    blur 4x

    Yeah, I know SC is planning to release the Blur LT, but the 4x is appealing to me as a trailbike. Those of you who are riding them, have you run them with a 5" travel fork on trails? I can image that they handle well with the 4" fork on fairly flat DJ or 4x terrain, but how about medium to...

    Shimano splined to Hayes

    I was not having much luck with my parameters in the search engine, but I'm sure this info is out there, so if y'all could direct me to some existing threads, that would be great. My question is simple: Can I use Hayes MAG calipers on Shimano center-lock disc brake rotors? I'm getting a...

    Enduro Pro & 36; semi-update

    Cool, thanks for the update. I, for one, am happy to hear that the 36 felt like the TALAS, as I enjoy my current TALAS very much. Anybody have any idea who is selling the 36s right now?

    Bike journalism question

    I suppose. If it's not worth my time, though, I'd rather be out riding, ya' know? There's no glory in being published for the sake of being published.

    Bike journalism question

    I've got an idea for a series of bike-related articles, that I may try to peddle (yes, that's sort of a pun) to a few mags or sites. Does anyone have any idea what the going rate is for such work? Kinda' vague, I know, but any info would help. Thanks!

    Hosted website? Or something?

    I need some info, and could think of no better place than my fellow Monkeys. Here's my situation: I am planning on starting a small cycling-related non-profit. This will be a shoestring endeavor, as you can imagine (just think of how much money is to be made in the for-profit portion of...

    Remove grips-non-destructive

    I use a combination of aforementioned tactics. First, if shifters/levers are present, I loosen them and move them out of the way. Then, with a thin, flat-bladed screwdriver, I pry up a small piece of the grip, and then dripple rubbing alcohol under it. Once a little gets in there, it makes it...

    "A" LIST TRAILS-post canyon

    Last I heard, Hood River County, which owns the land, was working with the local riders to make the trails legit. I'm not sure if that includes signage, though. You could also contact the County Forester and check in on their progress on such matters. On a side note, the County has been a...

    "A" LIST TRAILS-post canyon

    Dude, that sucks! Thumbs are bad to injure; it's hard to do things without them. You'll have to show me all the stuff that's been built in the last couple of months.

    Damn, sorry, I didn't check my email earlier! Well, no doubt you boys had fun up there today, as the weather held. Everybody make it through the day OK? You guys hit that teeter on GP? I still have not worked up the 'nads for that thing. My nemesis has been that skinny at the bottom of...

    Corvallis, OR riders (downhill or XC)?

    OSU is a good school for geography/ecology. I know several people who are now kickin' it pretty good with geo degrees from there (both undergrad and masters). Naw, they're not making stacks of cash, but they like their jobs, and that's what matters. Plus, with your GIS skills, you can cull...

    Corvallis, OR riders (downhill or XC)?

    Shuttle Mary's Peak? Dude, ride up that sucka'! It's a good climb on the singletrack. Not to sound like a mother hen, but please do be careful. We rode it a couple of weeks ago, and saw a fair number of hikers on the trail. It's an awesome ride (one of the best in Oregon), and I'd hate to...
