    Any front derailleur fans, Hitler fans?

    I'm still using a front mech and I'm pretty sure I'm the last one. From the reactions I get you'd think a front derailleur was reponsible for mass genocide. I never throw a chain, I ride as hard as 41 year old body will let me and it shifts perfect. Even better with one shift i can cover half...

    Good tubeless downhill rim options

    I have a customer needing some new rims, she wants tubeless and has trashed her DT FR 6.1d's. As far as dedicated tubeless rims is Mavic 823's it? How do the Sun MTX 33's do in a tubeless setup? Stan's Flows are NOT an option, not tough enough. Any suggestions?

    Shimano 820 brake first impresions

    After a year and a half on avid code r brakes (and a dissappointingfew 2 years on the origina codes) I decided I wanted a change. The code r brakes had done a pretty good job, but after switching to xt trails on the am bike felt wooden, with no modulation. The install was straight forward...

    Best Air line for bikes?

    I'm going to Whistler for a week in July w/ my wife. Flying LAX to Vancouver. I turned this up on my research. It helps a little. http://consumerist.com/2010/03/whats-the-best-airline-for-bringing-my-bike.html Air Canada seems pretty good, $50 each way. I've flown w/ Alaska and they were...

    New trail/AM bike time!

    It looks like I have found a buyer for my 6.6:) So it's time to upgrade. I've been pretty happy with this bike overall but I'd like improvement in a couple areas: Stiffness and geometry and weight. It was a little flexy, I'm 160 and could feel some flex in hard cornering. The BB was too high...

    The temptation of the 951

    I've got the jones! The Intense banner is calling my name again. I've been on a 2006 Cove Shocker DH since Nov of that year. It is a sweet bike, pedals pretty good, corners pretty good, decent braking habits and flawless reliability and quality. I ride DH a fair amount, 4,000 to 8,000'...

So I'm looking at road riding as a nice way to mix up my riding and better my fitness for mtb's. I'm kinda thinking of a cx bike (Spec Tricross) I figure its...
