    Ramped 32t ring?

    make sure the ring fits your cranks sooner than the night before the race. I recently put my diablous cranks fof my DH bike onto my enduro for use as my DH bike (the DH bike is broken) and went to switch the rings off my hones to the diablous. Higher end shimano rings are flared on both the left...

    Hub Question?

    if you call up hadley, I'm almost positive they offer custom drillings because i've seen a similiar question asked a couple years ago for probably a 135 so i'm sure they'd offer it for a 150. is the 823 or whatever it's called the same rim as a deemax?

    Enduros; pro/con & compairable bikes

    appears to be about 14.25. That is with the steeper angles/ high BB shock shuttle, the 36 cranked to full travel, minion dhf 2.3 in the back and highroller 2.3 up front

    Enduros; pro/con & compairable bikes

    I've got an 07 enduro pro. Main drawback is they didn't design the frame to accomadate the dhx air that's on it. This means that they preset the boost valve pressure to what they consider a good average pressure. I'm much larger than the average rider so this thing doesn't exactly pedal all that...

    Helmet for a pumpkinhead

    helmets: I wear a xxl bern helmet and fits me perfect (they also make a xxxl helmet FYI). I do not fit in a xl/xxl TLD d2. I run an old specialized s2 helmet for road and xc and it fits. For a DH helemt i run a xxl 661 DOT helmet (forget the name but it's an 07) that fits once it's on with the...

    Vacuum Cleaner

    i sold vacuums a few years ago at sears. no joke. sold microwaves and sewing machines too. dyson performed better when used for a long time without emptying. the beaterbar wasn't as good as the kenmore motorized ones. initial suction wasn't as good as the kenmore either. there are obviously...

    Bighit versatility

    i use my bighit as a trailbike as well as my DH bike. a scoper post helps alot with riding it as a trailbike. i have an 04 expert and have replaced almost everything so far, gearing it more toward shuttle runs and DH racing as the weight has gone up to i think around 43 or so. i'm 270 lbs with...

    Arrow DHX vs Trailpimps

    i vote for the arrow. i've got a 24" dhx on my bighit and it's been great so far.i;m pretty careless lifting teh rear when plowing into rock gardens and such so the rim takes quite a bit of beating. i weigh 260lbs and yet to dent or bring them out or true. only possible downside of them could be...

    Hadley: 135x10mm TA vs. 135x10mm Ti-bolt

    i jsut order a hadley with 1omm ti last week. a blue anodized one with 108 pt freehub. going on my bighit. when i called hadley, they explained the difference between the 10 alu and 10ti bolts. the ti is supposedly much burlier. make sure you order it with the 108 pt cause apparently if you...

    Swinger springs

    i have a 600 spring on my bighit. it's a 8.75x2.75 swinger 4 way. note: the 550 and 600lb springs i got from manitou are about 12mm longer then the stock 450 one. this limists my options for fitting the shockin different holes in the linkage plates, which sucks cause it only fits in the steep...

    Explicit bike images: Turner six-pack

    frame looks great. are those polished seatstays in the back? kinda like that to black linkage to white front tirangle. that fork looks huge compared to the frame, or maybe it's just all the spacers on top. doesn't look choppered out though. good looking ride :thumb: i think i nitpick...

    05 sherman slider or 04 dual hscv super-T?

    right now i have an 04 jr.t on my bighit expert. i don't like the bobbing of it, the dive if i land front wheel first, or the spike i get when i land rear wheel first. i weigh 250 lbs and use the bike as an all around fun bike right now, doing some hucks, trailriding, lift assisted riding and...

    Titanium tubing?

    in possible support of foolish reasons for using titanium, doesn't ti spark when scraped? or is that just magnesium? don't know why you'd want sparking washers......... but you never know. the roll cages would be kinda cool if they sparked though. it would add to the effects of a serious crash...

    '04 Big Hit Spec forks... any suggestions?

    first of all, it's already been explained as to what a newby is. just someone with a low post count (not all of us are post whores or have been on the site for a long time, or work at a "real" job where we get to be on teh computer). but if you're taking them as calling you a newby at your level...
