Our sponsorship/event guy did the full ride last Fall with a friend for a video project. I believe they originally set out with a crazy sub-30hr goal. Harder than they had planned for sure but they had some sag support and switched between cross bikes and road bikes with 25c tubeless setups...
I had several living under my shed (12x24') with a poured concrete floor. I borrowed a live trap and caught them one by one. I then upgraded them from a 1 acre yard with just grass and a dog chasing them constantly to some riverfront property near the town boat launch that was surrounded by...
I'm not sold on carbon yet. Locally our trails are very, very rocky and the riding is primarily xc to light all mountain type of stuff and within a relatively small riding community there have been at least 6 broken carbon frames and 1 aluminum frame in the last year. One of those carbon...
I think Niner has their hardtail geometry really dialed in. The new Air 9 or even the lesser priced EMD build up very nicely. I had the carbon Air 9 last year and when I ordered a custom Ti frame this year, I only made a few small adjustments to the geometry.
The Air 9 you linked to is last...
SC does make an aluminum Highball now but the Flash is a really nice frame. Next year's Lefty has a lot of improvements which are worth thinking about. More importantly though, the size difference you referenced between the Specialized and C'dale are really quite large so I'd double check the...
I like the Dumonde Tech products http://www.dumondetech.com/dumonde/products/bicycle-2/
Usually use the Lite on the road, original for the mountain bikes and the freehub oil on standard spring & pawl type freehubs.
Check http://www.bikeflights.com/bicycle_shipping.aspx they list several known box dimensions including re-used cardboard boxes. I'm selling a frame right now and the box for that alone measures 42x22x8.
You should be able to check the actuations with eoscount.com if you're so inclined.
Good luck with the sale. You've produced some great stuff with that one.
Definitely don't rent their modem at $7/month or whatever it's up to. Monitor your data usage online for a while to see what you're using in a month. We did the Hulu/Netflix thing for a while but were regularly exceeding the 250gb/month soft cap that Comcast has in place. They do at least...
Rockstacker and Jackson. To get there climb up Amasa Back and follow the signs. Go check out Pothole Arch while you're up top. Your buddy that doesn't dig exposure will probably hate Jackson but you can send him back down the way you came up which is still a fun run back to the car with lots...
Yes, it's easy to find your way. Moab in general has greatly improved the trail marking since I first started going.
If the link works, here's my gps track http://connect.garmin.com/activity/117145212
You can save yourself some time riding the road back to town if you can leave a vehicle at...
I've ridden it three times, most recently this past September.
Trip 1 - 7ish years ago, Titus Loco Moto (4.5") with our old Olympic XC wheels and the prototype Crow tires for testing. It was mid-April and we got dropped at the top of UPS, couldn't go any higher due to the snow. We were the...
Give Brendan and Mary at The Hub in Idyllwild a call. They're bikepacker types (she did Tour Divide) and carry lots of the necessary gear at the shop. I'm sure they'll have some good advice for you.
How about Mitt and his buddies paying lobbyists millions upon millions to craft the laws allowing them to pay such low tax rates, particularly on capital gains? Poor people have crappy lobbyists.
