Yep, also none of the newer models were being added before hand.
Realistically the Strive ON is the only one that would sell in numbers here and they already seem to be offering discounts on it in Europe of 13-14%.
It's a shame as they are priced so well.

I can only imagine there was something wrong with the Pivot you tested. Pivot looks to be out of his budget anyway so he should look at the Jam2 SL in the slack setting or even the Heckler SL.
The Fazua I rode and couldn't feel any drag. Less drag and noise than the Specialised. Also fealt...

Please post on here what coil shocks you know fit and any spring rate/type recommendations.
So far I know the following shocks fit.
-Fox DHX
-Fox DHX 2
- MRP Hazard
- EXT Arma...
