    fiveten shoes.. quick size question

    Here's a thought, buy a couple sizes try them on in you're home and send back the ones that don't fit. If you order from zappos or mountain gear they will have no problem taking them back. This is how I fit all my $400+ mountaineering boots.

    for the sport climbing monkeys

    So is there really a purpose to what you're doing. It looks like something we'd put together after a night of drinking. Are you actually planning on belaying or just trailing the rope? No offense to you and you're climbing prowess but this is how bad things happen.

    01 Bullit Question?

    So I've got an 01 bullit with the shorter Vanilla RC rear shock. Were there changes since then to to frame preventing running a 8.5" i2i shock like the newer ones or was the shuttle mounting location changed to give more room. Thanks.

    Hard shell camera cases for biking??

    These are the best cases I've found http://www.pelican.com/ . I've taken them climbing, rafting, riding and have gone through lots of abuse. They've never leaked or damaged anything that was put inside them.

    Well I live in Cleveland go to school in Columbus and went to school at RIT 2 years before this one. Rochester def had the best riding compared to cleveland. There isn't anything for dh/fr/riding. The guys at RIT, U of R and the draco boys are great to ride with.

    Diameter: Ruffian vs Lizard Skin Logo grips

    I've been using the Logo's for a month now and they're perfect as far as size I think. I've got ruff's on my other bike and the logo's are just a little bigger but no where close to the rouge's. I'd say go for a pain.

    I just got a pair of the specialized mags and they're awesome. Tons of grip with a low profile. They're like 100x better than the primos that I was using. They've got replaceable pins too which is a nice feature.

    SGS sizing help

    I'm 6'5" and ride a large and it feels perfect. So I think the med is def for you. Lumpy, I think you'll find the large frame big enough, maybe a little cramped in the cockpit but when out of the saddle it's not noticable

    Is this bad?

    You can smooth it out with clear hard nail polish, then you can wet sand it down with 1000 grit paper and you'll be good to go.
