    I like the speckled paint job. What rear shock are you going to run on it? Coil or air?

    Sick. I have a BR with the DHX coil & it's pretty plush. In fact, my bike's been in your shop. Hi 5. Post that sucker up when she's built!

    I'll be putting the older frame in the classified after I get all the parts off it and put them on the new frame.

    I had a problem with installing the HammerSchmidt on there. I'll explain the issue in detail after I get the new bike is built up. There technically wasn't anything wrong with the frame. Its just the hammer is very picky.

    I put the 2008 frame in the classified section if anyone is interested.
