Thank you very much :-)

I think my bank would like me to give the Scott Nude shock a chance hehe but it annoys me with the bottle. A new crankset, maybe the Sram X.X. would be nice and then a 100mm fork - think this will make the bike feels more balanced.

A couple of pictures:

You dont need a new fork just to use 100mm..

The new SID can be changed internally to 100mm easily...

Yeah.. XX crank would be awesome :D

just did some research on the xx crankset and it seems like the BCD is a bit odd and sram only offering 39/26 and 42/28 chainring combinations. I have to wait and see when there is more information - I would prefer a crankset with BCD 64/104 so maybe I should try the Noir Redwin just to stay in the "family" :-)

Thanks ww4 - bike feels good.

Hello :-)

i changes tires alot depending on the conditions so I don't wanna mess tubeless - latex innertubes gives pretty much the same "tubeless" feeling. Could probably save some weight but innertubes are much easier hehe - yes okay, I'M LAZY :-)

Thanks for the info - how do you like the RP23 shock compared to the nude shock?

sorry but I have never been a fan of AC hubs - especially after the bearings in the front wheel fell out while riding hehe.
