    My V10.

    Thanks guys, I'm really happy with how this bike turned out. The V10 really does feel like a cloud floating down the trail. The thing rips. Ya the bars are 31 inches wide. Before I got them I figured I would be cutting them down, but after a couple rides I think they feel mint. I was running...

    Amateur Rider Down

    That was my brother. I didn't get to see the crash happen, nor was I near the rock garden. But one of my buddies was there and said it was a pretty gnarly crash. He was taken by helicopter to Morristown hospital, about 45 mins from Diablo. Once we arrived there he was in cat-scan and the...

    My Spankin' New Demo 8

    Im not sure on the wheelbase but it is a pretty longish bike. Very stable at speed, but still rails corners. Having a 64 degree headtube angle probably makes it look a bit longer.

    My Spankin' New Demo 8

    Already did scratch it up. During the first ride on it I took a nice digger and scratched the downtube a little bit and put a small ding in the front wheel. Im glad I got the first crash out of the way though. :happydance:

    My Spankin' New Demo 8

    Ya, I did have to use the ISCG adaptor becuase the pattern on the guide did not match up with the frame. What do you mean oversized CK cups, its just a regular 1 1/8 nothreadset, not the deep press ones. I like the stickers on there now, especially since I matched some of the other parts...

    My Spankin' New Demo 8

    Just finished up my new rig for the season. I have been slowly piecing it together for the last 6 months, so I'm pretty stoked that its all done. I can't wait to take it to the local DH to get it dialed in and see how it rides. Here are the specs: Frame- Demo 8, size medium Shock - Fox...

    That shot of Fairclough would be sick if he was wearing a helmet, so his goofy mug wanst on my background.

    trek

    I would probably reccomend the 6 point instead if you do more trail riding. But still want it to hold up to diablo and jumping.

    Anyone riding a Giant Reign X?

    I dont think the Reign X would have any troubles racing DH. Around where I live (New England) it would make a pretty killer downhill bike. Although I have a demo 8 which will be taking care of all the racing and lift access riding I'll be doing. While I primarily bought the Reign X for...

    Anyone riding a Giant Reign X?

    Ive had my Reign X for a couple months now and it has been super. I use it for trail riding with some jumps and drops thrown in. It feels great on downhill-ish trails, really sucks everything up and feel good on the square edge stuff. The bike also pedals really well (although Im having a...

    My new Reign X

    The deitys have been awesome cranks. I havent had a single issue with them, and they havent even started creeking like most other cranks Ive ran. I also have a set of saints and I couldnt notice a difference in weight just by holding them. The only reason I want to ditch the deity cranks is to...

    My new Reign X

    hey thanks for the comments. I do plan on swapping out some parts over the winter to lighten it up a bit. Those are deity cranks which are 170mm. The frame is more than strong enough for what I'll be using it for... AM type stuff with some jumping and hucking, I have a demo 8 which I'll...
