The neat-freak in me wants to delete and repost my post things back in order, but then your reply will be out of order, and the neat-freak is freaked out by that!
Here are those links to the Beta stories about [**the Datum bike**](https://www.betamtb.com/bike-tests/trail/crowdfunding-a-better-moustrap-a-first-ride-on-the-us-built-digit-datum/ "Crowdfunding a Better Moustrap: First Ride on the U.S.-Built Digit Datum") and the one titled [**"Why It’s OK That the New Digit Datum has a Proprietary Rear Shock"**](https://www.betamtb.com/news-issues/why-its-ok-that-the-digit-datum-has-a-proprietary-rear-shock/ "Why It’s OK That the New Digit Datum has a Proprietary Rear Shock"). There's no tech in there which isn't on my page, but a Ferrentino review is a better read than my list of specs.
If anyone else reading this is interested by this bike, please check out [](DigitBikes.com)**[](http:///www.DigitBikes.com)[the DigitBikes Kickstarter](http://www.DigitBikes.com)**, it's already 57% funded in just few days and the discounts are substantial for a mUSA bike (the MSRP will necessarily be somewhere in the Reeb to Geometron range)
Have a great weekend, happy trails.
