I thought it was.. Haha. I've had my replacement frame stripped down more times than i've been able to ride it.. but its been worth the wait as its running sweet now. Im really stoked with it.. Just the weather sux with all the dark nights now.. saying that me and Ste have done some night runs with some bright bike lights.. Its a right laugh.

Is that a 1.5 steerer?... Do you know about the issue with finding a headset to run the standars 11/8 steerer?.. Ive worded about this on the Marin forum.. Noticed your Quake on there so i thought i'd comment your picture

i had my mechanic talk to marin to ask what spacers they had & what they used im not to sure on specifics but they sent me everything i needed to make it work marin will deffinatly be your best bet it will take a while tho as they are a big company but it should work on the forks i really like me BOXXER team but i think fox 40 are much nice in feel & more derable

Hey man what seat clamp size did you end up getting for the Quake? After I measured it I think it is 34.9mm, but I want to make sure. I have a 2009 btw.
