Is that the new cast magnesium pinion casing or the aluminum one?
Looks pretty sweet and your pricing is much better than most. Good job. I am interested in seeing the AM bike all built up.
i know many people who have bought bikes or sold bikes across the border. bring gear with you, tell them you are going to test ride a bike(or shopping), then on the way back say you went for a ride at a nearby trail..
even new bikes have been taken into canada, just with a little mud added. no...
time to sell my car so I can buy one of these! too bad that is the only way I could actually get one right now.
the Ion reminds me of a knolly.
need to extend the chain tension-er bracket so the pulley's are protected by the rear wheel. short chainstays would help too.
both bikes are slack and will handle great but the covert will smooth out the trails a little better. I have covert and enjoy it a lot, sometimes I wish it were lighter, other times stronger(wheels/ tires). bandit would be enough for what I usually do. I also have a big bike.
kinda sounds like...
I would say the specialized, because the seat post angle and the ability to raise and lower the seat.
the Kona's have a very slack seat tube angle, raising the seat would put it really far back so you couldn't reach the handle bars. and you can only move it a couple inches. that being said i am...
I have had both/ still have blindside. they both are good sturdy bikes, i had both at the same time for a while and i would forget which bike I was on, until I hit a rough patch. haha. bottle rocket is better for smoother trails and taller jumps, blindside has more travel and takes the...
the domain forks are fine, they are the same size (share) structure as a lyrick but with steel stanchions. one thing to consider for pedaling up is making sure the seat can move up and down as much as you want. the norco's are good bikes but have interrupted seat tube, others may as well. This...
I had lasik done in about 5yrs ago, and it was one of the best things I have done. I recommend it, if done by a good doc. ask around and see who is good. don't be afraid to pay a bit more for a better doc., you only have 2 eyes.
the first 6-8 weeks after surgery are the most important and...
dave is pretty much right. smaller diameter coils so they can compress closer together, therefore a shorter overall length will still get 2.8in of travel.
i vote local also, unless they don't really do dh. Our local trek dealer is more of a commuter roadie xc and kids bikes.
all 3 of those bikes are sweet, m9 is most adjustable. another thing to consider is what other locals have, they could help you setup the suspension.
sweet pics, thank you. I like the chain tubes also, I have thought of doing that if I were to make a bike, will keep most mud off the chain.
yesterday I threw a nice whip but when I landed the chain got caught and ripped my der off. I did this about 9months ago same jump. aarrrggg. if I had...
