Super interesting seeing the components like the pedals and chainring/power meter. i have used those parts for a long time as they work well and are a great value, but cool to see them on a race team.

Trinx has always used open mold frames. Just like my Lexon Riot, they used that mold for a season or two. But this is exciting, because it shows me that its a more than worthy frame to take the abuse.

Is there any significant differences between the 980 and the 918?
Is the 980 a XC and the 918 a down country?
The 918 has a lighter listed weight.
Anyone built one of these yet?
Is this sort of a Epic WC style frame and the 918 is an Epic Evo style frame?

I don't think there is a huge difference other that travel and the visual differences in frame layout. At the end of the day they are both short travel, likely very efficient bikes. I have the 918 and am very happy with it. I will likely go with a 980 as I prefer to have less travel than the 110mm of the 918. It also looks like the 980 will hold 2 big bottles better than the 918. I can only fit a 500ml bottle on the seat tube in my large frame. Hoping I can get a 750ml on the 980

Has anyone ordered the 980 yet? I have a hard time to decide between the 980 and the 918 :)
