How's the recovery Mike?
-
Changing plugs in an LQ is no big deal
-
Short stem if you have a longish top tube. Rock Shox Pike. Nuff said Schwalbe Knobby Nic. Good all around off road tire
-
I can't upload pics from my iPhone all the last week. Why?
-
And then there's Joes STi..
-
Yeah it's a cut down Thompson.. All the way in.

No, It wasn't easy to get an FS bike under 25# back then. The S-Works m4 FSR in 2000 was about as reliably light as they got for the era.. Ellsworth was the only other one that got that close. The S-Works has a carbon/magnesium Mars fork, carbon cranks etc.. With the flat pedals and RaceFace bars that are on it now it's probably 25 his old bike was a 24" wheel specialized with an SR fork.. Weighed 36# or so
-
Yes it is! 100% original, XTR and carbon cranks.. Also has a Chris King Headset and a Thomson post.. I paid $400 shipped ($325 and $76 shipping).. Weighs 24#. he loves it. We rode again today.
-
Set it up and he rode it today. 8 miles on trail.. Loved every second and couldn't believe how much better it was than his old bike

Picked this up for my son, cheap:
-
Riding on 25s is "new" thats a good one
-
Guy bought the back seats but only wanted me to ship the stripes. I was very happy to do that
-
Manuals are what I have. I paid $300 mint for them. I've seen them for $350 a few times and $400 all day for a pair sold my shredded garbage vaders for $600 and the stripes off the old rear seats for $150.
-
Why? They're silly looking, uncomfortable, and good ones are over a grand.. Buy E46 M3 seats for $350 a pair in mint condition. Way more comfortable and better bolstering.
-
Nah. POS. Just sell it to another hipster for too much money.
-
Good thing he was in a Volvo. otherwise he'd be dead.
-
Yeah, he will have mounted it backwards so it'll be a whole weekend of Mikes face while he rides a roadbike
-
I dunno mike, all your pics look like a bunch of people standing around with bicycles nearby..
-
You have to give speedplays a chance. They're going to feel like riding on ice cubes at first. Give them a few rides

Kevin when Bernie didn't get the nomination:
-
Buy a fast car but drive it like a pussy.
-
Vanos of any era can be rebuilt. But I still wouldn't touch one of those.
-
They score better than trump.

Grandfather clause. Same issue with the racetrack

Giant makes bikes for most major brands.. Half the bikes in shops are "Giants"
