Guys,
I have been riding mostly DH the last 5-7 years and my trail bike is an 08 Giant Reign X. My girlfriend and her dad are crazy good athletes and amazing climbers and I need something light, preferably in the 25-27lb range in order to keep up with them on the local mellow trails here in...
I need to replace the rear Hayes Mag caliper. I am going to buy a set used with 160mm rotors but I am running a 203mm rotor in the back right now. Are these calipers universal for all rotor sizes or did they make different sized calipers to go with the larger rotors? Thanks for the help.:D
Sam,
Go to Danscomp.com and check out all the completes they have on there. Get anything from Fit, FBM, Subrosa, Stolen, Kink, DK etc. that has a 21"TT and is full chromo. You don't want any high tensile steel parts at your size. I am 5'10" and 175lbs and ride a Stolen Heist (20.75" TT)...
Sounds like I should at least check out a BMX rig. What should I spend for a complete and what are some suggestions for good 20"s? I am about 5'10" and weigh 175lbs. Might ride some street with it, will not be dirt jumping it and will doing mostly park.
Guys,
I live near Santa Monica and have started riding the Cove skate park and I also found another good park down in Fullerton. I am new to park and am riding an '08 Eastern Night Train.
After 3 trips to the park, I am getting jealous of all the kids on 20 inchers and how easily they can...
Guys,
I have been ripping a Bottlerocket for everything from trail rides to annual trips to Whistler for the past two years. I have finally decided that I want to make a change because I just have never gotten used to climbing the 38lb beast.
I am thinking that I could pick up a Reign...
Guys,
I am taking a look at the 2008 Demo 7 II, which is the high end build and comes out to 40lbs on the shop scale. I know this is not a trail bike but I trail ride with my Bottlerocket every week and it is sitting at 38lbs. Is this bike going to feel much worse for trailriding than the...
Guys,
I am looking at a 2008 Kona Stinky Deluxe. I am about 5'10" and am thinking about the large (16"). The Kona website lists it as having almost exactly the same top tube length as my med Bottlerocket's effective top tube (23"). The actual top tube of the BR is (22.4"). Is it more...
Does anyone on here have the Sunday Elite that comes speced with the Totem? How do you like the setup for freeriding/shuttling/bike parks as compared to full DH racing? Is the HA steeper than the stock 8" DC setups and if so, would that make it bearable for any shorter trail rides with some...
EC,
I have a strong finance background and would be happy to help with any data gathering or financial modeling/presentations that will allow the owner to get more comfortable with the income prospects of the park. I sent you a PM.

Definitely a great ride today boys!! Did I miss anything exciting on the last run? Did you guys try the big gapper at the bottom of the park again?
"i'm a quadrilateral". Nice post Adam. Did you hit Sully today?
Guys,
Is there a specific order that I am supposed to follow when inflating the different air chambers in this fork? I also have the Roco TST R rear air shock on my bike and you are supposed to fill the reservoir air chamber before you fill the main air spring. Thanks for the help.:D
Nice work Adam. Now you are going to kick my ass even faster than usual.:) I owe you a phone call to get the details. Did you ride it with Jay this weekend?
Is anyone running a Roco TST Air on a their Bottlerocket or any other FR/DH frame? I am about 190lbs with gear. I will be using it mostly as a trail bike with some shuttle runs. I probably won't hit anything over 7 feet and will be making resort trips about 2-3 times a year including Whistler...
