I highly recommend getting the drop crowns for the 888, such a better turning fork an inch lower......nice ride. Was it a straight up trade?

he didnt like the seat so i kept it and gave him the other one i had..we swapped out derailuers cause i dont think his XO for my shitty XT was a fair trade haha :orly: and i kept my bars and he kept his..

see how i like the 888, might get a BOXXER WC next season..we will see though i guess...

Ive got an 888 and i love it. My buddys got a world cup, and it feels like shit (his settings are the total opposite of mine). If it was setup for how i wanted it, it would be like a million times better then the 888. I dont care though, the 888 works good. Nice bike, that things gonna rip
