I have a small stock of side loaders. The scalpel needs one as well.

I am 175cm and have a medium carbon 2 fsi on order. It should be here on the 22nd less than 2 weeks away. Can't wait! It does have a longer reach than the f29 but they did something with the front end to run a shorter stem then was previously possibly on the lefty. I can take all the measurements you guys want when it gets here. The fsi is taking the place of my small breezer cloud 9 which is limiting me on the downhills because of the 72 degree ha...

I would like to know when they will revamp the scalpel to have the improvements that the fsi does.

I agree. They'll probably shorten the head tube, and put the new fork on in 2016

I know this isn't an FSi post but I'll be picking up my new Scalpel Team on Friday. The shop (NP Bikeshop in CA) also told me they have FSi's in stock. I'll have to let you know how the sizing lays out.

I really want to run this wheelset on my 2014 F29 Carbon 2, but according to the Mavic website it's only available with the Supermax hub. Is the Supermax hub backwards compatible with a standard Lefty spindle? Is this bike running an adapter for the brake caliper? Apologies for the barrage of questions, I'm just ready to drop some weight.

The FSis look great in person, I saw a few people running them at a race two weeks ago.

Supermax and Lefty 2.0 like it is on the bike above is the same mounting. Just doesn't work for old Lefty. An old Leftywheel is working with a different adapter for the brakecaliper but not as stiff as with the new hub.
