Not something you would do / build usually, but for those events it kinda makes sense. DHX RC4 & Float is a weird combo though.

yeah the fork / shock combo is what caught my eye. nice unusual custom build :thumbup:

why u say it's a weird combo Crow? I'm asking cos i'm not familiar with Fox shocks and forks (even though I have an RC4 lying around collection dust)

well, not so much a weird combo, just strange to see a burly coil shock on a trance. that caught my eye. kinda makes sense though.

 

why o why can't we have regular superD events here :thumbdown:

 

speaking of which - who's up for a western cape all mountain show and tell / "meat" and greet? maybe we hit up nitida's DS course, or Dirtopia's 4x track or Contermanskloof or Tokai - have a lekker ride, drool over everyone's sexy bikes and slap a chop on the braai afterwards?

1. Coil / Air combo is difficult to balance the bike. They have completely different riding characteristics.

2. DH shock, but trail Fork...doesn't make sense. I'm sure (in theory) that that fork will be better mated to a DHX Air. Or at least go Vanilla with that shock. But hey...that's in theory!

Wes: u like read my mind, especially about something at Nitida. I'm still very surprised we havent yet managed to have some sorta event at Nitida yet. DS is the shiz!

Problem is, I don't think we can braai at Nitida, but nothing's stopping us from doing some runs and grabbing a brekkie or coffee afterwards :thumbup:

 

Now for the when...?
