The ones I'm wearing are a cool weather version that doesn't seem to exist on the website. I really like their flannels and pants as well. Cool stuff.

In time grasshoppa.

The 90 day free crash replacement and lifetime 50% crash replacement policies 7Mesh has ease that sting some, as well as Goretex patches that Andrew says work very well. But yes, it's an expensive piece that you'd want to be amortizing over a very long period. I'd want it to last 10 years for that.

I would say that will be an easy one. It stuffs to about the size of a small water bottle quite easily. I stuffed it into a small Dakine took kit case and it goes in without problem, but I don't think it does it justice and it could be compressed much smaller. A chest pocket that doubles as a stuff sac would be a nice addition. 

There was a young lad who sustained a spinal injury on the Shore 15 years ago or so and it was thought that the jaw piece contributed or even caused his injury. This is clearly impossible to prove but enough to give pause.

I love that kind of service!

We definitely didn't get paid to write that, and it was my idea to get Ryan's input because I thought it would add to the article. 

Getting paid sounds nice though...

Haven't heard of Gene Hamilton, but Ryan is certainly a master by any measure.

I'm reading that right now, which is what led me to share this article again (and since it's a holiday here in Canada!). It's an excellent read so far.

The Doc told you that? WTF? Or was he speaking hypothetically?

Fair enough. And if you are already on Eagle your shifting is probably pretty dialled right now. Of course there are others who are already maxing those areas and aren't price sensitive. #dentists

Bumbag FTW!

Perfect use of raw dogged. Although I always wear gloves to put on reluctant rubbers.

I'm going to try the Crankbrothers Highline 170 on my next bike. It's absolutely not cheap but if Andrew likes it I'm intrigued.

I already sold my dh bike but...

This

is everything.

Nice one! I keep having epiphanies as well. I just had a few about flats vs. clipless, including how it affects suspension set up. 

My bar set up philosophy has always been to set the bars so the grip portion is parallel to the ground.  It sounds like you are close to that now.

The biggest difference in the new Yetis (beside the water bottle!) is reach. The new large is 480.2 while the 5.5 was 442. That's huge and very positive. I also appreciate the shorter seat mast. Some are complaining about the squashed head tube but that's not a big issue for me. I already loved the 5.5 despite its foibles so I'm pretty excited about the SB 150. And whatever else might be just around the corner... said the guy who doesn't know anything.

Haha. Not  so much. More oil volume maybe and better cooling but my DPX2 is not a large air volume shock while it's clearly a piggyback.

I'm working on a little something and I'd like some input please.

Here on the Shore we have trails like Severed Dick, Cunt Buster... I can't think of any others right now, but elsewhere things get a little more salacious.

Please give me watcha got! Thanks

Just about to bring Uncle Dave's voice to this shitshow. Did anyone notice how many NRA members gang-banged our Facebook post for our article? Those dudes hunt in packs.

I liked the Range a lot. The only proviso would be that it has a slightly forward axle path (apparently - I was told this and felt evidence of it rather than measured it) which the 650b doesn't have which seemed to make big hits a little harsh. I imagine you could tune that out with a volume spacer reduction to make the end stroke a little less linear.

A very solid performing bike all and all - and with Codes it would be a beast.
