    I figured the other Eric would be the first to point that out. It matches my red calipers....

    Need to read descriptions of what I'm buying better, it's not quite what I expected. :oops: I'm hoping it looks better, or falls off, after I smash it into a few rocks.

    I'll see if I can scrounge up a few coffee cans in case this happens.

    Don't you have spares for the Subaru too?

    Nice work, Brett! I'm sure you're glad to have all of that done and start enjoying the benefits of all of that effort. I can't wait to hear how she rides!

    Btw, what did they set you up with for valving?

    Good to know!

    Mine are 10, 10, F, 12's on compression and 10, 10, 10, 12's on rebound. That's with bro clickers, though.

    I'll be curious to see how you like the flutter stack setup on our trails here. Especially since I'll likely be doing much of the same sort of wheeling and camping.
