Spend any time on the wheels?
Not yet, I'm planning on riding some local trails tomorrow but they are calling for snow and these aren't the kind of trails I would want to ride in the snow. I'll give a report if I do get to ride them. The shock also needs to get set up and I'm a moron so I have a feeling it might take all day.

Plan on buying some new wheels. I have witnessed one get completely demolished in a weekend of racing in Virginia. Like unrideable demolished. But they look so smooth.

I will be riding something along the lines of this. (Bad picture but it is the only one I have right now)

Towing the party line.
i didn't follow the tread to the end what change did they make to the bumpers?
The old bumpers were too soft and basically mushed out of the way. The new ones are substantially harder and work great. I am running my demo with a 40 with no problems.

Also the dude claimed JRA, but apparently had a pretty big crash or something to boot.

well good thing they fixed that, not really surprising he crashed either, they looked more like cracks then dents to me.

My 2010 TR450 weighs about 39.5lbs. I know the 2011 frames cut about .5lb and that Vivid Air likely makes a huge difference. Good job sir.
