bike park season is nearly over where I am. Instead of a service for my Rockshox Kage I might buy a new vivid.... is this too cheap:..?

I can't comment on the seller, but thats a shock that could be up to 7 years old IIRC, and its an R2 which I think is probably OE only as the aftermarket was R2C.... so that price while cheap isn't crazy. Probably found in a factory somewhere.

Should be fine. I've had Sram cassettes from these guys before and they're spot on, decently cheap and arrived quite quickly

Does an R2 even exist? Would be odd to have dual rebound adjustments with no compression adjustment and that one has the blue dial as it ought to.

I've used cyclingdeal for Novatec hubs and they turned up and worked great .
