Afraid not, but I have a friend with one, and he uses it all the time.

I think it should work well for Super D.

There are a lot of trails around AZ where most of the trail is pretty average technically, but have a few spots that are heinous. The GD works well for that, and I'd think it would be ideal for Super-D

Good morning,

Pretty much nailed the hardtail together last night with the exception of the cabling. Got some Maxxis UST Crossmarks on this set up. Man, they sealed up to the rims nicely! Can't wait to try them out.

Hey Loco! Pop...pop pop....pop.

Morning all. Took the day off and am planning a sweet ride for this afternoon. This will be my 7th day of riding in a row....yow...I hope i still remember how to climb. But first, time to pick up the new digital camera!

Have a good weekend, monkeys!

Just got back from my lunch ride... conditions were friggin PERFECT! 19.9 miles in 1:06. It hurt, and I missed my goal of averaging 20mph... but it was still a good ride.

avg 20 on your own=damn tough!

the knee on stem/top crown usually happened when either you broke a chain, skipped gears, or had the rear tire spin out on something, all while climbing.

it sucks!

I seem to do it while spinning out on wet roots and when bailing after entering a corner too fast.

LOL! There's a vivid image.
I too have gone through the banging my knee phase. I have been riding pretty clean lately (except for the the lovely branch that kicked up and gave me a nice bruise last week). I hope it continues

I seem to do it while spinning out on wet roots and when bailing after entering a corner too fast.

I did it last night a couple of times. I just built up a new frame using some used parts and I replaced the chain with a new one. I figured that I didn't need to replace the chainrings / cassette just yet.

I got everything put together and adjusted up nicely on the stand and took the bike out for a spin. Well the chainrings must have been a little more worn than I originally thought. When I stood up to pedal the chain slipped the chain ring and my knee smacked into the stem and one of my ankles smacked the crank arm. Of course I had no idea why it was happening so I did it about three or four more times to figure it out.

The lesson is old chain rings + new chain = not good.

ok, so i didnt pick up the m1 but i did get one kick ass ride in. my friend and i went to ward reservation in andover and just practiced this one dh run that goes off from the top. its just so fast and so much fun.
