    1998 Salsa Ala Carte and 2002 Brodie Kinetic

    Followed the guy on the Norco down a trail, tried a stepdown jump with a decent gap for the very first time today, came a little short and touched down hard. Pretty noisy when that fork bottoms out! 😄

    Wheels are built. Colours aside, the machined dropouts of the forks work well with the Hügi hub. Other than that I will be changing the dropper post for a Thomson Elite post, as I am not using the dropper post much. Cranks will be changed for black XT ones + SG-X 46t chainring...
