You've just been spying i think. Or it could be that next to a DH bike, a pimped out road bike is about as cool as it gets.

A few weeks ago they were loading a Foes Mono with a 9" fork, 2.5" tires and a chain guide. And a Giant AC also with a big dual-crown and long travel plates. Full DH armor too, but the 14 year old kids were locals so they let 'em slide.

The DC is probably what's keeping you off the lift, I'll bet they'd let the other stuff go without it.

"Colin Bailey" is local. :devil:

If your bike only has two chain rings they won't let you on the lift?:wonky2:

yeah the triple chainring is the thing they look for- dual crown is ok under 6". your best bet is mammoth, or mt wilson for shuttling
