    So a 26 pound Ibis Mojo would then pedal like an 11 pound bike? :-k Sweet!

    I'm thinking of getting a Mojo SL. I hear it is good for XC and DH racing.:bang:

    Apparently CF is stronger than aluminium or at least that is what Ibis says. The damping properties comes from specifically engineered frame flex #-o

    So im hearing rumors Iron Horse wont be using the DW-link, But still hear that its going to be made, just not by Iron Horse... Does this also mean that after Iron Horse stops making the DW-link sunday, everyone will want a Sunday which may Raise their value? :?:

    Some of Dave Weagle's posts on mtbr:

    I do know this. I ain't selling mine any time soon. I love that bike.

    I also wouldn't let any of this dissuade me from buying an Iron Horse. Both my 6Point and my Sunday are great bikes, and for the first time in a long time, there aren't any new bikes out there tempting me away from what I'm riding now.

    More Sundays

    FYI, we got another 4 Sunday frames in today. These ones are painted black, and we got all sizes.

    I figure we need to keep Dino riled up.
