    Hope Pro II 150x12 48pt - a little mod

    Haggardly modded my hub the other night with a dremel, vise and some patience. Took a lot of trial and error. The offset looks and sounds about right to me and the two modified pawls appear to engage at the same time. I had to bend the spring out a little more on the shortened pawls to get solid...

    Frame builder wanted?

    A friend of mine hand builds frames in Southington, Connecticut. Check out his website here: http://www.rcpfabrication.com/ He's mainly a street/trials rider so he knows a lot about geometry that works for that type of riding. Let me if you have any questions. Tell him Dan P sent you.

    RCP Fabrication "NE29R" bike and frame via Kickstarter

    Understood. RCP offers the shortest chainstays of the bunch; Transition 435mm, Canfield 424mm and RCP 410mm. Although the design may not be perfect, I still think it's a step in the right direction. After the first production run the plan is to offer additional sizes. This should help...

    RCP Fabrication "NE29R" bike and frame via Kickstarter

    My buddy Ryan, the owner and fabricator of RCP Fabrication, just launched a Kickstarter website for his new production NE29R mountain bike. Ryan has taken what he's learned from building custom bikes over the last few years and created a playful 29er built to slay the technical trails of New...

    I have a custom street trials frame that my buddy made, it fits a Michelin 2.8 and has 14.75" chain stays. I say its possible.

    Jam info? Everyone likes to jam, especially if it helps out a fellow rider.

    RCP Fabrication - All Mountain Hardtail

    Poland: My thoughts exactly. Now I have this. MMcG: Currently Waterbury. I think Ryan moved recently so that information could be outdated.

    RCP Fabrication - All Mountain Hardtail

    Earlier this year my buddy Ryan at RCP Fabrication started making hand built frames in Waterbury, CT. As a long time welder, mechanic and street/trials rider theres no doubt he knows his way around a bike. After the first couple of frames came in at sub 5 lbs I was very interested, so I came...

    Bike Park Road Trip

    FYI... Plattekill is in Roxbury, NY. Not Plattekill, NY. Sounds like a fun trip. Make sure you plan it around the mountains summer schedules so they are open during the week. I know Diablo/Highland are open during the week at some point, not sure about the others.

    2011 National Champs to be held in North Carolina

    Sol Vista, 1000 vertical feet of beach sand... Beech Mountain, 830 vertical feet (of beach sand, which is assumed based on the name). American gravity racing is really stepping it up. Regardless, I will be there. 12 hours is easier than 30+. I'm a fan of keeping Nationals and Worlds on the...

    Where to find SR Suntour Electric Lockout Button?

    Hey... I recently got a deal on an SR Suntour 'SF9-AXON werx ELD 15QLC' fork (link: http://www.srsuntour-cycling.com/SID=sie5f43018c731c4d66fd4a974d92bb8/index.php?screen=sh.detail&tnid=2591). My original plan was to throw it on my jump bike and beat on it, but since it looks pretty nice and...

    K9 Industries DH001-S

    The first year for the Banshee Scream was 2003... The K9 frame looks much better built up and I'm sure it rides great. I can only imagine how difficult it will be to get one in the US if you really wanted one.
