Yeah I went with the 036 in 17.5 so I will have the 057 and 036 to compare soon.

So my fit is typically between 589-600mm for XC and my smallest I would go with is 576mm.  There is a much bigger difference for 15.5 to 17.5 in the 036???
EDIT: my ideal size would be 16.5" so I always have to decide to go up or down

057 - TT - 15.5" - 590mm
057 - TT - 17.5" - 600mm

036 - TT - 15.5" - 565mm
036 - TT - 17.5" - 598mm

I used Stans No Tubes 9.14m x 25mm (10yd x 1in.) Rim Tape with no problems.

Yep. I had to go with the 17.5 in the IP036 to get the ETT length I wanted.  Not sure if it will be a problem but I went with it.

It looks like you need to remove a link.

I can tell you, I have been in the same boat and broke tire levers but eventually got them by going inch by inch with the tire lever.  It sounds like you are doing everything right.  I have never had to use compressor to get them seat.

I wouldn't worry much Peter has always delivered but it takes time to get from China.

Damn that Reba is a steal.  I paid 500 and I thought I got a good deal.

Ip057 - gxp - no spacers for xx1.  It was easy and I have never done it before.

For those comparing Frame Sizes - I ride a 15.5 in the IP057 and trying to figure out if the same size will work in a FS.  Looks like 25cm difference in Top tube length in the same size.

I've had both because I broke my iplay version. Not their fault.

V-that is what is making me want to get one as well.  Some of the guys I race with ride FS and I try to keep up and I just watch the back tire carve through the trails. Catching up on a downhill, forget about it. 

My build is looking like its going to be around 4k if I do it the way I want.  I need to figure out how to get this paint scheme on a FS.  Anyone have ideas on how to get this detail on the FS so Peter can get it painted.  Photoshop?

Lastly, I am reading more about rear shock being medium tune or high tune. The monarch xx might is medium tune?  Not sure what to think about that. More research needed.

These RWC shock needle bearings sound interesting. I'll have to do some research to see which one is needed as they have only factory bikes listed.  Did you need a tool to install the bearings? Stock or these RWC?
