Nice. The bike isn't bad, either.

Very nicely done rear brake lever, and nicely done rear linkage. I like how the linkage pivot on the frame is now welded instead of the bolted flanges. Much less hassle to disassemble.

They had a ton of preload wound into that shock.

Very nice.

Heh!

The shock is interesting for a couple reasons. It looks really long for one, meaning that in order to run a normal spring the body is threaded a long way, the rebound adjustment methodology has changed (no more plastic knob), and the upper mount at least uses a captive nut.

It will be good to see what the new cylinder / PV arrangement is, and how they resolve the airbox issue. I can hardly wait for January!

Met Evan from Solid Performance at the Hammer Run. Nice guy.

Yes, emailed him for a quote, pics of fun in Italy explain why no reply.
