something good to say about BH service :)

The new front forks are brilliant. They have totally transformed the whole feel and ride of the bike. It now feel so light at the front, where as previously it was like riding with a gravity magnet attached. The remote poloc is also a very welcome addition, and I particularly like the way that you can be riding on the road with the forks locked out, yet hit a pot hole and they release to save any damage. BH have missed out by not fitting forks such as Rebas to the Xtrem. They are worth it for the weight saving alone.

I must admit that I have also fitted another accessory that I picked up from Germany.

This latest addition has also made a significant difference to the ride quality. I had first thought that I'd be piling weight back onto the bike, when I'd been trying to loose it, but it is actually surprisingly light.

That's a really fine looking specimen Eddie- nice job on the mods

Do you find the Thudbuster gives a strange ride when the forks are locked out?
A while back the forks on my bouncer seized & it felt really weird with my bum going up & down but the bars solid - Felt like riding a sprung bed

I almost never lock out my Rockshox xc32's now - The tarmac down here is rougher than the trailz & I Never stand up, anyway.

Now that you come to mention it, there was a feeling which had me locking and un locking the forks. I noticed it a couple of times, put never put the connection together.

Good call Eddie. What length head tube did you get away with?

I'm after some for mine, but the set up is very odd - it seems oversize?
