Not that I've seen, I'm pretty keen on picking one up for the steamer bike and possibly the trail bike

i have a HA of 66 on the sanction and it is to much at times, the 68 on the force is far nicer over all but i do miss the 66HA when stuff gettings really steep.

a HA of 68 on the hardtail should work out rather nicely IMOH

Hmmm. This would go in my common bike. Degree slacker? Would be interesting indeed.

Let me rephrase that, your DH bike is slack enough. My commoner cycle is only 67.5 which is as you well know, nowhere near slack enough

Can't comment on setup, as I got lbs to press it in.
It's silent to ride and has been machined quite nicely. Stack height is a couple mm's less than the FSA orbit it replaced.
You can see why they only hit 1deg on the 1/8th, ain't much room in there especially with a longer H/T
Took about 5 days to get here. Feels radder, but perhaps thats e-placebo? :lol:
