Damn! You guys are ruthless!

I've read this thread several times through and can't seem to find anywhere in which BJ said the A-C was higher on the Fox 40. A DC fork's stanchion length has nothing to do with A-C really. It's obvious the DH40 might be taller than the 888 in that it is made to accomodate a larger stack height?

Some of you tards need to take reading comprehension classes. BJ doesn't say once that the A-C is higher. He just said the fork seemed taller, so WTF? I don't really give a crap about BJ, but man, some of you jerks really enjoy jumping on the beat up BJ bandwagon too often. Grow up.
im tooo young to grow upppppp :D
 
size if your demo

I was wondering if your demo bike is a medium. I have one on order, a medium, and I'm about five-nine-and-a-half to five ten. I'm pretty sure the medium will be perfect, I was just wondering what size your demo is and how tall are you. Thanks for your time.

yeah

all depends,
Are you still growing? BTW you might not get that bike for at least 2 months, or maybe an 06 model if you are on the west coast. One of the smart things specialized did with the bike is the titanium spring offer. The bike comes with a steel spring but you get to send in a card for a titanium spring with the weight of your choice (i.e. 400,450,500). So choose soley on size. I personally have always liked bigger bikes and am 5'11" so i would say you should go with the medium, but if you growing, consider a large. Demo 9 frames are also proportionally related so go try a M and L demo and eye the difference. Hope you enjoy!
