    Reverb AXS - Upsize?

    What parts kit would one need to but to increase/decrease the size to accommodate a larger or smaller seat tube size? Can one replace the "lower post" and all the associated seals, clips, etc...?

    Shock hardware

    Have you guys ever heard of a compatibility issue using the 5 piece Fox hardware on a Rock Shox shock? My Nomad 3 eats DU bushings, and I was advised to use the 5-piece flanged bushing over a regular DU. The claim being that they last longer and easier to replace. All sounds good. The dude...

    Calliper leak check

    I recently goofed and pumped one of the pistons too far out of my calliper. I was in the middle of a bleed, so kinda just panicked and slipped it straight back in. I sprayed everything down with alcohol and wiped it down and finished up the bleed. Cleaned everything (I thought) before I...

    Any mid-century furniture experts amongst you bums?

    The Mrs and I just picked up some pretty neat furniture. Alas, not all of it will fit in our place. It is from RS Associates Montreal and looks like this: It’s pretty damned cool. Should I be getting back in the GG queue?

    Lubricate Fox Transfer post

    I have a Race Face Turbine R post which apparently is the same as the Fox Transfer. Manuals and online hunting have turned up bare on the subject. How does one lubricate the seals? Is there no way to adjust the pressure in the spring? Mine is still working great, but it’s starting to get a...

    Mattoc Pro vs Pike

    Does anyone here have real world experience on both of these forks? I’ve seized the opportunity and picked up a brand new Mattoc Pro (II, I think). I’m currently on a 2015 Pike, retrofitted with the Debonair spring. I love it. It’s awesome. It is so supple off the top... just so damned...

    In these times of uncertainty...

    I wonder about the word.

    Brake Pads and brake pump

    My 9000 series XTRs were amazing. Were. I'm now back to where they feel great after a bleed, but the bleed only lasts a couple of rides then they get spongy and unpredictable again. My pads are getting a little old, but I'd say there's still about 50% of thickness left. Is this to be...

    Oval Kool Aid

    So I did some drunk shopping and bought some bits on the Oneup website. I picked up a slick new black chain, a fancy top guide, and a 32t oval chainring. I was pretty sure I ordered a 30t, but nay, I got a 32t. So, I currently push a 30t up front, with an 11-42t cassette. (Yeah, I know, you...

    Mitsubishi?

    I've got a line on a barely used 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavour Limited. 60,000 miles (miles!) Kinda ugly, but cheap (as much as I paid for my Yeti!), and I've read lots of good things. Has a hitch, roof rack, ready to roll. We don't see a lot of Mistubishis around here... I certainly won't get...

    Shock Hardware

    I am confuse. My Nomad 3 is eating rear DU bushings at the rear end. It appears my shock hardware is toast. I have the stock aluminum version, which, according to this: http://bikesheet.com/bikes/2015SantaCruzNomadCCC1StandardSMLXL.html is 22mmx8mm. What dimensions are these? I have a...

    Dirt Jumper?

    Thinking of getting one for the sake of putzing around with the kids. There are a couple of pump tracks nearby, and I figure that's the tool for the jorb. I've seen a couple of Specialized P2s for sale near me for a couple hundred bucks. Are they terrible?

    Dork Logging

    My Olympian sister in law just handed over her old Polar M400 GPS watch with a heart rate monitor and everything. It's kinda neat. I already use Strava with my iPhone 6, and have had my doubts towards its accuracy and just assumed my M400 would be far superior in terms of GPS accuracy. When I...

    Looney Tunes - 3 Little Pigs

    My 4 year old is on a 3 little pigs kick. I've been trying to find the Looney Tunes cartoon version where the big bad wolf says: "I'll huff, and I'll puff and I'll BLLLLOLOLOLLLOLOLLOLOLOW your house down!" ("Blow" said with the head shake, waggly cheek emphasis) My memory fails me. I...

    July 4th in Leavenworth

    I totally forgot about ride reports, so I figured I'd hash something together... Better late than never, marginally. Some riding buddies got together this summer and we decided that we'd head south for our annual "guys weekend" ride. After much deliberation, we decided to make it a "little...

    XT med cage on an XTR parellelogram?

    So, would this combo be possible? I'm curious if I can turn a long cage XTR RD into a med cage using my new RAD cage and the bits I have from on XT. What say ye?
