    The Official Iron Horse Sunday / DW-Link Tech. & Tuning Section

    I'm 100% positive that your frame is a 2006 Sunday Factory. It is one of the USA built frames. All the stickers on that frame are original. It is not the World Cup--those were produced overseas. Not sure where you got the idea it's a WC. Good luck with your rebuild.

    Best Flat Pedal for Someone with Big Feet?

    I'm doing the same search you are right now. I wear a size 14 5.10 Impact. Been using Tioga MX-Pro pedals for years but am looking for something different now. Thought the Point1 Podiums would be good for me. Tried a set on a friends bike yesterday and the felt narrow due to the lack of...

    There are only a handful of union shops in town. There is also some refinery welding/fab contractors that you can look into if you want to go that route.

    B-Ham locals...a lil help here PLEASE!?

    There are quite a few fab shops here, but the problem is a large number of them are really slow. I've worked with guys from just about every shop in the area so I have a pretty good idea whats out there. Ershigs: union fab shop for sheetmetal and misc industrial in Bellingham (they lost 2...

    Advantages of Carbon Handlebars--Vibration?

    Are you serious with the recycling bit? I can always go throw them in the ocean if they break. Carbon has come a long way since the days of snapping for no good reason. This is actually the first time I've felt comfortable enough to trust something such as a carbon handlebar. The fact is...

    Advantages of Carbon Handlebars--Vibration?

    The small vibrations are what I'm hoping a set of carbon bars will dampen. My thought being road bikes with a carbon rear end vs. aluminum rear end feel very different vibration wise. Thanks for the help.

    Advantages of Carbon Handlebars--Vibration?

    I'm considering making the switch to a carbon bars and am wondering what the advantages are. I am somewhat concerned with weight, but wouldn't make the switch strictly based on weight. I am more concerned with differences in vibration dampening? I'm considering purchasing a set of Easton...

    who makes a pedal like this?

    Tioga MX Pro pedals---working well for my big feet. One thing to consider about traction pin removal with pins from the inside. If you have a bent or mangled steel pin that has to go through your aluminum pedal body, the aluminum threads are going to be stripped. With a pin that is exterior...

    40lb post! DH/FR Rigs around the 40lb mark! tips, pics, specs

    I've been thinking about making some 83mm XT cranks for the Sunday. Being a welder/fabricator I'm thinking of lengthening the spindle 10mm in the middle (100% weld with backer strip in joint)-- TIG weld. The problem will be clamping the spindle straight to prevent warping during cooling...

    Leg protection: which combo?

    Look at the TLD Combat knee/shin--I like them better than the Lopes pads.

    The Official Iron Horse Sunday / DW-Link Tech. & Tuning Section

    I have seen the 2008 factory frame already---but didn't think to look at the lower link while I was in the shop. Just wondering what the clearance issues are like on my 2006 linkage---Do you know if the new link had to be heavily modified or just a little trimming?

    The Official Iron Horse Sunday / DW-Link Tech. & Tuning Section

    I intended to buy the Vivid when it became available, but didn't know there was a fit issue. Any idea how much the new link will cost? Would like to see how much the 2008 lower link differs from past years. Does anyone have a picture of the 2008 lower link?

    Dual Slalom Fork

    I ride the fork also and I'm 200lbs. The fork responds equally well for her 120lbs and my 200lbs------enjoy the SX. I'm glad she isn't 200lbs also....

    Dual Slalom Fork

    My girlfriend rides an SX also, and I have her riding a Pike U-Turn Air. The fork adjustments work really well for her weight and mine.

    Pedals

    The Tioga MX pedals are still available--just an updated version. I've been riding them for the past 4 months and they are really nice. The platform is large, but still a light pedal. Just purchased the MG-1 for the SX----haven't even ridden them yet.

    Are you intentionally using "too small" bike for you?

    I'm 6'3" and ride a medium 17" Sunday. I don't find the bike feels too small---I actually feel more comfortable on the medium Sunday than I did on my large Turner DHR.
