    deam gasoline prices...

    in california, home of the highest gas prices on the mainland, i pay $3.09 for the high octane 91. that translates to about $2.88 for regular. and those are the cheaper prices.

    Cassettes: Sram 990 vs Shimano xt

    i wanna upgrade my 8 speed to a 9 speed and i have decided to go with sram shifters/deraileurs (x9 or x0). i haven't decided on a cassette to go with all this yet. just looking for something that shifts well. weight is important, but not a priority.

    XO 2006 Cage..Small, Medium or long ??

    you would need a long for both. you MIGHT be able to get away with a med cage for your 2 ring, but you would need to be very very careful what gears you are riding in.

    Long travel trail fork

    i am currently building an ih yakuza frame as a long travel trail bike. i have ordered a dhx5 coil for the rear giving me 7" of travel. i'm trying to decide now on a fork. i have been leaning towards the 66 for a little while now. since the swap from the 888 lowers, the 66 is looking nicer...
