Im going to try to have these DMR Swopout compatible dropouts laser cut or abrasive water jet cut. They allow you to bolt on the DMR vertical, horizontal or through axle aluminum dropouts.

Powdercoat job # two is a complete and utter success! And on a side note, the pre-baking process one uses to remove oil also leaves the raw frame an awesome bronze-gold color... Can't wait to put some clear over a raw frame.

Aside from a little bit of electrocution, the first powdercoating job went pretty smoothly. I had a little bit of transparency in some sharp corners on the stays but managed to get total coverage with the "Cadillac" blue. I know how to avoid this thinning next time (flashlight)

Better one, or better two? Top one is straight gauge, bottom is Supertherm. Its .5lbs lighter with a slightly lower BB height. Both are larger 22.6" TT frames suitable for taller riders and/or dirt jump specific riding.(a little more sluggish at the skatepark than a 22" TT)
Allen in Utah has a 4X fork on his Phantom now. Very mean looking...
