Looks good dude. Hopefully I'll have a DH bike soon so we can ride before the Double Down!

Looks good dude, I'm digging the red and gold.

Nope, the Fury is on the shopping block like everything else. I built it and rode it a few times but it must go away. It's posted on my buy/sell page.

I worked for CSG until the end of December, that's why I am liquidating all my bikes now. Need to move on.

The goal weight is 35 lbs.

Just let me know dude.

Wait until it is done!

The RO is their new "Race One" DH brake. Definitely strong enough, the RX lever keeps the weight down. If I was going to ride any Shimano brake for DH, I would wait for Saint Plus which comes out this Spring. I love XT and XTR, I just don't think they're strong enough for DH and the current Saint's are just so damn heavy. The fork is a 2012 88 EVO Ti V2 with custom decals. It's amazing so far.

Thanks dude. Still waiting on my new wheels and a DB Air for the back. Looking forward to shaving off another 5 lbs.

It's an RX lever with an RO caliper. So far, so good. The FCS is a nice feature, I haven't installed that option on my One's yet but will be soon. Amazing brakes.

The Elka feels great, wish it was mine. I was just borrowing for the day however, I'm waiting on a DB Air which should be here in January. I'll be riding it with a Fox for the next few weeks, should be good.
