    Intense Socom with Chris KingDevolution Headset?

    I've never seen a "blacked-out" King headset like that. Custom?

    vivid on team dh

    What length did you use? The stock shock is 9.0 x 3.0? As far as I know the Vivid comes only in 9.5 x 3.0 or 8.75 x 2.75.

    I just got shafted by Marzocchi...

    I'd think twice before reporting the payment as fraud. You paid for a service , which they provided - it's not fraud. Sucks though man. I'd ask to speak to someone in charge and see if you can't get it sorted out.

    do you know how to ride more rapidly..

    Good production value - I was a bit confused with the sudden change back to the orange bike, but overall well done! I've never seen a plot in a bike video before, so props for originality.

    Is it worth it to go high end?

    Post #33 was the most honest advice I could muster considering. But you're right, I got sucked into caring. It probably wasn't worth being sarcastic. These exams are making me irritable. My apologies BmxConvert. Good luck in your search.

    Is it worth it to go high end?

    You are the best friend EVER - you're strapped for cash but you'll keep an M3 around just in case someone wants to ride it rather than sell it and have the bike spec of your choice....which would apparently involve a coil fork. Why not let them ride one of the two Session 10's you have lying...

    Is it worth it to go high end?

    Why are you buying ANOTHER fork if you own a WC? If you're being "forced" to hang up (or sell) the M3 why not take the WC from the M3 and put it on the new frame? Makes no sense whatsoever.

    Is it worth it to go high end?

    If I were you and I wasn't sure about the WC I'd test ride all sorts of other forks. Asking people won't give you any sort of idea of how a fork feels. These are just words on a page. Stick with the WC and IF you're still curious when the 08 Marzocchi arrives at your shop (or another LBS) test...

    Is it worth it to go high end?

    As far as I can tell this thread is one giant excuse to show pictures of the bikes you own. There is no question in here. You own the best fork there is for DH (BoXXer WC) along with offerings from Marocchi, Avalanche and Manitou. You know what air vs. coil feels like. You know what high-end...

    Hey carbon gurus! Info please...

    Well I'd be interested to hear if anyone has any more info regarding the methods used in even just the assembly and manufacture of their products - be it frames, tires, whatever.

    Hey carbon gurus! Info please...

    1. Don't drive a car. I ride or walk everywhere and take the bus when it's raining or snowing too hard. 2. Whistler and most of BC runs off of hydro-electric power. Greener energy 3. None of that has anything to do with the environmental impact of producing the frames and components we...

    Hey carbon gurus! Info please...

    Thanks BCD - couldn't find much other than the process of manufacture for the precursors.

    Hey carbon gurus! Info please...

    I never hold on to a bike for more than 3 years. Which got me thinking about the environmental cost of it all. When I put together my wheels this year I went with King based in large part on their environmental practices. Taking into account all of the manufacture costs, what frame...

    I've been running the Fizik Arione road saddle for over a year and it's the cats nuts! Long for multi positions, but light at 215 grams. Fantatstic DH saddle!

    Road product that was actually WORTH the $$?

    I suppose we can open this up to apparel too: I'd have to go with my Assos Windstopper vest. Expensive as hell, but unbelievably versatile and keeps me from getting cold without overheating. I haven't tried any other windbreaking vests, but I can defnately recommend the Assos.

    Road product that was actually WORTH the $$?

    Okay so for some reason road parts in particular seem to be SUPER expensive for relatively small gains in performance. In my 2 years of riding road I have come across only 1 part that I wouldn't ride without despite the steep price - my Arione saddle. Relatively light, not overly padded and...
