these are the new 08 frame, so they are only just starting to land now. So now listed on the website, and yes we can ship to any countries that don't have a Solid Distributor.

sorry fella, this was sold last year. For some reason the UK importers of Rockshox don't bring in any forks with flat crowns, even though there is an option.

nope its a team bike. I run a company that imports Reverse Components into the UK. We run a team thats co-sponsored by Yeti. This bike belongs to Nathan Vials, a UK Junior racer.

yes, they are for sale. £750.00

They were an 07, team fork. We were supported by Fox in Germany. This set have had a full service and new lowers. so they are mint.

ha ha, cheers for the comments guys. Can clarify its not been modified in anyway. The pic was taken by Victor Lucas (photographer for Dirt) it was taken on a DH race track, so the plan wasn't to go big, or anything else, it was just to get some cool pics of the pro riders we sponsor, looking fast. However as I was there riding as well Victor was kind enough to get some of me.

yup its the one the athertons jump on earthed, but to be honest its A LOT more impressive when you see it in the flesh. Earthed makes it look small. And your right, it doesn't need a DH bike. Its so smooth, Sam only used about 2 inches of travel. All mountain bike would be fine. Just wouldn't want to try and sort the warranty if you came up short!

no crash, but he did land off the right hand side of the picture doing about 100 miles an hour. if he'd have crashed he wouldn't have made it to race for the UK at the world champs!

pic was taken in England, its about 3 miles from my house. Farmer has given us some land to play on.

not had a chance to weigh it yet. will try and post back next week.

First impressions of the 55 atas, are that they are an awesome fork. I had 36s on my last bike and these feel nicer.
