I have to show off my new frontside. Sorry!

I do have a question on brakelines though. This is a +1 long travel setup. I need to buy new brakelines, and everything is either stock length or +2. I've heard most aftermarket lines are long, so could I stick with stock length? I don't want 4 inches of extra slack if I don't have to buy the longer ones.
Thanks!

since you have the arms at full droop, why not moch up your current lines there and see if they have enough slack? set the spindles in place just enough to see where the stock line sits. make sure to turn the wheels also and check for binding.

that is a very ncie set up by the way!:D

Good tip Lonerider....I thought of that late last night as well. I'll mock it up, and let everyone know.
