    i'd be interested in demoing a new 575... the seven would be fun too... they're using the same concentric axle pivot as trek and DW

    Can you XC race on a 575? :bang: I hear they can be built quite light.

    Money was no object for this guy, his 575 weighed in with pedals at 24lbs, 8 oz. pretty crazy for 5+ inch travel rig.

    Sure do! I'm already planning my Ti bolt kit, Carbon fiber DT shock, and matching carbon 5" fork, Carbon Zipp wheels, and handmade tires from genetically engineered rubber trees...

    In my dreams. No, seriously, it would just be really cool racing with a team for the support and comraderie. The deal on the bike would be nice to replace my creeky hardtail. But those ASRs/575s are HOT.

    I really need to sit down and read this whole thread when I get home but this sounds like a really cool opportunity....

    Neil, What if you are a beginner racer??? No experience but planning on hitting up mostly endurance type events??

    Same here.

    Unfortunately, although I'm sure the pricing is very good, it would be too costly to update my DH bike and my 4X bike (although I haven't actually raced 4X yet, but I plan to).

    Neil, I greatly appreciate the offer and opportunity, and if this was earlier in the year (before building up the M3), I would have been all over it. Thanks again!
