    Crankset - Zee, Saint, Truvativ Descendants

    I have used Descendants on two different bikes the last two seasons. Two years on a 165mm arm on my DH bike, a second set on my GT distortion this year in all conditions. I have zero complaints. Runs awesome with straitline silent guide. For the money, tough to beat I think.

    Colorado - DH in late Sept/Early Oct.

    Thanks MTG. Sounds awesome. Is Captain Jacks/Palmer Park shuttle locations? I watched a video of I think Captain Jacks, and it looked like they shuttled it?? Or am I wrong. Maybe it was a park halfway location, ride to top, ride down, ride back up to car. Do you know of groups or bike shops that...

    Quite chain guide for Devinci Wilson?

    Yes they do. You just need to order the ones 'specifically' made for Saint cranks. Not sure the difference, as I did not run Saints, but there is two Specific versions (Saint and Regular).

    Quite chain guide for Devinci Wilson?

    I ran the Straitline Silent Guide last year. Loved it. Previously used E13 and MRP guides. To me Straitline Silent Guide the quietest, with zero thrown chains/etc. Can't get that 'cool' open chainring/taco chainguide look - but I am ok with that. Silent Guide for me this year again on new bike.

    Morewood Izimu shock recommendation

    I had a 2011 Izimu (new), and rode it summer 2012. For what its worth - I just never felt like I got it right. I guess thats the issue with CCBD for some riders like me, if you don't get it perfect - well it just doesn't feel all that incredible. Yes I contacted and have the email from Cane...
