Long Travel FS update

For month's we've been working on this design. Its been mocked up in a CAD program and scrutinized heavily. Now the speculation is over and the fabrication has begun. There have been a few hurdles along the way but for the most part its coming along very well.

In general, our goal is to have a short-stay long-travel full suspension 29er. We want it built stout with slack angles and as much travel as practical. So far it looks like we will arrive at around 150mm of travel, 440 CS, 13.5" BB height. Our issues so far seem to be stand over height, ISCG mounts, front derailer and tire contact on the ST. Lets see how this things plays out.

Thursday, Adam (HH mechanic) and I are heading out to Angel Fire NM for the 12hr Red Bull "Final Decent" endurance DH race. Nothing like 12hrs of shuttle runs to test a new prototype design! ;)
