Mistakes happen. He did not hear you correctly.
DT swiss / Stans kit you can see how they might sound the same right?

Not everyone uses the same level of detail as you or I.
Yes the Stans kit will work but it is not the DT Swiss kit made for the 5.1d.
I like to do things the cleanest possible way and I would want the DT Swiss kit myself. That's is if I had to do the conversion.

I was impressed with the obvious love of mtn biking and the wealth of knowledge from Jesse Brunell, Manager. Really helpful.

But my only criticism was that I was being steered towards an '08 Rocky Mountain Element 30 and never really clearified to me it was more of a XC bike, and that the suspension design was more of a hardtail with a cush than other FS bikes like the Trance X's. I found this out all later in my own research and decided the Element wasn't what I was looking for, which was more of a trail or AM suspension setup.

Sums up my first experience there when i went in looking for a certain hardtail, tried to be sold on a pretty beefy AM complete bike. Drove a mile or so to another shop and bought my 2nd choice of a frame an hour later. Not a complaint towards the shop, moreso the same employee I dealt with both times i've been in. Enthusiastic, but not listening to the customer.


To update was Randy aka Lovin touched upon a few posts back, Adrenaline has some $5 Maxxis tubeless strips that work quite well on 5.1 rims if you don't want to buy the complete tubeless kit. Next time i'm in the neighborhood i'm picking up a couple more and using it as my excuse to revisit/redeem the shop.

I have been buying from Adrenaline for many years, dealt with the owner when he was with Bike Source prior to Adrenaline. Have always had a good experience with them.

I have family in town and have had a very long week. I walked into Adrenaline today and I must have looked like hell, cause the manager offered me a cold one while I shot the chit with them. Could not have been better timing for me. Thanks Adrenaline, you made a crappy week a bit better for me!

I would just like to give a shout out to the fellas down at Adrenaline Bikes for being some of the friendliest, most helpful guys I have ever met at a bike shop. Thanks!

Ditto. Got my Yeti 575 build with 2010 150mm Fox Talas 15QR from them. I do spread around my cash to many bike shops, but this is on my short list.
