It does. I will be feverishly building this afternoon….I dont think I will leave the club for a longtime*.

*Until boyhora arrives and removes my tackle, life and any interests/money I have ;(

If he does sell it, I want first dibs!

Nearly bought one a year or so ago after having a blast out in the Alps. Got myself an Intense Slopestyle instead though!

I'll be feverishly building tomorrow. Might get some pics up later this weekend. Still trying to get some decent travel adjust forks for it, my Z1 SL's will have to do for now…

I personally think your SL's will be perfect for it. heihei, you know I owe you pints.

Maybe… just fancied being able to set forks at 120mm for xc and still have 160mm available for gnarly stuff. Fox tala 36's don't come cheap though it seems…

medium one for sale on descent world frame only….

Mine was cheaper- I love you heihei man

Mine handles terribly with 160mm 36s. Much better on 130mm.

Hmmm – so maybe Pikes or Rev's are the way to go. Choices choices….

SL's first. Then drop the air or wind down

I couldn't help myself, its like someone else had control of my credit card!!! Great deal on 2010 Pike 454's obtained, adjustable coil sprung loveliness on its way….

I know a shop in Ireland that has a large frame in trans red. I could pass on the contact details if you wish.

I leave my AM SLs in 160mm mode all the time on my 4X. Handles brilliantly.

Hijacking I know but if anyone wants similar handling/geo to the 4x and is short on cash heres an option. I did it and it rocks…

Take one cheap old 2005-6 Santa Cruz Heckler and put a shorter 190 x 50mm shock on it rather than the standard 200 x 57mm.

You end up with 5" of travel. BB at 12.8 and a head angle of 66-67 with 140mm RS Revs.

Hora – Congratulations! What a great price… you b@stard 😉 Glad you managed to get back in the club without you having to steal mine.

I've started a new thread- it came in this afternoon from Spitalfields. On the psi- I'm reckon 160 for a 95kg rider with 25% sag?

Ps. I love you heihei 😉

See here: http://www.santacruzbikes.co.uk/bicycles/blur4x.html under shock set-up guide. Assuming it's got a Fox shock on it 160psi would suit a 72kg rider. I'm ~95kg with a big breakfast in me, more with clothes & Camelbak the SC recommendation for me is ~210psi. I run mine at ~200psi and it's good. Much lower than that and it's too wallowy.

Ah! I was working towards 25& sag- I forget its a different linkage/frame 😳 thank you

Just checked. Mine was £1,152 (hearing-aid-beige paint + RP23

Never heard that comparison before! eh….pardon. 😕

Still like the sand-beige one of yours. Looks mint.

I'll be feverishly rebuilding mine this weekend. Another new set of bearings.

The Mighty Higs quit moaning, great sex with a woman isnt free either 😆

Great sex with a woman also doesn't:
take all afternoon
require a special tool
cost £30 a time

True, otherwise it would be 5mins and a few barcadi breezers. Sorted.
