I like how there is one screw on the upper guide and only one on the lower guide wheel. E13 has 2 screws in each spot...,ore things to come loose. I like how the bash is bolted tot he backing plate unner the pulley. Not much more you can do w/ one of these things, but I think I like the looks of this better than my LG-1...as long as it works.

I like the bash design, how it keeps going under the pulley/roller - as I am great at rotating that sucker up

Otherwise, i tottally (and irtrationally) hate MRP! (And hope and WTB...)

Why? BECAUSE!


it hurts to like that thing at all...

I was always a die-hard MRP fan untill I tried thier new stuff... I have heard from numerous others about thier troubles with G2's bottom guide not lasting from any sort of impact that it gets. I'm jumping on the e.13 train this year for sure.

thankfully mine wasnt painted. but yes, its a foes.

its too bad that happened to his, but Chris at Foes has been great in taking care of my frame.
they did a rebuild of the shock and all bearings that were blown, and didnt really charge me that much.
i just cant wait for my new frame to come in now:
