Hey diesel... did you replace the stock bolts on your cranks? I take it you need a puller using those bolts you have on there.

This is assuming that MM with the avids is yours. While we're on the topic, how is the 8" avid? How much did you pay?

yea shes mine.

the 8" rules except my fork was already creaking before i put it on there and im a little worried about how long it will hold up. but there is a SERIOUS difference in power and i thought my 6" was pretty damn tough.

all the bolts on the profiles are stock actually. are you talkin about the bolt that goes into the axel? I actually do not have to use a puller, the press fit between the crank and axel isnt all that tight...i can put them on/off with my hand.

Ahh yes cryofit creak. Mine is brutal. Is that a Z3 QR20? My freind snapped one of those, and my other freind just sent one in for warranty a little while ago. I've sent my fork in for creaking once already too.

How's the modulation with the 8"? Better? Which levers are you using with them?

Yeah, I meant that bolt. Looks like one of those "hop-up kit" bolts.

****e!

It's been a while since I checked this thread...
There is some damn fine bike porn floatin' in here...

That On-One is built up so nicely (damn clean),
An Imperial looking like it is exactly in its element by missing no touch (mmm Arrow!),
And the nicest ex-patriate trailstar I ever did see (*2002 LT*)!

Good stuff fellas my mind is blown... I gotta get back on a HT.

no its really not about manners. i personally think being put on this thread is a compliment and it is in fact good manners to take a picture that is copyright PINKBIKE (not the owner of the bike) and put it in this thread, a thread that pays tribute to dreambikes.

i knew SOMEDAY some anal freak would roll up into this thread and i knew that person would be from pinkbike and i knew theyd get all huffypuffy about thier bike being in this thread. lemme just say it is most certainly about copyright. im not about to email every person who owns a sweet hardtail and decides to post it on pinkbike and ask them if i can LINK TO IT (not even download it and post it on my own server). sorry you post it on pinkbike it becomes pinkbike property, if pinkbike wants to contact me or anyone else who has linked to a pic on thier site we'll deal with that. as for this guys bommer, i'd delete that post, he doesnt deserve to part of this showcase IMO.
