Fox 36 TALAS RC2 preview
A while back, I mentioned that I was going to pick up a Rock Shox Pike and ride it during my next round of product testing. Unfortunately for me, the 2005 Pike Team was completely sold out in Canada by the time I placed my order.
Things being as busy as they are around here, I pushed the fork thing onto the backburner. A couple of things happened during this time that moved me away from the Rock Shox Pike and towards the Fox 36.

The fork arrived and today and, after spending a little bit of time getting the bike cleaned up, it was installed and is now ready to go (pic here).
All you readers can expect a thorough review of the Fox 36 TALAS RC2 in a couple of months, just in time for Christmas.
