Congrats

Thanks but it's a little early to celebrate, I have yet to receive a tracking number and more importantly a way to sneak it inside the house! J/K I'll have to pace myself, I have some of the components but some very $$$ ones are missing.

I briefly entertained the idea of an ESD but they don't sell the frame alone and to be honest it's a little too much. This is pretty slack and actually in line with the Fugitive in terms of geo, kind of.

I have an ESD frame only, @jdog hooked me up. I still need to get drive train stuff for it, but have most the parts.

Don't forget you have a friendly neighborhood shipping option.

Sending some shocks to avalanche for some magic unicorn witchcraft. Also just realized my old evil following is on his site because it was a Guinea pig for a custom sized bomber coil shock 🤘

so basically never in bike years, that sucks.

So I got my box of parts but I was waiting for this to come in first....because if a bike is either orange or blue....they might as well be both as far as im concerned

Looks like someone is going all-in for the 2022 enduro season. Good stuff.

And yes, DW link bikes pedal unbelievably well. I leave my 429 open 100% of the time.

Anyone have experience with bike inn.com? Looking to buy a travel bag. Bikeinn seems to have it $100 below others and in stock. Which gives me cause to pause.

I’ll probably get from my LBS.

I've bought a few random items from them as they seem to occasionally have Shimano stock of items not normally available and happen to still ship to the US (not sure why). It usually takes a week to get the package, I guess it depends where it ships from, as it usually goes through the Netherlands.

I only buy from them or other international if not available locally/domestically. I would first check with your LBS.

I got a hard to find freehub for my Vision wheel and it came in within a few days and was 100% the correct part. Not sure that helps was just a one time order but they did ok by me.

maybe we should all coordinate with a forwarding service?
I only ship domestic on ebay, but i'd say about 1 in 20 goes to a forwarder if it is "interesting"

Never looked into that. Cost? I’d rather buy local and if not available domestic when available, but looks like Shimano XT class components are not existent in North America.

I hope not. A buddy of mine ordered a bike late last year and original arrival date was beginning of February. Now it is April.

I just received a '21 Rockhopper I ordered almost two years ago. I didn't even know they were still making 21's. Must have been sitting in a container somewhere. OR, Specialized is keeping new product for themselves and sending out old inventory to dealers they don't own.

I recently bought new XT cassette and XT shifter. Which XT components are you looking for? The XT derailleurs do seem to be harder to find new.

Shifter, derailleur and cassette 12 speed. Not in a hurry as I can rig together a extended 10-50t 11 speed with parts I already have. But all of those seem in back order in the US.
 
Be persistent. I had a new Xt shifter and a Sun Race cassette but no derailleur. I called around yesterday and Halters had a brand new take off. I drove over immediately and bought it. Call the bike shops weekly
