    Mt Snow Bike Fest DH

    Not sure why everyone is so amazed about the parking fee, its been the same thing for the past X number of years at the National event. (I realize this isn’t Nationals, but its Mt Snow's big replacement event for the year) Not saying I agree with it, nothing grinds my gears more than paying...

    Raw or Polished Aluminum Finish?

    FINALLY FINISHED! The swingarm powder coating was a PITA! :evil: Think it came out pretty good.. The finish is good from far but far from good. Pretty happy with it overall, Polishing it wasnt bad but stripping it s^ck3d. If I took more time to prep it and some wet...

    Fox 40 Rebound...Stuck on?

    Hey Monkeys So headed up to Jiminy Peak, MA today for some riding/watching the ECCC race. Bike was nice and clean, ready to go. After my first run my 40's rebound was basically stuck on. I backed the rebound knob full out and the rebound was still 100% on (so much so I could hardly pull...

    Best Fox Fork for a Specialized SX (not SX Trail)

    I have an '06 SX with a RS Pike w/ U-turn and dual air. Works awesome, drop it to 110 for dual racing and increase it to 125-140mm for trail riding. Nice to have on-the-fly travel adjustment. I was never a fan of the older Uturns (plastic knob and never seemed to work) but the newer pikes have...

    Whos running a leatt brace ,and how are they with armor

    I bought and wore the Leatt Brace for about 3 hours at Mountain Creek.. I dont know if it is just me, but when I drop the back 'flap' all the way down, my helmet still hits it when I look up/ahead. Is this happening to anyone else? Other than that its great, but couldnt even wear it for half a...
