Of course. They are so nice that I was too busy riding them to post here.

Okay, I rode at Bear today with all the bling bling.

Gravity Dropper: If I had been allowed to choose only one thing, this would have been it.  Worth every penny.
Formula Oro K24 Disc Brakes: Wow, they are sooooo powerful! I'm still adapting, but it's sure nice to be able to brake with only ONE finger (each hand).
Dave's Wheels: When Mr Mud test rode my bike at the parking lot, he said "these wheels are fast!"  I think each wheal shaved about 200g.  I'm planning on going tubeless once I figure out what tires work best for me.
Pearl Izumi X-Alp Low MTB shoes: Ohhhh, they made hike-a-bike, which I did quite a bit today, so much more enjoyable than my previous (road) shoes.
WTB Mutano 2.4 tire (rear): bad bad choice.  Way too washy.  Wouldn't even want it for the front. It will go to Classifieds.


Inch by inch, I will get there.

Nice set up, I had the same problem with the WTB Velociraptors, I am going to stay away from them.
