They're bulk bought so no fancy box, pump, spare seals or stickers but I'm not really bothered. 2013 stuff is due next month but having looked at the rockshox lineup, nothing make me think I should wait (can't anyway as I need the bike sorted).

No need for all that stuff anyway a shock pump is peanuts

My shocks came from Merlin, boxed and all the gubbins included, i was told that sometimes they strip bikes down and sell the parts on, but it makes no odds as its all good stuff.

Already got a shock pump. Was just going by what people have said on bike radar and singletrack world. Order loads from Merlin and never had a problem. Looks like that's the one to get then!

Well the forks have arrived. Not in a Rockshox box but with the proper manual, spacers, cable tie and sticker. So the only thing you don't get is the first service seal kit, which is fine.

Does this mean we might see this bike eventually?

Yup, though not this weekend as I'm waiting for stuff from bike-discount.de.

Not out anyway, planning a hangover
