It's hard to get any of their stuff here. I do know the new rep in Vancouver is going to change that.

Maybe just put pegs on it and get it over with?

The new bell super air R large will probably fit u. I have a big head and went with the medium. Remember you can adjust the size inside the helmet.

Like this leatt just didn't fit me properly.

L A M E.

Iove the "don't have time, I get more laps argument." ....How selfish have we become? MTB lost its soul a long time ago.

Nice! My traildog is too old to ride with me now. He is a coonhound lab cross. Got him at a shelter in the states.... please people reconsider buying a purebred dog..

There are so many great dogs looking for a home.

When you hear first hand from an ex employee at head office how badly MEC was run. Those in the know knew this was coming for a few years. Major mismanagement of funds.

What I wear under my shorts is my business. I find this thread offensive and now will be hiding in my safe place.

Funny just installed this dropper yesterday. Easy to install, works great. Like the 10- 30mm adjustment

The thing I find offensive is the pricetag on the new yeti special edition hard tail..... Now that's offensive.

Btw I'm still gunna say Squampton so there!

The circus continues....

This is exactly my point. If I go out for a 2 hour ride and cover "x" amount of distance. Who gives a toss that you can get more laps/ distance in on a motorized bike in that two hours? Like that's not good enough?  Just enjoy the moment, enjoy the ride.

Who gives a toss? Maybe the person getting the extra lap in? It's a bit strange that you feel you can decide how other people can choose what's good enough or how to enjoy themselves. Would you raise the same concerns over someone who did a shuttle run? Have you ever ridden Cypress? Did you pedal up or shuttle?

I'm not the decider, its just an opinion. What this thread is all about. 

For the record pedaled up Cypress from home last time. Have shuttled it time to time. Don't have an issue with shuttling although I feel throwing this into the conversation is pointless.

"I don't have enough time" is a weak argument to justify anything. We all have exactly 24 hours in a day. People choose how they want to use/prioritize that time. I don't hate motorized bikers, but that argument is pretty hard to respect.

Should call them Me bikes.

I don't have time to ride as much as I want so when I ride now I can cover more ground and get more laps in.

All about me.

You could say the same thing about any activity that anyone does.

It's not like I go riding for someone else. I don't play video games for someone else. I don't lay on the couch for someone else. I don't go for walks for someone else.

I don't see what you're trying to say, elaborate?

Ok .. ask yourself this. Why get one if you don't have a medical / physical reason? Your answer will be the answer.

For the record I don't hate the emtbs. I just don't get it.... besides just wanting to do way more distance for the fraction of effort seems selfish to me.

Dogecoin is next.

What sort of tech is behind it? Its still a low intro price but that doesn't always matter.

Thether (and ergo theta i think) have Samsungs support as well as one or two others.

There isn't , the whole Dogecoin is a joke really. Reddit is talking about a mass buy to push the price up. It's only 5/6 cents. So buying a bunch isnt really a gamble. If it goes up to a dollar or something could be a good payout.

I've used hitch racks for 15yrs that obscure the vehicles plates and never had a cop ever hassle me. That's driving all over Canada/USA and into Mexico a bunch.

Needless to say when bikes are on the back of the car the plates aren't really visible with any rack. I have never been pulled over either but know a couple people who have.

Depends on the vehicle obviously.

My plates on both cars are completely visible, that's why I bought the 1 up. NS racks obscure pretty much every cars plate. Only has to be partially covered to be an infraction.

Thanks for the input.  Last question: how badly did you get hosed by customs, having this shipped from the USA?

It's actually built in the USA so you shouldn't have to pay duty... But you have to organize that before it's shipped apparently. I picked mine up in the states, stuck it on the car and drove back after being there for a few days so the customs guy just sent me on my way after I declared it.
