    Haha, I just might be a bit upset if it turns out Santa Cruz have the same frames as Apollo bikes....

    Easy, mount vision, Whyte 120. Although that's not really fair, as they are both John Whyte bikes. Whyte is comissioned by Marin.

  • I know they share DNA, that's why it was easy for me to pick those bikes

    Will do more next week, perhaps hardtails to make it a bit more challenging.

    somebdy should set the bars up straight on that Whyte. They're rotated a little to the left.

    Anyone what type of system I have on my Cove Shocker?? I think it's blackmagic, but it's probaby a DW Link.

    Something that heavy, and that soft shouldn't pedal that well out of bends, it's day and night better than the FSR rear I had on my A-Line, it felt like I had 14ft of lack chain on that, it would jerk and buck over high speed impacts and bottom out on big stuff whatever spring rate or rebound setting I used.

    Having a look at pictures on the internet, it looks sort of similar to the system that Banshee uses VF4B or something, or...I did read something on their website about how for bigger hitting bikes they use a "Turner Style system" so it could be that as well. :wink:

    Turner style could mean owt lol - the 5 spot has had the FSR, then seatstay pivot (made no difference apparently - so why they paid for the FSR license I will never know), now the DW link.
