external lockout in the PIKE. I dont like cluttered bars so I rigged a little peice of plastic to keep the damper closed with out the handlebar mounted lever. I found that with the motion control engaged you can tune the sensitivity of the fork by using the gate adjustment. I also upgraded the spring in the fork from a medium to a heavy. I am 165lbs and this set up is spot on for me. Some raceface x type cranks made a huge difference in power transfer over the stock cranks. 60mm truvativ stem that holds some kore 29 inch bars. I will include the original shock, a shock pump and an extra set of brake pads pads.
I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
Thanks for your interest!
Ben

I dont get it... why would anybody change such perfection?
if only I could find a bike that is that simple...I dont think I need all 3.5 inches of travel though. 3.5 is just too much you know?
HAAAAAAAA ha
