I'm taking a bud who's pretty new to this DH stuff. Not sure if Stunt would be the best place to pop his cherry...although it would be pretty damn fun to watch.

I'll hit Sully with you.

Lets go up Sully and explore some of the singletrack running down to the valley from dirt Mulholland. Some of them are suppose to be pretty fun.
cool. lemmy find out when all my moving parts of the schedule settle down and we can work out a time.


btw - anyone have an XC-ish length stem i could borrow for a ride or two? i'm working on my hardtail and i wanna make it more pedal-friendly.

What size stem you looking for? I have a 75mm 31.8 clamp you could borrow.

i think i mentioned earlier..
I have a 70mm Thomson, but it's 31.8
I also have a Titec XC stem that is about 110mm i think, that one's 25.4

you can borrow the Thomson and ultimately it's for sale, the XC stem you can have.

as long as it is 1&1/8th, I can go 25.4 or 31.8. a 75mm stem would be good. i'm running 50mm now. i'm thinking of a layback and a longer stem and a tripple chainring setup on my hardtail. thanks nags.

ooh, blender - i'll take the XC stem to compare it to nag's shorter stem (insert joke here). i may buy the thomson off you if i dig the feel of nags 75. or if you are interested, i have a 50mm 25.4 thomson and a 50mm/31.8 deity stem for trade.
