Don't forget, I'm a wookie. I run 90mm normally and dropped it to a 70mm for DH. I've never run anything shorter than a 65mm for DH though, as I've never found a bike that allows me to. I put a 60mm on for one day and it was definitely too short. While the bike is designed to be more front heavy, it's not hard to go too far forward.
Never Forget.
if its not an american flag, its probably a bomb

You are supposed to eat too.
How's your knee? Trail ride-able this weekend? Can you think of anything that isn't super far away, that isn't uber steep? My fat ass can't handle straight up, and I'm not sure about your knee.
Yeah. I'm wondering if maybe the 40mm is a hair short. I did feel a bit like the great pedalling of the Yeti went away with the shorter stem. Felt a little less stable going up. Of course, it might have had something to do with my dough-iness due to going to Whistler twice instead of riding trail those days...
I know you're normal sized, but 40 sounds really short.
Interesting in a good, or bad way?
¿Que?
I'm feeling bad right now, but it could be good. There seems to be some high level shake ups going on and how it will pan out is anyones guess.

yup. I'll probably demo a 50 and see how it goes...
The rum in the office is all gone and there are only a couple shots of whiskey left. There is about a dozen beers, I could make a quick go of it and be pretty obnoxious by noon.
He broke his ankle a couple weeks ago jumping out of a perfectly good airplane.
Or rather, upon landing...
Nice clipping there.Just got back from my LBS. Bought my daughter a 16er for her 4th b-day. Sans training wheels of course. If I brought it home with training wheels I'd be in serious trouble.
I am hoping they'll arrive so I can get them built in time for Monkeyfest, but we'll see. All of the parts will arrive (wheels, forks, drivetrain where applicable, brakes, etc. but I am not sure when the frames will come. We'll see and yes, Sq-Earl really does have the best wife one the planet. For our anniversary I am not only buying him a bike, but building it too!!!
