So they've just got the wrong legs then, as my XL's were eggplant and my friends XLC's were grey.
Never noticed a difference in upper legs, always wondered what the difference was!
Can't help on the shock, but I'd be amazed if it ran a 190mm shock, my 2001 octane FX1 ran a 190!
The head angle is adjustable. Just undo it and turn it 180 degrees for +\-1 degree off the top of my head.
You'd also be crazy to consider mozo pro's, Jesus, mine were terrible even in 97 I dread to think how they'd ride today! Never a patch on my mates Judy XC long travels, and when he put speed springs in them... Wow!
Is this still for sale? Been dying to get hold of an on-one gimp which I rode back in 2000 but keep missing them, had a Dark Angel in '02 and it's the next best thing!
Happy to pay the £45 for it to be posted.
