well.. the 4.0 that came on my sx trail is getting a bit old, and i'm tired of not having any adjustments, but now i cant find any 9.0 X 2.75 roccos or dhx's for sale anywhere on the web.. i guess sx trails must have a kind of oddball rear shock? i have seen pictures of them with roocos and...
yea, that dang helmet cam was cursed! the first day i used it i got a flat tire at the top of the mountain, and the day of this footage i had a brken chain and the camera was too far up.. and i crashed hard with the cam on but it had run out of batteries before the crash so that didnt get on...
just 2 quick questions i cant find the answer to anywhere...
how much does the demo 7 frame weigh?
how much does the sx trail frame weigh?
thanks a lot!
yea.. ridemonkey discount? hahah
i guess about 1000 does seem pretty fair, i hadnt found the sx trail frames you guys are talking about but yea, i would rather buy on ebay than sell because its too tempting to sell for a lot less than its worth when you have a bunch of low offers on ebay.
So, i have concluded it is finally time to get a new frame, not because the sx trail is bad or anything, but i want something a little more for Dh, (but still some dirt jumping). So, i think a demo 7 should fit that bill pretty good.
Heres the problem, i have looked all around the internet...
heres another from a diffrent angle, same day...
AND TO ANYONE LEARNING, NOTICE IN FIRST PICTURE THAT ONE MUST BE REALLY FRONT HEAVY, like almost to the point of being really uncomfortable. this was the key to learning this much
BUT, NOTICE IN THE LAST PICTURE, I WAS STILL NOT LEANED FORWARD...
yea, a tramp bike was one of the most helpful things to get me to this point, and the bigger and heaver the tramp bike the better! by pic 5 i tried to get my leg up but it was definatly too late
i'll put a sequence up tonight from a side angle that might look cool too:rockout:
i went dirtjump jumping the other day since alaska is really boring and one has to work for any downhill in this area, and it was kind of boring and i didnt even plan on trying anything new, but damn travis tried a 3, and so i tried a tailwhip, and the end result was a bent brake lever and a...
dang, i know i've seen your posts before too!
but yea i totally remember your, and you buddy! but yea, unfortunatly i am back in Alaska.. doing school and crap :( and yesterday i was doing some "urban dh" because my subdivision is on a huge hillside and its really odd terrain here, so like all...
hmm, hadn't really thought of a sunday, i don't know much about them except i've heard that they are really race specific..? and i am kind of looking for a bike that freerides well too. would a sunday be good for jumping and freeride stuff?
nah, i'm not an employee, just good friends and sponsored with a shop, but there arent any more races untill next summer for me so i hope my buddy wouldnt be mad if i swapped out the frames, because hes a giant dealer but he knows i love specialized.
thanks for all your imput! it is going to...
I want to sell my sx trail when the snow flies so i can buy a giant glory dh. I can get it for less than half price, so its obvious that its a hard opportunity to pass up. i will either keep the giant frame, or buy a new demo 8 frame but the main reason i am doing this is just to get the parts...
