Got my new Trickstuff Excentricker a few days back and took it for it's 1st outing in the weekend. It went really well, didn't slip, creak or let the chain derail.
I'll post some photos soon.

nice!!
Are they minutes on the front? - How do you find them? I was seriously looking at getting some for the xxix, but couldnt afford it, so went with carbon rigids as a kind of compromise.

yep, minutes,
pretty good fork , i've always been a bit of a sucker for manitou's ever since my first pair of m-sports back in the day, the absolute damper does "click" on every setting bar the fully open, but that is being sorted as we speak by a new shim stack from manitou.
has not been a problem as i run them fully open any way.
incredibly LIGHT!
i love them , they've handled every thing i've thrown at them .
or thrown them at for that matter

How much do they set you back? Cheaper than getting Horizontal dropouts welded on and a paintjob?
