    thanks
    Do you still have the revolution 150 mm wheel set? I would like to buy them. My name is George 626- 483-3696 let me know. Thanks.
    Hi there,

    i'm sorry to bother you like this, but i saw your 2008 Remedy coil conversion and wanted to know if it was still a decent climber after the conversion. I have a Remedy 2010 myself and i'm not impressed with the drcv shock on it or the fork for that matter. I like my bike a little more drop and jump capable. It still has to be able to climb well though as i don't have a lot of lift accessed areas nearby.
    Can you give any advice as to what i could put on there (front and back)?
    Price isn't really an issue but the cheaper it is, the faster i'm able to replace the parts.

    Thanks.
    Nice pictures. I really think you should switch to Shimano pedals. All us cool people are riding them. tbone ;)
    Don't really know just yet. I am thinking Sunday looks better. I will have to ask the Bose what day she is going to let me ride.
    Hey man. How's it looking for Sunday? I work an 8hr tomorrow, sat, rather than a 12 hr. Catch you later. Tim
    Hey man. What kind of schedule do you work off of? I am a nurse at GHS so I have days off during the week and end up by myself at Paris or driving to Asheville to ride with my old buddies. Not that that is a bad thing. I would like to do a few group rides at Paris or just to pair up. More fun I find. Later. Tim 828-301-7700
    Hey Cecil. I am a local guy here in Greenville. I Raced at Paris. You did a great job with that whole deal. My wife and son and I have been here 2 years now and I am excited that there is a MTB event right in the backyard. Thanks man. tim
    Hey Cecil, I'm interested in your wheelset. On the Giant website it states that the rotors are 7 and 8 inch, what size are yours? I have an 06' Giant and am looking for a spare wheelstet to throw on there but I dont want to have to make any modifications to mount them up. I run Hayes HFX 9s if that helps too, let me know if you have any info if there are any other issues on brake alignment.

    Thanks, Chris.

    One other bike that has been suggested to me is the Intense Tracer VP.

    Looks interesting, with the 5.5 and 6 inch travel settings. Looks quite comparable to the Remedy, weights being pretty similar as well. Only problem is it might be more difficult to find one in my price range. ~4k.
    Remedy for sure over the other two. It was a great bike. I have a Trance X now for a Trail/DJ/DS/4X bike. Its only 5" f and R. The thing I liked about the Remedy was it was 6" Fand R but climbed really well.

    Good luck.

    Just wondering if you might answer a question for me.

    I ride a BMC trailfox right now and like it for just about everything.

    However, I'd like a bike where I can be a tad bit more aggressive with without adding a ton of weight.

    So far I've been looking at the Banshee Rune, GT Sanction, and especially Trek Remedy.

    So far the Remedy has been the one thats really caught my eye. Most of my riding consists of riding XC... But I do enjoy riding uphill and then bombing DH. Sounds like the Remedy would be perfect for that.

    Any advice/opinions?
    hello FCL,
    would you mind share your opinion about rs vivid 5.1 shock?
    i'd like to upgrade dhx5.0 on my 08 turner dhr and i'm leaning towards either ccdb or vivid.
    if you could say briefly your data like weight, bike, spring rate, ti or steel and so on, and mainly the damping, riding quality, pros and cons and adjustability i really apreciate
    thanks
