#valleysuckridetheshore  Check out KK today. My buddy has been giving it love for years. A secondary exit and some new features.

Now onto shorts. Been there done that. I pay more for a quality fitting saddle. Shorts for me are DryWear from Mark,s . They did do a bike short. It,s a longer leg as well . Adds some leg warmth for those in shorts all year.

As for the shaving incident LOL . If you road in the early 90,s pretty sure most had that happen LOL. Trimming and grooming works better IMO. Traps some moisture to keep the junk cooler.

Yup huge fan of the longer short. Especially for year round riding. Have the current RF pants. Didn't like them at 1st. Struggled thru, and adapted. They are nice after rain rides. In the rain they get soaked but keep the mud off the legs.

The pad fit designs are limited today. Urge is a brand that uses it as well. They just dropped a new design. Sad part is they don,t ship to North America. Not sure when this started as I have own one of their helmets. MEC used to carry them.

I think this is the 1st Mips design. I would try, no dials or adjusting bands. Slip fit pads that are sizable . Might have to check one out.

This just went to the top of my list. Long time user of this brand

Cool will have to check one out. Relocating in a month or two. So looks like it will be out of Loops for a dealer. Hope they have stock. If not I can order direct thru URGE .

So no Mips or similar?? If so I gotta try one on . I don,t like the retention designs as of late. One of the reasons I still use my URGE. It,s a slip fit design and is very comfy.

Really curious of the age group. That are feeling the affects of these now offensive names. What rock did they just crawl out of that enlightened them?

Those out pruning and raking. Safe true builders tons of time!!! Check out C.U.N.T. at Bear most Tuesdays.

BC has a new guy looking over stuff. They are taking longer and are stricter than they where in the past. There are 2 hills in the valley that have been waiting for Section 56. Projects require sketches and drawings of structures and better descriptions than before. In some ways it,s overkill and someways it,s the right thing to do. I hope to get a few more sessions in with the crew. I,m relocating this fall so time for a new spot and building buddies.

My wife's Samsung converts the language during text messages. I have sent her many a message and it switches to Chinese partway thru the message. Frustrating as hell.

Oh hell ya. Nice looking Titan.

I have forgotten to turn the clutch lever ON .Lots of times never dropped a chain either. OneUp oval , OneUp guide, XT rear derailleur , XT chain

So one of these puppies apparently 

Can't wait till I see these show up. Then we will have a full shit show on our local trails. Has a crankset, see these guys pedal it at all? Nope

Ya they didn't pedal once. Guess those have a throttle as well LOL. #throttlegrip

Is there a 170mm 44mm 29er Helm? 

I’m thinking of taking a stab at the EXT ERA or the silver crown Formula Selva when it’s released. But the Helm could be a 3rd option. I actually considered it but a 44mm offset wasn’t available at the time of purchase.

Looks like 130/160mm range for the Helm 29er

Riding Spank 395s , 2X lace , 32 hole 29ers. I,m 190+lbs , can,t say I have ever noticed wheel flex.

Trials bike also don,t see the lean angles. That dirt bike and MTB,s see on the trail.

Going back to the inserts. These have peaked me the most. See how more like them as they get out there.

I only just realised that they are doing tubeless systems now. They only did the versions with tubes last time I looked. Half the price of Cush Core. Interesting to see the reviews. Has anyone seen any?

$90 for the pair . They are sold out.

"Claudio fell in love with that bike because it allows him to climb any hill at ridiculous speeds while giving him the feeling of being on a downhill bike on the way back down".
