Almost done reading this entire thread.
Just thought I'd chime in to say I upgraded a old b44 I got for nothing with the avid chassis and .2 kit + triad slipper and its money. Super stable but still agile and sharp. Using coach's setup so far but with yellow avid springs in the rear.
As for the Lunsford stuff just discussed, I ran them on my sc10 and b4 with no breaks or pop offs for the entire season last winter. I run ALOT of laps too.
One question about the new .2 front arms. Will the stronger arms lead to breaking something else instead or is still the first thing that snaps if I catch a pipe?
