    Raw'd frame protection?

    Awesome, so I don't really have to do anything to it? I ride in pretty wet conditions, I just want to make sure not having any powder on the frame will make it weaker, or something of that nature.

    Raw'd frame protection?

    I'm picking up a frame today, that has the paint stripped off of it. My original thought was to get it powder coated, but the rawed look is really starting to grow on me. My question is this; Do I have to do anything to the frame to keep it safe? I'm guessing it's not really ideal to just...

    Help removing Saint cranks?

    Ah, so this step would require a BB tool wouldn't it? I'll probably have to head up to the shop to get that taken off.

    Help removing Saint cranks?

    Right on, thank you very much! Do the BB cups unthread pretty easily?

    Help removing Saint cranks?

    Ok, so someones coming to take a look at the frame I'm selling tomorrow, and I need to remove the cranks. I don't have many tools (basic wrenches, a socket set, etc) and I've never done this before. I've gotten the non drive side crank arm off. Now, to proceed what do I do? Do I tap the...

    6Point mini DH spring help

    Ok, so I had a deal for a Perp but it fell through. I've decided to just bite the bullet and build up the 6Point frame I have sitting in my room that I was trying to sell. Anyways, I plan on going for a mini DH type build, and using it as a do it all bike. I'm hoping some people on here...

    hoop replacement question

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but I have a wheel question. I'm going to buy a set of Specialized wheels from a Demo 7. The hoops are trashed, but the hubs are perfect. I have to get them shipped to me, so my question is this; Is it worth paying the extra for shipping to keep the...

    05 DHR for freeride??

    Interesting, that seems like it might work. And it'd be loads cheaper than a Hammerschmidt set up! Thanks for pointing that out.

    05 DHR for freeride??

    Ok so this is probably an odd question, but I have an 05 Turner DHR frame sitting in my room collecting dust. I'm looking to build up a new freeride bike this season, something that can take a front derailleur; however I noticed the Hammerschmidt, and thought this might work. I've read that...

    Ultimate DJ frame?

    There was a thread in this forum a while ago, and it had some DJ frame that was $800ish...super light, integrated headset, etc. I have someone looking for the link, but I can't seem to find it...does anyone happen to know the make of the frame? Odd, real broad question I know but I can't...

    2007 DJ2 travel help

    I have a 2007 DJ2, however it's only 80mm and 100mm would suit my frame better. Are they internally adjustable somehow? The shop I went to was pretty useless, and basically told me to buy a new fork.

    Canfield Lucky sizing help!

    Hey, hopefully someone can help me out with this! I'm looking at buying a Canfield Lucky frame, size medium but I'm not sure if it'll fit that well for me. I'm about 5'8, and ride a little of everything. I've tried searching the web for some sizing help, but haven't had much luck. I'm...

    New Bike Help!

    So, it's come the time to choose a ride for the new season, as my frame will be gone for warranty for a couple months. I've narrowed it down to either a Devinci Wilson 2, or a Giant Glory 8. Both are stock, 07 and the same price. I ride a little of everything, and do require the...

    DH rig build

    I'm building up my first long travel bike, and I'd like a little input from the guys that've been at it for a while. I'm trying to build it on the lighter side, I've always wanted to gram count (not really sure why) so I'd like to aim for the 38-39 lb range... Anyways, here are my idea's so...

    Stylo for DH?

    Lots of mixed reviews..but then, it's to be expected as some are much harder on components than others. The newer ones seem to be much better built than the older, so I think they'd hold up a little better. I'd love to get a set of Atlas cranks, I'd much rather support a Canadian...

    Stylo for DH?

    I was looking for a rather lightweight crankset, and I came across the new Truvativ Stylo's. They, to me, look pretty close to the FSA Gravity Lights I was going to get, minus the chromo pedal inserts. I know there's a thread or two about the older style Stylo's being not so great for DH...

    Ti spring on a DHX

    Ok, I bought myself a new frame, and it came with a 9.5x3 DHX 5.0. The spring that's on it is a 3.25" stroke, I was wondering if it'd affect it in any way if I ran a 3.0" stroke spring? They're more common, and easier to come across. Thanks for any help!

    DHR porn!

    They sure do sell shocks. You can get the DHX with the remote for $299 off their site. If someone wants to trade a basically new DHR (05, but it's being warrantied, any color off the turner site) for a Highline msg me!
