    Damn that's going to be a nice setup! Are those the XC arms? I guess you solved the problem of you and your brother both riding the bike huh?

    LT Arms. When I ordered I gave my weight and said I’d primarily be riding dunes/desert. The tie rod kit says “mx/dz” 

    Yeah I guess the last time was my big bros first and last ride on the Banch, he’s got the big ol raptor.

    I missed the second part of your question the first time. As others have said it is ideal to do both together but if your budget won't allow my opinion is it isn't a waste to do the front, just now the front will out perform the rear and you won't see the full gains. The rear shock is actually decent on the banshee when properly setup. It sounds to me like its probably too stiff and too little rebound damping, have to tried adjusting it?

    Sounds good. I would imagine having a front end upgrade would be noticeably better than the oem banshee front even if running the stock rear shock for a bit. I really don't jump at all anymore, just like to have fun on trails and dunes. One day I'm looking at prices like "Getting these Evols and Roll Designs baby!" next day I'm thinking "Well, I could get a NICE complete front and back elka lt/alba set up for the same money" we'll see.

    I got my new floats today. They will be replacing stage 4 Elka legacy which are equivalent to the new stage 5. I had Floats on my old Alba arms and once you get used to riding on air it's hard to go back.0e40a5c252f4a6d5eb28f781fc752e68.jpg71ba5afe8975d30c7b789b631b9e951e.jpg

    (whats up with those stage 4's? :P )

  3. NOOOb question: Does having Long Travel front end automatically mean your front end sits higher? Looking for a cushier setup but I do like my current/stock "low" seating position. 

    Why I'm here:  Would not upgrading the rear shock immediately be a waste of adding a $2000 front end? Front of the bike is gliding over everything while the rear is coming loose/bopping around?

  4. Has anyone tried or heard anything about the Duro DI-K778A or SunF A022 tires? They both seem like an exact knock off to the OEM Dunlop KT877a.

    Are they cheaply made I'm wondering? The SunF's can be had for just over $100 for a pair. Are they complete junk or basically the same thing as the discontinued Dunlop?

    (I have a huge soft spot for the OEM Banshee tires! I want a new set just to have)

    SunF:
