    Totally agree, never understood why companies never included an adjusted headangle. Seems pretty simple and can make a world of difference.

    Knowing you Nancy I am sure you will get it once available. ;)

    Adjustable HA? Hmmmm:-k .... Why not? Wish I had a bike with an adjustable HA :rolleyes:

    DW? Really? I think it is more like the Maestro then the DW, lets see the schematics on paper as well as the patents. :-({|=:drunk:

    Make the HA adjustable like a camber plate on a car.

    "EVO" is sooooo overused... just like "delights" when it comes to food ads

    If you draw a line through the two pivots on a DW lower link, the line will be almost parallel to the ground. If you do the same line on the VPP, the line will be sloping down at almost a 45 degree angle.

    You got to love It! Nice forward thinking and always improving. correct me if I'm wrong but I dont remember if it was a uzzi or 951 that Jeff gave to the cane creek guys with the evo head tube, at sea otter the same day the uzzi and 951 were realesed I think it was a 951 evo though.

    I'm going to wait till they come out with the 909. Everyone knows the 909 is better then the 951.

    Adrian, per Neil at this point this frame is still a one off for the CRC WC racers...No idea how much it weighs as a production bike cause it's not a production bike.

    Per Neil it's not available anytime soon...Steber makes these bikes for his WC racers. CRC put this frame up to show it's HOTNESS off (that's why it's got the CRC logos on the photo)

    hhhhmmmmmmm 951 or Flatline world cup?????????

    I am probably gonna get roosted for this.......but I find it funny how people always have to get the latest and greatest frame when it comes out when they still can only ride their current bike half descent.

    I am not saying I would not love to have one but I am still slow as hell on a 6 inch bike let alone a world cup dh. That is one damn sexy bike though!!!!


    I think Ill name my next bike the 714!

    Have you ever installed an offset reducer headset? It's a huge PITA to get everything lined up *just* right. That, and removing deep insertion 1.5 headsets can suck, even if they're prepped well. I'd WAY rather have the adjustability built in. Besides, there are a decent number of bikes with a similar setup out there, and I've never head anyone complain about them.
