    Really cool video! I wish you could test more materials like Titanium and maybe some carbon frames in a future. A titanium frame would be awesome to test too,just for the science hehehe. Steel made sense for a DH bike,tubes are slimmer and the weight is not something top off the list. Very simple and clean looking bike,quite like it. I hope you made some bikes for the general public once you are happy with the bike. Heal soon Neko!

    In order for any comparative test to be of value one needs to eliminate the expectation bias by blinding the test. If you have certain preconceived notions of a steel bike and you know you know what frame you are riding - your objectivity goes through the window... I realise it is hard to hide the frame on a bike, but it is not impossible. A-B-X blind testing is the way

    Question for the rocker links, is there a specific reason you are relying on the bushings for rotation over something like a needle bearing?

    The shock install has enough width for the Fox bearing eyelet kit so there is no need for bearings in the rocker.
