I'll post during build-time. BTW - I bought the rear shock which is RS deluxe - with only damper control and no other adjustments for 160$ from Canada. It fits in - like a charm. But at Friday I found that CRC is selling Scott Octane frame equipped with RS Super Deluxe for 180 quids. I...

Hi guys! I'm now a happy owner of fully rebuilt linkage system with custom alloy parts and roller bearings from GT. I bought Rock Shox Deluxe from Canada. and now waiting for last batch of parts for my LTS and my old Klein, which was lucky enough to obtain a RS SID SL from 2002 King...

I just rebuilt the suspension using freshly manufactured parts. Everything seems fine. I also got a reworked rear disk brake adaptor to be compatible with HONe rear hub. I need only to make a hole in the frame and tap a thread to fix it. Now I'm waiting for my order from CRC with fox...

Finally given all the parts which have to be machined to a professionals. they will be doing it until end of may. Now I have a dillema - I have a red- silver frame and now I'm thinking about color of the frame. I'm thinking that white frame + all black components and black fork is OK...

full black I have a color dilemma now as well =(

Same in Russia man. On russian local forums it's like - "Go buy a new hardatil from taiwan instead of rebuilding your old crap..."

This is below zero man. Totally cool... Wow.

Nice Kona. I see the top crown is a little overtightened - Be careful!

Great bike! I'm on the way to getting mine finished (in a month i hope).
