    Vermont trail recommendations

    The wife and I will be staying in Middlesex, VT in mid-September. Found the Montpelier (MAMBA) site and looks like there are some trails close by. Also checked out VMBA's site and it looks like there is a bunch of riding in Stowe. Looking for trail recommendations from people familiar with the...

    which Roco?

    the WC is available in 8.5x2.5, but you're right, they don't make it in a 2.25x7.875, which is what i need. Looks like I'm going with the TST. thanks.

    which Roco?

    looking to get a new rear shock (coil), and found a good deal on '08 Rocos. Was wondering what the difference is between the TST and the RC World Cup versions? This is for my Heckler, which I do a little of everything with -- trail riding, some jumping, and the occasional trip to Diablo. I'm...

    new frame -- DMR Transition or NS Suburban

    been looking for a new street frame, and have narrowed it to a DMR Transition 26 or an NS Suburban. I like the DMR, but does it really weight 7lbs? that's the only detractor for me so far. Have only found one place online (in the U.S.) that carries the NS Suburban -- anybody else selling this...

    rear suspension questions - Heckler w/5th element

    thanks for the replies. I might be interested in giving the 'zocchi spring a try. Best I can make out, the current spring is 2.0 x ?00 (can't read the second no.). What effect would the 2.0 vs. 2.25 have?

    rear suspension questions - Heckler w/5th element

    I recently bought a used 2004 Santa Cruz Heckler w/a 5th element shock. First full susp. bike, so I don't know a lot about rear suspension. Bike is in great shape, but the spring on the 5th is rusted from garage storage. Wanted to replace the spring, but not sure what size I need as I can't read...

    bending rings

    I recently built up a beater for riding around the city and to the bar, and wanted to keep it simple, so I set it up single speed. For cranks, I slapped on an old pair of suntour triple-ring cranks I had laying around, using just the big ring (46) and 14 in the rear (the chainline was perfectly...

    Using a 5 inch fork for XC

    I put a 5" z1 on my Jamis Dragon, which originally came with a 63mm fork, and it was the best thing I ever did. The first few rides it took a while to get used to climbing with a longer fork, but it didn't take long to adjust and now I'm so much faster on the downhills. I wouldn't consider...

    Manitou Gold Label vs. Stance Static

    So I've heard all the horror stories about last year's Stance Static's, but am wondering if they resolved those problems for '06? I'm looking for a 100mm travel fork for my street/dj bike. Currently running a Marz Dropoff Comp (130mm), and want something with less travel and at least some...
