Hi everyone. Just bought an 07 Meta 5 frame and will start swapping bits from my Marin to it as soon as I get the chance (or when I can't stand having it sitting there doing nothing any more....Read tomorrow :-)) and was just wondering if certain bits are going to fit?

I take it as read that my brand spanking Hope ceramic 63/73mm BB will fit but please let me know if it won't. And what about my 27.2 Gravity Dropper seatpost? I've got some shims that came with it but will I need them?

Also...What dimensions should the shock be? It has been fitted with an RP23 but is it the right size.

Any help would be gratefully accepted.

what size frame?
S/M = 27.2mm L/XL may be 31.6mm but I cant remember for definate if they brought in 'perfect size tubing' in 2007 or 2008
Bottom bracket will be okay
Front mech is swingarm mounted on the '07 so Im not sure what size band you need
