Re: The Orange 5 - I've got a similar "experiment" going on with an 06 Enduro with CCDB & Domains. Domains limited to 160mm; are your totems reduced travel too?
I'd like to give it a bash with totems so the adjustability of the front is closer to the back (and they look ****in hardcore 🙂 ), but fear sticking longer than warranteed forks on.
If they are limited:
1 How?
2 Cost to do it?
3 Are you just braver than me?
P.S.
Am delighted to know someone's even more of a tard than I am at using this forum 
1 How?

How is easy - you send the Totem fork to TF Tuned and they then custom cut the internal damping rod to make it a 160mm fork rather than a 180mm fork.
Cost is about £120 I believe and is irreversable.
Looks like he is a brave chap as those Totems look to be 180mm, but I could be wrong.
yeh im a retard 😆 cheers rob, i'll keep trying tho, can't understand it as the tried doing what geetee just said and even found the copy location clicked it, put in the img box , all the link came up in the box, thought this is it! then when i pressed post nothing came up! what! nevermind, the orange is actually a friends bike but the totems are 180's, with the ccdb aswell make it well hardcore! 😀
Shaggy you have my sympathies - it's ****ing frustrating when you can't get it to work.
No idea what's going on for you. Are you overwriting/deleting the initial http:// that appears? If not that might be causing the problems.
£120! Good Lord.
Might just stick with what I've got as I've invested/squandered enough on it already I reckon and I'm unlikely to find a set of Totems anywhere near as low as the price I paid for the Domains.
I sold my nearly new set for £300 last month Rob. Maybe you could find a set on eBay?
TBH the Fox 36s are as good and more versatile, being consdierably lighter. I'd only recommend the conversion if you didn't already have a 160mm fork but had a set of Totems.
Already got 36 talas forks for AM types rides - got the domains for uplift days.
Am considering keeping them on for everything mind and just struggling on climbs 🙂
geetee, did i buy them forks from you, not the pair thats on the five, i bought a pair about 3week ago on ebay for £300, 2009 coil pair mint condition, steerer tube was a bit small so i faced the headtube down a bit, havent ridden them yet cos i'v naft my knee ligement, but should be taken them to alps in 2 week! 8)
How funny if you did - winning bidder was Catrin5675. Is that you?
oh no it wer'nt me then, i bought some black 2009 coil totems, immaculate! can't believe how cheap you can buy these now on ebay considering they cost nearly a grand.
they are cheap cos they are shyte........................get yourself a rigid 29r..........u soft shyte........ 8)
get yer sen to thalps wi us ton then,.... on yer rigid 29r.... show them totem boys how hardcore you are! 😆
shag, you and dhd will be laid up crumped by the 2nd day........... 😉
