    Bike Shop

    I have an old G-spot sitting at my house, pm me if ya ever need a replacement shock or swingarm/parts. Most shops will carry enough of those kinds of nuts/bolts to cover ya for the brands they carry, and even then they may end up calling like you did. I would stick with Iron Horse dealers...

    Chains

    So I am thinking that a powerlink wouldn't be as strong lateraly (can't flex as much as a regular link) but would be stronger when getting pulled. I don't know if you follow, but i would think that crosschaining would do more damage to a powerlink than say, pedal-kicking or other similar...

    Different tool for Facing a Ti Headtube?

    Well, just a word of caution. According to a tool sharpening guy, if the tool isnt super sharp, it won't cut Ti and it will dull the tool. If the tool has a lot of use on it, get it sharpened first.

    Chains

    That's weird, cuz the shops guys and I never break chains at the powerlink, we always break em elsewhere and then put in another powerlink. Question- The powerlink isn't 'press fit' like the other links. The plates are the same thickness, but the pin is attached on one side to the plate. So...

    Isn't the Rohloff Trials version 8-spd anyway? It seems like 8-speed is better for every kind of riding anyway. Get rid of 9-spd!;)

    Chains

    Ok, so I know that the Rohloff SLT-99 is like the ultimate trials chain, but I was wondering what other chains are worthy of use. I have had bad luck with shimano chains and good luck with the Sram PC-69. Any other good chains out there that aren't as expensive or hard to get as the Rohloff?

    New tires

    I like kevlar IRC Mythos XC 2.1's. They hook up suprisingly well and aren't too expensive.

    How to Remove XTR Spider?

    Um, I can't think of anything else that would help. You got the right tool. Mine came with the BBT-8 (Dunno why). Maybe more leverage?:confused:

    Jumping Tips anyone?

    Ya, I find that if I am going for a decent sized (for me) or big jump that doing something in the air makes me less squirly on landing. With a small jump or rythem section I find that pumping in the air will accomplish the same "taking your mind off the landing" but will allow you to continue...
