Yep, that's a big bike! Pretty too. I've heard good stuff about the new Suntour forks, but serviceability kinda scares me sometimes. Half the time when I call Suntour for parts on their more expensive stuff, they don't exist. I believe they're focusing on changing that though.

Thanks.

Current build is

2014 sight frame

Durolux r2c2 fork set to 160mm

Cane creek dbair cs

9point8 fall line 150mm with wolftooth ReMote

Zee brakes with 203/180 rotors

E.thirteen trsr carbon crankset

Absolute black 30t oval

Xt 11-46 cassette

Xtr m9000 shifter and derailleur

Nobl tr38 carbon hoops

I9 torch hubs

Maxxis dhf 2.5wt tubeless

Chromag trailmaster dt

Chromag ranger v2 40mm stem

Renthal fatbar carbon 780

As for their parts, I dont know how it is for a shop with warranty claims. Almost everything is available to purchase on their us site

Boost 110 20mn axle up front? These must be going on a big bike! I absolutely lust over the way i9 hubs sound, it's intoxicating. The maintenance is stupid simple and easy too. I still prefer King hubs though.

They are going on my sight. The new Durolux r2c2 is adjustable from 160mm to 180.

Im in the 160 setting.

New wheels seeing as my seasons going to be starting soon.

Boom is right! In for the first impressions.

No rides on it yet, but installed it. First off, the install went smooth. Watched their video twice and went for it. And only took about 30 minutes

I did a thing today...

I did something similar. But I got a set of ZEEs. Ordered some new tires and my fall line should be here this week.

I can dig all of that, except the fork! SR will forever be blemished in my book after filing dozens of warranty claims on their stuff every year. You need a Fox 36

I have some time on a Pike. And with performance for price, I'll take the Auron all day long. It sucks that you have had issues with SR. They have been nothing but helpful, but slow to respond. If I could get a 36 for a reasonable price I would definitely give it a go.

On another note. I too also ordered my dropper this week after being on the waiting list for 5 weeks. And I'm on the fence about ordering a carbon wheelset.

This years ride
