Nothin' wrong with that. I'm pretty sure everyone who's ever used Al Gore's interweb no knows what his favorite bike is though. Kidwoo, are you planning to race DH on your Enduro? Do you really think it can keep up with a purpose built DH bike?matt said:

Even if he was, he probably wouldn't be the first. Not calling anyone in particular out, just saying. Maybe the first openly gay pro DHer....matt said:

There's only one bike I'm ga ga about. The enduro. And that's the only one I've slathered praise all over too. You haven't heard one mention about that demo have you? Or the P.1 I own eh?
The reason I speak up about them is I also know more about them than most people here

and also back on subject, my shop has had a few problems with blow up cartridges...

Yup. I got this thing for the low BB setting and with an 8" fork, the headangle was 64 degrees. It rode like crap so I found an old 7" version to bring the front end down. I'm happy with it now.chooofoojoo said:
Not sure why they changed the headangle this year but it sucks with an 8" fork unless you run it in the high setting.

Just to be entirely clear, nothing I said in this thread was meant to be taken seriously.

Yeah but I bought it for the chainstays.Khemical said:
It's the only dh bike with sub 17" stays that I know of.
I knew I might have to do that before I bought the bike (and hence get an even lower bb......a good thing) but I was also curious to see what the 64deg headangle felt like.
Besides......some of their published numbers were never right on in the past anyway.

First specialized doesnt specialize in making forks, they basically just started making suspension and not one company gets stuff right the first time. you got to give specialized a break. there bikes are good and there suspension might not be the best but it will be good some day, when they get it right
