Just saying that sometimes even us non-engineers types like me and Nance are interested in what the 'geeks' are discussing as you may end up with a coloniscopic injection of some sort without warning ........

Sorry' date=' me English not so hot with all these chemicals. How often does a component such as a Thomson seatpost fail? Are a handful of failures reason enough to increase the engineering requirements of these components? Sure, if you are the guy who sees his ass you have a problem but is it that big?

Why do MTB'rs insist on riding with pimping white shoes?

For LittleBen the weight weenie ............

Anyone just happen to have an XTR front caliper by any chance .........

But but but Onetime is that an XTR caliper intended for 140mm? The one I have is for a 160mm .......

Konaman - yip I understand that but wanted to do it without having to buy another 'front' caliper for the rear ..... Onetime - Please sir, I would appreciate that!

Is it possible to use a 140mm rotor at the rear with a standard XTR caliper or is a special caliper needed? Maybe a different mounting bracket?

On SPD's it has an arrow indicating tighten just make you sure you loosen in the opposite direction. Don't know the 'CB' stuff yet, LittleBen just fitted some yesterday ......

Nice pics! I see quite a few spectators were hurt with that motorcycle incident along the way ...........

Cool, thanks!

Oi danlate I can't see 'em pics ......

As far as I know danlate is correct that on X0 you can use any but on X9 RD's it needs that fancy SRAM specific one at the top! I have heard that some people file that guide on the upper one on X9's down and fit a standard one. Haven't tried it myself.

Saw at least 2 riders having trouble with those deep section carbon tubby MTB wheels ...........

Best atmosphere I have ever experienced at an MTB race!

Thats all folks ......
