    2009 specialized sx (not trail) !!!!!!!!!!!

    I like it. I still like my D7 Tattoo though, so my opinion will prolly get tossed in the weeds. Ive got a pair of all red I9s looking for a home... that frame will do.

    Cannondale F7 Disk vs. Specialized Rockhopper

    Second that. The RH is also a bit lighter and its probably a little more trail worthy spec' wise. The F7 looks ok, but is better suited to neighborhood use.

    Technique?: turning mid air

    Yup. Tweaking out a whip is not the same as turning to match the angle of a hip landing.

    Bike mechanics always have the weirdest bikes.

    I saw the ring. Does it hold up to curbs and general messing around? Looks like a fun commuter. I just moved closer to the shop so Im looking to build something to get from A to B.

    Tell us a story - blown opportunities to get some

    Second that. I always think of the best things to say or do, around 24 hours later. "Need a moment? Chew on this..." What I would give for a pause button.

    Lyrik 1.5 or 1 1/8?

    Is the E2 significantly lighter than just running a 1.5? Seems like an expensive solution to a 'problem'. Im not sure I like the aesthetics of it either...

    Well I failed.....

    You only die once. Ive ridden street bikes for 30,000 or 40,000 miles, never had an issue and do wheelies, stoppies and burnouts. Im on my second R1 now(wore the first one out). Anyone who says theyre a death sentence shouldnt ride one, and probably shouldnt leave their house. Its all about...

    New Body Armor

    I just bounced off of rocks at that age. Id say save your money to spend on cheap beer and cheaper women in between rides.

    Something I've noticed about women...

    I'm thinking "Rachael Ray" types.... they shoot her from the waist up while shes cooking, but every once in a while, BAM you see what shes working with. I never trust a skinny chef for the same reason. You gotta love food to cook it well.

    Something I've noticed about women...

    Ive noticed if a girl is eating an ice cream and its cold out... shes very likely fat. Also, it seems the fatter the girl, the more likely they are to wear animal prints. Those tight cheetah print stretch pants should come with a warning label: "If you weigh more than the animal this...

    Lyrik 1.5 or 1 1/8?

    Will head tube lengths have to be standardized to accept the tapers in the correct sections? I dont see any way around having just one head tube length shared among different frame sizes.....

    boxxer team v.s. totem solo

    Ill chime in. I have a 1st gen solo air. It did piss oil out of the wiper seals on both sides, but it wasnt enough to slow me down, though it was annoying. After a full days of abuse youll feel the need to wipe the uppers and lowers down. Its a light, stiff fork and is simple to work on(add...

    How do I get the bearings out of an 04 Specialized Enduro?

    Its that center ridge that causes a problem when bearings are paired back to back. Without a proper bearing puller all the above methods will work as long as youre careful. Ive cut the inner races with a small dremel blade, then notched the outer race, and popped it out with a small flat...

    Dt Swiss RWS 10mm fit

    2nd that, even with really thick dropouts you should be well in the clear.

    Sources for pink parts

    Maybe PC the fork lowers? Ill be tearing apart a Fox RLC soon and the lowers will get some treatment for a girl, not sure what direction Im going to take yet.... some sort of fading star pattern I think.

    Sources for pink parts

    One of a g/fs bike: Be warned, cute girl on a pimped pink bike and every tool on an MTB is going to try and holla at her. I know first hand.
