    Refinishing my 1200s

    is that an Ecler HAK360 mixer? don't see those too often.. nice mixer though. i used to sell/work on a lot of those a while back, i worked for the US distributor of them for a while. as far as the decks go, replace the pitch fader, the RCA's and keep the look as close to stock as possible...

    '12 Fox Float 32 150 FiT or '11 Rock Shox Revelation 120/150

    I dont know if they've fixed it (probably have), but RS was having issues with the "u-turn" revelations back in 2009 and 2010. I went with a 2010 revelation 'team' 150mm with 20mm QR on my Blur LT and i love it. even if they fixed the issues with them, i'd still say stick with the non travel...

    Any DHers had LASIK?

    i'd agree with everyone else here, i got lasik done 10 years ago, one of the best things i've ever done. you're worrying too much about the 'flap', i get slight halos around lights at night, but nothing too bad. i'd do it again without hesitation.

    Tryin to squeeze some "bike" into this "business" trip

    buses aren't an issue for bikes, they all have racks on the front, and they'll all fit your average AM/FR bike. maybe not if you rock 3.0" wide tires but, well.. any normal 2.5" or less will fit. i dunno about your hotel shuttle, it might not have a bike rack, but it's worth asking. and...

    well ****, this is your opportunity to go buy a < $1000 bike, ride the piss out of it until it breaks (or you break), and then figure it out later.

    New bike or new shock

    now.. i'm a relative newbie when it comes to this stuff.. but wouldn't it be the same thing if you just increased your sag by about .25" ?? basically effectively lowering the bike, increasing the HA, and keeping the same shock. i'm not sure if this would work, you'd probably have to go...
