...that despite having your bikes already built up, you keep looking at mailorder sites and buy and sell forums??? You might not need anything but just feel compelled to 'see' what's for sale somewhere?

Example: For me, I'm just waiting on my rims and I'm done. Although lately I've been thinking of getting rid of my rear shock to get another one that has 0.25" of extra stroke to get a bit more travel. Maybe it's just boredom. It's disgusting!

I browse B&S type forums all the time. You never know when you're going to run across a screaming deal, or something you might not think of needing.

I'm buying something right now that I wouldn't have thought of needing/wanting, but it's there, and it's a good price, so I'm buying it.

I tell you its an epidemic.

I got my SX on January 16th. Since then i am looking for wheels. My new wheelset is still at the LBS waiting for spokes, and i am already looking at buying 2 more bikes!!!! A road bike and a heavy DH/FR bike (Banshee).

Damn. I wont settle... i am always looking for new stuff... luckily...i can have them now without asking parents... (the old days)... its good to be a working man

They are awesome! They got second place in their first DH race on my face


And I did still have money in my account when I bought those.... I think it was when I wrote my rent check out of the wrong account that I went wrong......
