    Forgot how much fun a DH bike was

    The funny thing is that my buddy that I bought the bike from replaced it with an Enduro. We rode together one of the days this weekend and he was trying to convince me how much more he liked the Enduro over the Demo. I really think he was trying to convince himself, so he wouldn't feel to bad...

    Forgot how much fun a DH bike was

    I bought my first DH bike in 10 years last weekend. Not the latest and greatest, but I bought an almost new 2013 Demo. A buddy of mine had bought it and then got hurt and hadn't been able to ride in a while. He made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Rode 3 days at Snowshoe last weekend and couldn't...

    Anyone worked on the 9Point8 / RF Turbine / Easton Havoc dropper yet?

    I bought my Reverb in late 2011. Since then it has been sent back for warranty 3-4 times. Within 8-10 months of getting it back it starts to develop the same sagging issue. They always replace it with a new post, but I'm just getting tired of going with out a post for 2-3 week at a time. One of...

    Anyone worked on the 9Point8 / RF Turbine / Easton Havoc dropper yet?

    I've read several other RF posts having the air loss and build quality problems. I just got pricing on one last week because I was getting tired of waiting on the Fall Line to come back in stock. Guess I will just keep waiting on the Fall line.

    Brain fart..... cutting new steerer tube

    This is the best way I have found. Gives you some room to adjust the stem up and down also.

    Dessous by Vorsprung Suspension

    Let me know what you think when you try it out on the Stumpy EVO. I was going to get a Monarch soon, but this may be a good alternative.

    New "trail bike" rides for 2015 (No DH bikes allowed!)

    I have been on a 2012 EVO for 3 years, and have really liked it. I was looking hard at a few different things to replace it with, but when I saw that I could get a new carbon frame for less than I paid for the aluminum version I went for it. My only complaint with the bike has been the rear...

    New "trail bike" rides for 2015 (No DH bikes allowed!)

    Specialized was blowing the 26" Stumpjumper EVO Carbon frames out for a great price, couldn't say no. Also picked up a new Pike and hoping to put a Monarch Plus on there soon.

    2014 Nukeproof Pulse

    Chainreation is blowing out their 2014 Pulse DH bikes, got a couple questions. I have to find a new DH bike for my son and these look like they fit the bill price wise. 1- Ive heard good things about them, but never seen one myself. Any opinions good or bad? 2- My son is 14 and almost 6'2"...

    2013 Santa Cruz Nomad carbon frame

    Wow, not much love for the Nomad. Thanks for all of the honest answers. I can and have taken the Evo everywhere. From XC on my home trails to weekends at Snowshoe it has done everything I have asked it to do. I got it 3 years ago and was looking for a change, was hoping the Nomad would fit the...

    2013 Santa Cruz Nomad carbon frame

    Found a brand new 2013 Nomad frame that I am thinking about getting. I know its not the newest and greatest, but the price is to good not to jump on. Anyone have any long term opinions on the frame? Good, bad or ugly any info helps since there is no way to do a test ride. Looking to replace my...

    Bass guitar questions

    Thanks for all of the help and tips. Ended up getting the Squire bass that I linked in my original post and the VOX headphone amp that jimmydean suggested. That will hopefully get him a good start and we can fill in from there.

    Bass guitar questions

    What do you guys think about these instead of the VOX Headphone amp? Basicly the headphones and headphone amp in one. http://www.samash.com/amphones-bass---active-bass-guitar-headphones-vambassxx-p
