    Canadian Monkeys - Online Shops

    Thanks for the head's up @konifere, just ordered one. At 5'7", I went for a size small. Reach is close to my medium hd5, which I find very comfortable. Never really cared about fatbike but I figured that at this price, even if I end up using it only 3-4 times every winter for a few years it'll...

    Canadian Monkeys - Online Shops

    Its a crown race for the 1-1/8 chris king headset on my road bike. They call it a "base plate". Shops around here don't carry it but they can order it for 72$ plus taxes and its gonna take 2-4 weeks to receive. That shop, Bike fit, sells it for 23$. I can't bring myself to pay 80$ for a crown...

    New Whip? New toys for the dependable steed?

    I'm curious about the shock extender. I'm hoping to use a 200mm x 57mm shock on a bike that needs 210mm x 55mm and I'm not finding anything aftermarket that would that.

    New Works Components offset headset cups

    I would go moar slackzz with a -2 headset. In my experience its steepenz the seat tube angle by close to the same thing, which is nice on them giantzz. For the reach, you could maybe compensate by slamming the shit out of that stem and go with a handlebar that is a little wider.

    Cheap brake dillema m6000 vs m7000

    It might be because the bleeding technique is a bit different than Shimano or Sram. When you know how to do it, I would say its Shimano level of difficulty. NSMB has both a review of the brakes and an article on how to bleed them. Check it out if you're curious.

    Hey all, would anyone have a pair of dead xt brake lever that I could canibalize for parts? I'm specifically looking for a set of lever blade.

    New Whip? New toys for the dependable steed?

    Disagree, its the absence of visor that define a gaper. Goggleless full face(with visor) riders are the equivalent of the 1990's helmetless hockey players.

    '13 Turner DHR sizing/ reviews?

    I don't have much to contribute to this thread other than to say that I was riding at MSA yesterday and saw two guys on DHRs. Man, they still look good in the wild(the bikes, not the guys). Not as shiny as more recent plastic bicyclette, but the classic design and the quality of the craftmanship...
