Yeah, the Max Backbones were probably better for Boxxer duty. The needle bearings and aftermarket links really transform these frames.I can't remember if I've posted in this thread already - I had a '98 extreme with the Judy XL for years and it's what got me into the DH/FR scene. I don't recall ever seeing one of the Mountain Speed link kits before, but I must have known about them back in the day. I did have the BETD long travel link and their bearing kit. It made a world of difference. I snapped many shock bolts though and the headtube was starting to oval from the Boxxers it ended up with.
