Evil Jewelry
Gave the FXR its first real upgrade since I bought it 2 season ago a couple weeks ago, stoked about this thing! My stupid chain has fallen off to the inside so many times that it's completely chewed up the BB shell on the frame...should cure that problem! Less concerned about aesthetics than I am about constantly dropping chains in rocky places like Moab...no mas

Good purchase. Now, ditch the 32 and put a 38 on there. That, or enjoy sucking on my dust for 10 miles down Porcupine.

Lot of people seem to like those, let us know how it works. I was thinking about slapping one of those on, since I never use my big gear anyway and I am now using washers in place of it to get the necessary thickness so I can tighten the chainring bolts.

Rotate it clockwise some more to try and get the bottom rollers as close to the chain stays as possible. Nice ride.
Harvest the ride.

CS, I think I'm gonna go with a 24/36 setup. I suck your dust anyway so not too concerned
L8--Thanks, I'll check it out...Go-Ride set it up for me so I haven't monkeyed with it at all yet.
I'll let yall know how it performs over the long run...I'm definitely missing those higher gears right now though with only a 32 on there.

Well I already lost my roller on the guide...the bolt wasn't tightened and it fell right off the other day. Go-Ride has fortunately agreed to order a new one for me and replace it since they installed it. Quality shop!

I have one of those on my Balfa. It took some fiddling to install, but it works great. Once installed properly, you will find great bash protection, smooth as silk shifting, and no chain suck.

Precisely what I was thinking. That's just no good, especially after the past few days. Originally Posted by powderwhore

come on you guys, spats are among the thinnest skis in his quiver.

the real answer: b/c I am too lazy and scared for my fingers to take apart my P18's to bend the brakes out. Originally Posted by boobookitty

Ooh, snap. P18s=Danger. My thumbnail never did fall off, though.
