    Foes 2:1 Mono . . . not for the faint of heart.

    You may want to try reading the 12 pages of information and questions about the bike preceding your inquiry.

    Does anybody have an Idea what the Norba National Series looks like for 2006 ?

    Also, we should probably be more specific here. The only thing NORBA is really doing to bug most people is raise the cost of an annual license, oh and I guess not paying out DH or 4X racers for two years until Fox bailed them out this year. The Big Bear guys should be the ones who are getting...

    Who finds most small DH bikes to big?

    Troy Lee Designs is going to have some women's specific gear for next year, but I think they're only doing MX pants. You could probably get them tailored into shorts if you wanted to. I think Fox and Thor might do some women's gear as well. As for armor . . . not sure what to suggest there.

    Foes 2:1 Mono . . . not for the faint of heart.

    I think it has an 83mm BB but I'm not positive.

    Chain guide for a 2 front ring set up?

    The MRP and Blackspire guides are much better now than the first incarnations were a few years ago (mostly since they now have stepped rollers that actually prevent your chain from dropping), but the E-13 is still the best two-ring system out there.

    Does anybody have an Idea what the Norba National Series looks like for 2006 ?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but if NORBA is trying to kill DH racing, won't boycotting the national series be the nail in the coffin? I know it's expensive to go to races, but it's a lot of fun. Look at it like you're going to a SX race in another state and you're going to be there for the...

    DH Bikes stink (pics inside)

    Sometimes I wish I wasn't representing a company and therefore can't say what I want to. Wik: zero stars for hating on other cyclists instead of the Sierra Club.

    Fox DH40 Stem/Crown

    Yeah, Von was only working a half-day today and had his mind wrapped up on Old Mill's 7th hole, I think. :D

    Fox DH40 Stem/Crown

    They are supposed to get here today. Pricing should be really close to the 888 Switch.

    32mm marzocchi seals???

    That's a pretty broad, and incorrect, statement. :D

    MX Des Nations

    Then Mike shoudl get Tony under control. Bubba and RC both had win at all costs mentallity, but I don't recall Ricky standing on Jeremy's bike in any motos. :cool:

    MX Des Nations

    Haha yeah, you've got a couple of valid points there.

    Turner goes non-horst...

    That's not really the point, now they can raise the price of the bike $14 or drop it $14 or do whatever they want and don't have to write a check to another bike company. I'm not saying I have some sort of inside knowledge as to what exactly happened, but if I owned a boutique frame company, I...

    32mm marzocchi seals???

    I would probably buy Marzocchi brand seals from a Marzocchi dealer. There is no real standard for seals (oil or dust), so it's best to go with OEM product.

    Turner goes non-horst...

    Let's say Turner sells 1,200 frames per year excluding the DHR, that's almsot $17,000 in royalties that go off to the big ugly S. That's half of somebody's salary. $14 per frame doesn't sound like that much until you start adding it up.

    Turner goes non-horst...

    I'm excited to hear what Scott and Kris say when they get back from IB. For those saying things like "now they're up against Trek in the market place!" . . . remember how they were licensing from Specialized last week? The market is always full of bigger fish. Unless you're Giant.

    MX Des Nations

    RC has been running that extra visor thing at various races for a long time, Bubba does too. The visors that come on the Fox helmets are not as long as the riders would like I guess so they add that little extra bit to deflect roost (they only wear them on looser or rocky tracks). I think they...

    MX Des Nations

    Alessi = Rhyno part II, perhaps: super fast with a wicked temper and questionable ethics on the track when things get hot. Fitting and ironic that mister "Believe the Hype" should pull that stunt at Hughes' last race.

    I thought we had an agreement about non-disclosure.
