The Force & Sanction (Force LE) frames are virtually identical in construction. The difference is geometry (TT length, HT angle, & fork length) & a TT gusset. They use the same shock length (7.5") & stroke (2.0") for 150mm of rear wheel travel. The shock tune on Sanction varies slightly to provide better performance on longer descents and thru high velocity compressions (g-out, fast drops).

The Force LE is an upcoming 2013 model that is a mash-up of Force & Sanction for enduro type race use.

The blue polished Fury frame was one off made for Marc for 2010 Worlds at MSA.

Some aftermarket 30.0mm options for Fury Carbon post are Thomson, RaceFace, Truvativ, & SDG (that I know off the top-of-my-head). The 36.4mm clamp size is pretty standard on carbon frames. A high end road or mtn bike dealer should be able to help sort you out. Hope makes this size and this is what Marc used last season.

Having ridden there for 10+ years, it's humbling to see that mountain ridden so fast. Great to see some of the classic Mountain Creek trails cut back in the day by Clayton and crew get used for the race.

Not only Ryan & Jeff but some credit where credit is due to Hans Rey who preceded them all. Oh, and who played an instrumental role in fueling the buzz behind Danny the 1st day the vid hit the web, [L=http://bikeintelligencer.wordpress.com/2009/12/29/how-danny-macaskill-got-famous/]as Bike Intelligencer pointed out today[/L].
