Just one issue with the dropper post sticking, which requires you to push it down to release it if it is just slightly below mid travel. Any ideas? Should I check the pressure or is this just an issue with this Fox Transfer post? I know they just redesigned it so perhaps it is just something to accept?

      Thats why I built up a full sus Chinese carbon frame bike for xc racing that weighs in at 10.020 kilos or less than 22 1/2 pounds and spent only $4800 on parts and shipping of said parts. Try buying a thoroughbred xc racer that weighs 10.6 kilos or less from any big name brand bike comapny and be ready to shell out $8,500 at the very least. And Don't try that "chinese carbon xc frames are inferior" BS on me. I raced one for 7 years( 46 races total) in north Thailand alongside most Thais using Chinese open mould frames and never had a single issue with my frame nor did any of my Thai friends racing them.I put on around 300 kilometers every week on that frame in my training sessions 6 days a week.
      For My new 2022 build, I shipped a Chinese carbon full sus frame to Colorado that cost me less than $600 UDS plus about $200 shipping and it came in three weeks without a scratch on it, and put on top end components (Because I could afford to saving so much on the frame, ) and used carbon wheels from the same company laced to DT swiss 240 hubs. I've had it 8 months now and raced it 4 times with three first place finishes and one third place finish.
      And oh yes the money I saved building this bike, (nearly $5000) I used to buy an airline ticket back to Thailand where I now am , and am having a nice long vacation of 4 months racing all around Thailand, avoiding the Colorado snow season and living off the money that others are still putting into their heavier name brand bikes. just sayin" Who's having the most fun?
