    Anybody using a 7.875x2.25" shock?

    Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered one for my Dixon. Cheaper then sending off my current shock for a servicing.

    2011 Intense M9 -vs- 2012 Canfield Jedi -vs- older 2008 Foes DHS 2.1

    I purchased my Jedi direct and had it shipped to the LBS in Saskatoon. I used all their information for shipping and had no extra charges upon arrival. Maybe a friend in the right place can help you out because the bike is fantastic and the company is almost better.

    Congratulations you are the wiener! I wish that this "Looks like a Trek" thing would go away and die; however, if wishes were horses beggars would ride. PS Looks like a Devinci.

    The Impossible build Need help. Mountain boy in a praire town

    Before I left Saskatoon for Fairbanks, AK, myself and two others built a decent trail out at Blackstrap. If you are interested I can PM you directions. It is about 1 min of DH, but the best trail in the area, unless you head south to Buffalo Pound Provincial Park. For what it is worth, I used my...

    Roadtrip thread, check it out! we will probably be driving by your house

    While in Whistler, did you check out the local brew pubs? Sometimes they have higher % brews. The other odd thing about Canadian beer is the lack of representation from the other provinces. Good luck finding a beer made east of Alberta in BC.

    Roadtrip thread, check it out! we will probably be driving by your house

    Funny that you mentioned that. I will admit that trying to find beer above 5% can be difficult. On the plus side you can always just drink more. I remember thinking the same thing about 'Merican beer, then I moved to Alaska and realized that the craft breweries in the states have really taken...

    Roadtrip thread, check it out! we will probably be driving by your house

    All this complaining about travel into Canada and our ****ty beer is hilarious. I believe that the reason for the increased scrutiny at the border is due to pressure from the States after 911. Like others have mentioned, if you have all your paper work in order and present yourself in a...

    Bulging disc - outcomes?

    A car accident three years ago left me with a L4-L5 and L5-S1 severe disc bulge. My riding has definitely changed and so has my life but with proper core training and stretching I am able to get back to 75% of my activities. When on the bike I am 100% capable but just not for the same length of...

    My previous bike where: 2009 Devinci Wilson 2006 SX Trail 2005 Bighit Lots of others that are outdated The biggest difference I noticed is in the rough, once the trail flattens out I feel that I have to work the bike harder to keep things going, compared to the Wilson. But for high speed, steep...

    I would go for the medium. As I mentioned above 5'11 and i feel the medium is slightly too small.

    2012 canfield jedi

    I have a medium 2012 with an Elka shock and Boxxer R2C2. As mentioned above the hype is true, I find that the bike is capable of taking the harshest lines without missing a beat. The ultimate monster trucker. I have two complaints 1. I am 5'11 and ride a medium - should have gotten a large 2...

    Udi, I first want to thank you for all the great tech tips and info that you provide in a clear and professional manner. My question is, what would cause my 2011 Boxxer R2C2 to use only 7" of travel. I did the following trouble shooting based on what made sense to me: 1. I removed the spring...

    Yes, I guess I should have defined a city. We would be looking at cities that a have a university/college, as my wife is an academic in the making. Regardless of what we define as a city, thanks for the input.

    I have heard great things about Pittsburgh, what is the city like?

    We lived in Vancouver/Squamish for 12yrs, and while it is probably one of my top 10 too, the housing market makes it really unattractive. The reason we are looking at cities in the USA, is that her career opportunities are greater then in Canada.

    What do you think are the top 10 "Mountain Bike" cities in the USA? I am looking for cities that have it all. XC, all mountain, DH and lift access (within a 2hr drive). The reason I am asking is that my wife and I are currently living in Fairbanks, AK and moving within the next 2 years. I...
