@GreenMachine not sure if you have an interest in titanium. Turner is running a special on the Nitrous frame with a Fox Factory fit 4 130 34 fork for $2,100. That’s like getting a Titanium frame for approximately $1,100! Price is for small and XL only. Medium and large is $2,800. Normal price is $3,250.

Is this like... height discrimination?

Nice frame!

BTW... what your long term review on the TRP mechanical disc brakes?

I figure you look at 2XL when possible but as you can see this runs big. People sometimes mistake my large for an XL. I think the head angle is measured based on a 120 fork and this current option comes with a 130 so should be slightly slacker. Great to have options…

Yep xxl eliminates me from a lot of bikes - 500 reach tho is usually great .
The negative of an xxl is it can feel like riding a limousine is tight tech - even if the fit is great.

Most importantly, where is everyone riding this weekend?

Stephens?

 

[BPaze]

Stephens?

I have ridden there the past few rides and it is absolutely a blast!!!

Personally not sure prob not riding Saturday, need to see how bad the rainfall is, it may be a high mountain or wildcat day depending on how much rain.

 

[mtbiker87]

Amount of rain will determine if Stevens is a good idea. Anyone willing to brave Wayway? HM or Wildcat would work as well. Sunday of course for me.

I forgot about rain... supposed to rain all day Saturday
I think its MSB day on Sunday

Haven't been to Ringwood in a while

 

[mtbiker87]

PJ pumptrack is doable after a rain as well usually

 

[mtbiker87]

I'd do Ringwood ...but probably not on my MSB....at least not in the wet. But I'd bringthe Gnarzan, maybe the fatty even.

Ah, it always works! BTW it's RSP...

Also, I think I'm open on Sunday as I work on Saturday. And as you know, while I do not claim to doing so fast, but I do ride RSP on my full rigid SS with old geometry.

Happy with the TRP mechanical brakes. Not as strong as hydraulic but I expected that. Try it out on Sunday at Ringwood

Dude, how many bikes do you have😂? I have an extra flat mount TRP I was going to return but may sell it cheap instead as I’m too lazy to go through the process of retuning something. New thread idea, 1001 things I’d rather do than return an online ordered item…
