I got a good deal on a 327 spicy 650b. And have been going about bringing it up to spec.
Just the rear shock and forks to go.
Forks wise I need talking out of buying manitou mattocks, as a pike would seem to be the sensible option.
The manitou gets a great review, and I like the extra adjustability. Both are available for a similar price with discounts. What’s the word on reliability? I’m assuming rock shox warrenty is likely to be a lot better, and did I read right that the damper has a 200 hr service interval!?
I like to service my own forks, the manitou looks like this would be more possible on…
Rear shock wise, I’m 90% decided on a ccdb inline, again re the adjustment and having been impressed by my cane creek coil in the past.
