Hey Slowride, nice setup. I'm glad you finally got the fork situation solved. Stratos, Fox, marzocchi, and now a Flick. Looks good. Rich . I just bought a 03 Z1 to go on my Heckler, sure looks sweet.

Thanks Rich!
That fork thing was a real dilemma for me. I didn't ever think I would be able to get rid of the Stratos!
I really wanted the Fox... but with a trip to Moab coming before the end of the month, there was a need for something that could be delivered in a more timely fashion, and the Sherman was in stock at Jenson for a good price.
I actually came very close to buying a Heckler, around the time I got the Monkey frame instead. Believe me, there were times during this project that I thought about scrapping it all and just buying a new complete bike. Is this a replacement fork, or are you just building it up? Got any pics? :)

The bike is almost finished. I'll post pics soon. Thanks, Rich
