oster_oops:Alright so I just bought a new ride (Pivot Mach 5). My girlfriend is very athletic and has recently added MTB into long list of outdoor activities. She like many other females was riding an oversized Trek "entry" bike. You guys know the one. Piece of *&^%...! So I figured I'd give her my nibble Specialized Stumpjumper to help improve her technical skills. The bike fit her great. As I'm riding next to her suggesting different lines she comments on how plush the F100 front suspension is. Well I blurt, " wait until you try the breaks." This is after I explained to her different body positions to assume as the trail changes. Well, she obviously remembered my little comment on how your front breaks are most of your stopping power. She continues to push on the front suspension and hits the breaks. I remind you her "entry" ride had V brakes she had to squeeze until her knuckles were white. Well I watch leave her thumbs on the bars and take FOUR fingers and squeeze the front break. Her face immediatly change to OH, *&^^. I appologized and asked her if she knew what an ENDO was. Yeah, I got a pretty sour face in return. She laughed and kept riding. oster_oops:
