  12. Well I used to have the Scott OEM "progressive" seat, and it was a different style to all the other seats ive seen, it had a thinner back end so that you could move forward and backwards without hurting your legs and other nessesary manly objects, maybe that was more of a BMX seat? what are the differences between the MTB and BMX seats?

  16. cool no problem anyway i gotta go, ill see all you okes in two weeks time! im off to the cedarberg tomorrow at 5....Happy riding!
  17. hahaha I barrely send my bike in ever, I do pretty much everything my self....although i cant rebuild a wheel yet so when i get my hub that will have to go in.....BTW, will i have to send my entire bike it to get the thru-axcel hub fitted? or just the front wheel? i just thought maybe they gotta get everything spaced out or somthing?
  18. .......Murray how? turning rebound and preload and compression knobs?
  19. Ya I think thats it, casue I turn my little rebound nob to the " - " sign to make the shock phsically rebound faster..... which decreases the rebound dampening. Ya Cap thats probably the reason your fronts washing out, your head tube angle changes waay to much when the fork and shock compress and it could be the preload, or the rebound, Ill only be able to tell if i rode the bike. but what i do is i turn both rebounds onto the slowest mode (phsically) then change the rear to what i like, then adjust the front accordingly, therefor you can have your preload at any setting, unless you got your preload on waaaay to soft. but check it out, it cant hurt to fiddle around a little right? Also might be a good idea to plot all your adjustments on paper so you can always revert back.
  20. You bet!
  21. Anyone got a 20mm thru axcel for sale....
  22. Awesome! I really wanna try SH one day, whats it like? and What do you mean the front washes out from under you? mmmmmm im still not sure when I wanna ride tomorrow
