DH / FR DC SPV
I just came into some money and I have a little over a grand
to spend on a DC fork to replace my 02 Jr T on my Bullit. I will need at least a new hub because the Jr T has standard dropouts. What do you guys recommend for a new front hub? I already have Tioga DH rims. Should I also replace my rear hub? If I do replace the rear hub what is the biggest axel I can go with on a 03 Bullit rear triangle? I can't decide on a Super T or the Slider Plus. Has anyone had experience with either? I think SPV will be important because I am selling my other MTBikes because the Bullit is so great at being an all around trail bike. Ideas, opinions? TIA |

I also bought them for almost nothing used. I will resell them. I got them to get me past not having enough money to get me what I want and mainly to learn first hand how to install and setup DC forks. I sold another vintage guitar and I always take a small part of the profit to put into whatever my current hobby is. Any ideas on my original questions? |

You're going to regret doing that... Jim still talks about his vintage guitars and basses that he was forced to sell. - CA-G Can-Am Girls Kick Ass! |

Nah I don't think so... I have a couple others. Now I did sell a 1968 Martin D-18 that I regret selling for sure... and a 64 P-Base... and a first year Jackson "Randy Rhodes" flying V.... Also I was not forced to sell, a great deal came along and I got back over 11 times what I paid for it. |

It had the best neck pickup sound of any strat (and I mean any... from real 1954 on up) I have ever played and I have ever heard, in real life (non recording). I miss it but I also had that guitar for 15 years... I can't believe how much that thing went up in value... so it was a good time to sell, and I have more old strats anyway. |
