    Bike and video

    Just got finished killing my wrists and freezing my ass off for this edit with my good friend Gabi. Or if you like Pinkbike, here. Keep an eye on Gabi in the future, took him about five tries to nail a perfectly clicked nollie toboggan and fewer tries than that to get anything else. Took...

    Riding photo + bike photo

    Roof drop 360. Over-rotated by about 50 degrees and crashed...until next time. A friend snapped it for me while filming a web video. The bike I did it on. Two cracks in the stem but rock solid other than that. This forum needs a street thread...

    Cowan carbon dj bike

    Even if the frame is super mega strong, this frame is still confusing as ****. Fixed railed seatpost and that assy-looking geo, not to mention a massive god damn carbon price tag means this thing will not be getting purchased by the frame-killer set. So why make it five pounds heavy? I...

    2012 E13 goodies

    The pedals are cool but I can't see them being better in any way than the Deity Compounds, and that seems to be their direct competition.

    Setting up my 32 float ...

    I've got a 36 Float with a 32 piston. Just checked, it's at 140PSI, with (I think) a maximum of 150PSI. That makes it extremely stiff, I'm about 160ish and my hobby is hucking threes to flat. Fork is at 75mm travel, if it makes a difference. My rebound is from a 36 Van R so I can't help there...

    Deity Streetsweeper

    Thanks guys! I love the Compounds. This is the best of both pedal worlds. Plastic pedals with sealed bearings, metal pins (that thread into a metal nut, not the plastic body), and a super thin large platform. If you've never run a thin pedal, it will blow you away how much better it feels. Oh...

    It's Opinion time.

    Just on the assumption that they did their homework, it isn't as weak as it looks, and Chubey won't die three flipwhips from now... It's ugly as three aborted crack fetuses. God damn it. Wow. I'm trying not to say anything about the geo because they're revising it. I really like the idea of a...

    Sell me on a chainring

    Think about how by design halflink chains have two bends in each link (per side). Now think about how that might affect the strength or stretchiness of a chain. Mixing halflinks and standard links works fine unless you pick a fat-ass halflink and a 3/32" chain, or you're hamfisted with a chain...

    Sell me on a chainring

    3/32" rings, like the E13, are narrower (obviously), but you'll be fine, there are no ill effects. The Profile Imperial, for instance, is also 3/32" but you never hear about that not being suitable for fat chains.

    Sell me on a chainring

    Since the smallest 104BCD ring is a 30t (made by Extralite) and that is most definitely meant for geared chains, you're **** outta luck. Just get an E13 ring in 32t. Yes, it's 3/32", but that doesn't mean a 1/8" chain won't fit. What catastrophe do you think is going to happen exactly? And...

    Good site to buy

    Run as far from those pedals as you can. Nothing but bad news.
