Re:
Update:
-Im probably going to be riding on the road most of the time so i wanted a lightweight rigid fork, im keeping the bombers as well but ive bought a pair of pace rc31. they weigh something silly like 700grams but they're also suspension corrected. i bought an older/cheaper 420mm version to see if i like them (which i do) so i might buy a new 440mm pair which would match the a-c of the marzocchi fork.
-The handlebars have been swapped for a ritchey wcs carbon riser because the superlogic was too low rise for use with rigid forks. Not sure i like em but they will do for now.
-Ive also changed the wheels, hubs are hope ti glide rear with a fatso up front, and laced on mavic x517 citrus colour rims. really, i didnt need a new pair of wheels but i saw them on ebay, and yeah i guess you could call them an impulse buy lol. but matching Hope titanium hubs in black are rare and you dont see them very often, plus i just love the sound the rear freehub makes so i had to have em the colour of the rims is probably a bit love or hate, and im not sure they suit the colour of the frame but i love em, they're bold and i think they look great.
