BTW: if you noticed the fork is inversed.
Had problems in the beginning. because the fork the hydraulic cable for my front brake ticked always against the wheel when the fork pushed down and it broke once. No front brake no more and that when i just began a run.

ow yeah and the brakes are also from magura (louise or somthing like that)

Okay - run a zip tie around your lower crown. Then run another zip tie in a lopp around that and holding your cable close. No more problems with tire rub. If needed, you can also do this on the lower leg.

you're kind of annoying. I think pretty much everyone realized he meant 185mm's. Why you felt the need to point it out is beyond me. Just trying to sound smart?

Everyone is taking things so harsh these days....for all you know I could have just pointed it out so he could change it. I never said he sucked or anything because of it, I make mistakes too and if people poke fun at it oh well, this is a fun environment and I know if someone points it out and makes a little joke or something about it they don't mean anything more by it.
