    2009 F1 reveals

    I think the MP4-24 looks the best so far. I'm not sure how I feel about the new cars. Obviously the rear wing is a bit odd looking, but the clean front wings make up for it IMO. A throw back to the early-mid 1990's when the cars looked the best. I also like the clean side pods, Void of all the...

    2009 F1 reveals

    I was at Interlagos for the race. It was Glock who got passed by Hamilton & Vettel, not Trulli. Piloting an F1 car without traction in the wet on dry tires must be all but impossible. It would have been all Timo could do to keep the car on the tarmac. He didn't hand Lewis the championship. It's...

    Frame Builder(Designer) Education level?

    This is an ignorant statement. SolidWorks is a great CAD package IMO. I'm fluent in SW, UG NX3, and some pro-e. Each CAD package accels in different areas. Anything from autodesk is **** in my opinion, so I'd stay away from Inventor. But nomatter what you learn on, transitioning to any package...

    Frame Builder(Designer) Education level?

    My advice to you is to do something that you like and makes you a lot of money, and do the frame building/designing as a side thing. I love motorsports. I worked as a professional race car mechanic for a year, and realized that I'd rather work the 9-5, make a bunch of cash, and then use it...

    My New Fixie Build

    Yeah my freeride rig was probably about the same. I can't believe this thing was that much. However it did turn out exactly how I wanted. Usually you make compromises on parts when you're building a bike based on what's available/cheap/whatever. But this one I didn't compromise once. I'd do it...

    My New Fixie Build

    All said and done it was about $1200.00. I almost fell out of my chair when I calculated it at the end. I picked up the fork for 50 bucks, the frame was only 150 brand new, cranks were only 60. It sure adds up quick though.:eek:

    My New Fixie Build

    Hubs are Formula sealed or whatever. Really nice IMO. The tires are Vittoria Zaffiro. Cheap and nice.

    New Fixed Gear Build Thread

    Ok finished. I hate the bars on this bike. They will be getting replaced with some pursuit bars or something similar. Paint came out pretty well. Definitely not track geometry. Look at all the space between the rear wheel and seat post :plthumbsdown:

    Cannondale Stealth Bike

    Taken from Core77.com. Pretty awesome looking I think. The F-117 Nighthawk may have been retired but it's spirit lives on in Canondale's Stealth Concept Bike which debuted earlier this year at the Eurobike Show in Germany. The styling direction of the Cannondale Stealth Concept...

    Agreed. If you can't get excited about big jumps, regardless of how many times you've hit them...then I'm afraid there's just no pleasing you lol.

    New Fixed Gear Build Thread

    I picked up an 80's Schwinn world sport 10 speed the other day for 50 bucks. Turning it into another fixed gear. Going to just build this one, sell it, and try and break even. I cut the cable guides off, rear fender mounts, and the fender/kickstand mount from the chainstays. Going to do this...

    future of diablo

    Because this is a forum and you're allowed to let people know your thoughts. If Diablo filters through the ignorant posts and looks at what some of the more intelligent people have to say about possible improvements and what they'd like to see, then I'm sure the park will just get better and better.

    future of diablo

    I like Diablo a lot. I ride there more or less every weekend in the summer. However I can think of lots of things at highland that Diablo can't even touch. Massive slope style course, a dirt half pipe, big step ups, ***NE STYLE***. If Diablo were to put in some features that they don't already...

    future of diablo

    Some challenging stuff would be nice. All the drops are pretty tame IMO. There should be some features that you need to seriously commit to. Not stuff you can roll off at any speed you want and land fine. Believe me all that stuff is a lot of fun to ride, but they should have some more stuff...

    I want to be a hooker when I grow up

    They didn't boot Mosley. The FIA decided that if he wanted to have Nazi themed sex orgies it was fine, as long as it didn't effect his work. That means that Nazi themed sex orgies are now socially acceptable :happydance:
