If MCS had picked a better color, I'd be all over them.

Oh my Mark!

Anybody who proudly owns this mis-matched ride, as nice as it is:

-05 Trek Top Fuel 110 carbon fiber with SID World Cup fork, full XTR, Thomson stem and post, Formula K18 brakes (silver/black/little bits of red and blue)

...should probably not worry much about color coordination.

Cheers, KB

Looks like you missed this thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...-by-color.html

Also, there's nothing mis-matched about the Top Fuel. It's a great-looking bike and very understated. IMHO.

Sorry for the threadjack.

Hi Jackal

I exchanged emails a few months back with a guy called 'Curtis Woodman' from AST Suspension who are listed as the UK agents.

AST Suspension
MOTON Suspension Technology

0044(0)1684 275000
0044(0)7951 269927
www.astsuspension.co.uk

AST Suspension
Northway Trading Est.
Northway Lane
Tewkesbury
Gloucestershire
GL20 8JH



He supplied a quotation for the M500-072 'Clubsport' suspension with Eibach springs.

With topmounts included the price was £3650 + VAT

I've not decided one way or the other yet but the lack of UK guys running them is one of the reasons for hesitating. (I can't get an answer also on how much 'hardware' (brackets etc) is included on the shocks and how much needs improvising so this is the other hold point)

Will watch with interest, I am favouring KW CS at the moment because people such as Ninemeister seem to use them and use them well.
