and narrower rims if most of your flats are from sidewall cuts

You could also go much narrower rims and use a Pepi's Rokline and still be lighter than your current rims without a liner

Pepi's would give you back the sidewall support you lost for going to a narrower rim

needs a Trust linkage fork

only helmet I have wrecked (needed to replace because of a crash) was cracked at the forehead.

the other crashes I've had, have not cracked/dented/visually impacted my helmet (my nose on the other hand...;-)  )

since the vast majority of impacts are to the front rim of the helmet, why not use more foam/plastic to extend the body of the helmet visor-like above the forehead?  I've only seen this done on one type of kids helmet. 

When I buy a helmet, I always choose the one with the most foam in front of my forehead

how much chain do you need to wrap?  should  not be more than 2 links

how about an old Huret Jubilee or Campy Record using just one pulley?

as in 3x3=9 or

Tringle 3+3=3?

for straight chainline

Shimano's front pull side swing front derailleur also shifts instantly and is pretty bomb proof

when I now look at my sarcasm meter, it's like someone slipped acid into my coffee

thanks

I will try them out

Who has Dynaplug refills in North Van or Van?

12 people climbing it at one time just shows we need more non-secret black diamond climbing trails

The dozen riders climbing up Corkscrew last Sunday around 11:00 am, please stop.  It's not a climbing trail and you can't get off the trail fast enough...  assholes.

it's 99% climbable (100% for Chris Akrigg)

Why was it built like that in the first place?  Was it even approved by the Land Manager?  Did the NSMBA build it without permission?

I've always liked taking the road up... less effort and way faster than the climbing trail.

it was that way in the first place because it was using existing trails (Peugeot Skid Road Network which were the original green routes for downhill direction in the 1980s)

but please don't decommission all the original A lines for climbing, many of us still get most of our thrills from Uphill Freeriding (ala Chris Akrigg), such as many of you wouldn't like it much if more of the heritage downhill technical features on Ladies are removed
