[qbert2000]

[Sampo69]

beautiful bike. how do you like the dt swiss fork? is that the 20mm or the new qr15 on there?

Thank You! 20mm. The fork is still a mystery. Its like -5'C to -15'C so riding is minimal right now. And all gets stiff in cold. But what little riding have do, i like it. Its smooth and responsive. Eats small and big. Bobs a little when hammering on the tube, but aint they all

That's a stunning looking bike. Do you have any pics of it with the TALAS set to 130mm?

[smithrider]

Sticky please!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, there seem to be a ton of Tracers on this board but not many reviews in the review sections. What gives?

[vlxray]

I have not yet had a chance to do an actual trail ride but I plan to this weekend. I will post a review once I shred some trails on it. I have done a test ride around the neighborhood and the bike feels awesome. It's very plush yet pedals very well. The geometry feels spot on. I think this will be the ultimate "do everything" bike.

Awsome

I must fix my CCDB on my frame

[daddy yo yo]

found this beautiful picture of a black chrome tracer on flickr:



i just saw that this is twouarek's bike! can't wait to see it finished!!

[Black RONIN]

Oh boy. That black chrome is THE one color Intense should consider to add NOW for the Tracer (and whole Intense) lineup. That's way more beautiful than the SE blue.

PLEASE INTENSE, MAKE THIS COLOR AN OPTION!!!
