@makerstelemark Good question. There is a lot we can't tell to try ad compare the manufacturing/fabrics. There are others out there that make mesh bags for sure! Some of them are even pretty good!...

@ichibaneye You must be fun at parties.

I'm not familiar with Lenomesh, but if you were to dissect it, the material is made from strong nylon thread, which is "dipped" in a sort of plastic then woven together. The closest material most...

Hey folks!
Long time caller, then long time troll, now long time lurker here with my new Kickstarter project.

You see, its just a simple duffel bag that is made really, really well. Thats it. A...

Sorry for the upside-down images. There are better/ right-side-up ones on the PB posting!

@homemadesalsa Thanks!

Accepting various states of condition! Need for a trail bike, but I'd be happy with someone's kicked-the-shit-out-of DH wheel.

Who's holding?

Ask Emily, Shes got a 106mm headset.

I'm interested in those suckas.

To say some of the comments in this thread are disappointing would be an understatement. Knowing that a bunch of you are parents, and generally-speaking adults, makes it that much worst.

Even on...

If reading posts on TGR is not any indication to you, 1/5 people are totally f'in nuts and somehow blend in. Damien Sanders, for example. This sounds like just another kook. Just be glad he isn't...

Or move to Issaquah/ Fall City/ Preston/ Snoqualmie/ North Bend. Make sure you are working out there too.

I live in Seattle and am moving to Bellingham because driving in traffic for an hour to ride bikes is a buzzkill. That said, there are jobs here, just don't plan on buying a house unless you got a...

Bushwacker, Don't start making sense now! We're actually all only interested in what the pokey old folks think about the new bike trends.

The Rainbow Rim trail on the north Rim of Grand Canyon.

That place has been burned forever into my memory.

Agreed with rludes025. Short stem and a lonnnnnnng jacket.

Mini TR update: Were in Powell River for the night- Then on to Cumberland for a couple of days tomorrow.

We rode Coast Gravity Park today- it was glorious and fast as hell. I recommend everyone...

Down in 'Merica- we think little of a 5 hour drive, and I regularly drive 10 to see family. This certainly isn't the case with the Canadians I've met. The loop we are planning is tiny! 3 hours from...

I am 6'2" and I'm rocking 170mm RF Next cranks. Love them. Not sure if I'd do 165 'cept for DH maybe, but who really knows? Maybe they'd be awesome? I was tempted to get the SixC ones, as they come...

@leelau Thanks for all the info. We're looking at skipping the Chilcotins this trip so we can double back and spend more time there in the fall with friends. I doubt I'm overestimating my climbing...

You mean "Somewhere Over There" In Squamish? Great idea!

So LeeLau, we settled on doing the:

Vancouver Island ie Sooke Cowichan Valley Nanaimo Qualicum Cumberland Campbell River

Plus Sea...

We're looking at this monster of a bike ride:

This is awesome. I know its not much time, but I'm moving to Bellingham this summer, so I'll be an hour from the shore, less than 2 to Squamish. Woop!

I'll definitely look at keeping it further...

My lady and I are heading to Canada in a few weeks to get married in Squamish, BC. We'll be immediately leaving from there to tour the Province and have been storming ideas and places to go.

Sold (for asking).

Thanks!

The AMg- it can take a 32-38.

I'm running a 32, if that is what you are asking.

And it all ends in a *kiss* of homophobia.


--Draw Curtains--

Mine is standard ISCG!

I need ISCG 05 for a press fit bottom bracket.

I'd be interested in ISCG 05 chain guides, or sweet 27.5 tires!

Good price! Below cost, people! Jump on it!

I'll take it too if he bails!

No. You are trying to be a jerk. Or you are a jerk, and don't think you are. Not sure which is worse.

No one needs to be "educated" by you and the Google searching you've been doing because you...

Damien, its yours for $150. There will be a packing fee and shipping fee of $300 though. But I'll pick up the paypal fees, mate.

You'll see a lot of shorter steer tubes on new bikes these days...

Thanks for the bump!

And don't worry about Damien Sanders, Smmokan. He is apparently pretty sore about getting trolled by me in his "grumblings of an old man" 3d printing post.

Not a chance. Of either thing. I'm stayin'.

So... You're not just trolling? You sure are all frothed up buddy.

Side note- Its awesome when people write with alternating ALL CAPS- because EMPHASIS/ANGER! Then to add underline to the ALL...

I've got a used 2.35 DHF 3C Exo, but do you really want a used tire?

I'm not sure I understand your trolling technique.

But I am sure you don't understand the "why" of 3d printing.

But there we have the paradox of the internet troll. Are you spouting off...

Bump!

I've ridden the Zesty and Spicy aluminum. They were both 35lbs.

Buy the carbon one.

These are what will be cool next year-

That G3 might be the ticket for Canada, but he TRs for Washington... Gah! Why can I never decide on things?

How much you folks hoping for?

For my 2015 Process.

A bashguard would be rad, so something like an AMG would be the move-

Who's holding?

^^ That is awesome.

Looks like they cut weight from the crankset. My X1 cranks were 850 grams. They felt like machined steel. The GX ones are advertised at 650, which isn't that bad all things considered.

All things...

I've spent some time on these two bags- links to my reviews:

After riding on Seymour (Neds, etc. ) I would definitely go 160. That mountain has a lot of rock on it, even compared to Fromme! Most importantly, pick a bike that fits you well!

I think what is going on is that roadies are discovering that the only *real* way to have fun on a bicycle is to use a mountain bike. They resist this temptation, however- and only move incrementally...

The bike market is great for used right now. It seems like all the deals people were getting on 26" rigs has somehow extended to everything else, for the most part. Use Pink Bike's buy/sell-...
