people always underestimate the travis because they automatically think "manipoo". that is a great fork. i have no interest in purchasing this bike so here is what it is really worth: hayes disk brakes, used stinky (plentiful), entry level rear shock puts you right at about $1200. sorry man, but everyone is trying to get rid of rides these days and stinkys can be had everywhere alot better spec'd than this one. good luck!

by far. they are on all my rides now. finally had to replace the bearings in a set after two brutal sloppy seasons and it was stupid easy. will always run straitlines now
