I went round and round with 5 different sites, almost pulled the trigger on a Marzocchi Z2, missed the great deal @ATXZJ posted on the Yari and ended up getting desperate and tried Facebook Marketplace. Went back and forth with a few sellers and then found a great deal on a NIB Pike from a guy in South Austin. Turns out it was Wes! I should have listened from the beginning. My urge to stay north of the river is too strong.
I've been sick since I got it installed so I've only been able to ride around my yard. Already can tell it's a big jump from my RS 35 Gold RL and my only other good reference my old Fox 32.
It’s unclear whether it was 1/4 or Picnic, StarFlight landed in field that’s between the two and I heard there were a lot of Austin Fire Fighters on Picnic, so I’m assuming that’s the trail it happened on. It’s unconfirmed, but reports are the gentleman didn’t make it.
