    reducing marzocchi travel

    did a bit of research, and while I didn't find any information on the project, I did find out that the fork I have is not the 'all mountain 2' but rather the 'am2' which lacks the all mountain's travel adjustment and ssv open bath damping.

    reducing marzocchi travel

    looking for quality tips from folks with experience here. I have an '06 marzocchi All Mountain 2, fork. I have put very few miles on it, because its a bit too long for my taste at 130mm. Other than the travel length I really like the fork. What I want to do is drop the travel (and overall fork...

    its mighty spam, but I need help

    almost forgot to mention, an inherent trouble with vagabond couch-surfing is that I can't very well keep tabs on the forum, so if anyone can help me out give me a call at 360-970-5475 or e-mail me at 'niall.macgregor@gmail.com' or 'the_niall@singlespeed.net' thanks.

    its mighty spam, but I need help

    Some of you might know me, but probably not unless you live in Olympia and frequent olympic outfitters, rode at my old house on the westside, or spent a lot of time in capitol forest summer before last, as I use the forum primarily for trying to offload my ever-accumulating collection of bike...

    Moving to Ashland

    not sure if I can post an ad here, but I'll try...

    I periodically have road bikes and parts that I need to sell, as well as occaisionally need something to buy for a road bike. I am definately down with having a buy and sell section inside to road bike forum for this purpose because the general buy and sell is dominated by mtn bike stuff, and it...

    late 70's steel lugged road frame handbuilt by 'miki' in osaka japan slightly modified to be simply single. not sure what the size is, but I'm guessing between 58 and 60 I built this bike from scratch to be my commuter at the beginning of the year, starting with a brand-new powder coating. I...

    Compact Hydraulic Brake levers

    I'm certainly not fixed to using hayes, actually I have been unimpressed thus far, it just happened to be what was on hand. I do however, apprciate the availability and the affordability of replacement parts for the hayes system. I am interested in hope's products, especially their 'mini...

    urban ss frame?

    My number one suggestion would be an azonic steelhead frame. It's a bombproof frame built up around the basis of urban/park/dirtjump riding. it has replacable dropouts in case you decide that singlespeeding is not for you, and best of all it retails somewhere in the range of $350 (depending on...

    Compact Hydraulic Brake levers

    I have indeed concidered that option, but I do live in the northwest, and ride in the perpetually muddy capitol forest where the unrivaled stopping power and modulation of hydraulics in adverse conditions is certainly appreciated. not to mention the benefits of a fully enclosed non-corrosive...
