Interesting forum post on Rimpact about warped tires. YMMV

https://www.mtbr.com/threads/why-am-i-switching-back-to-cushcore-after-running-rimpact.1175539/

Just switched to Cont Trail Kings myself seeing that Maxxis tires are close to $85 a piece right now. 

Had this conversation recently with some of the guys, I said Emma Long if you were to clear the whole thing others mentioned Sky Park drive? Maybe I got the name wrong but real steep real technical....never been but want to go 😄

I'm up here right now ripping it up and its amazing. I swear every time I come here theres dozens of new trails/features. 

Walnut dirt was sticking to my tires when I touched down @ 6pm. Might be trying again tomorrow afternoon but will be soft in some areas for sure.

Just got a set of Vespers on some Nobl TR37's put on my Trek. The engagement is insane and the silence is really cool. 

The demand for bikes goes up so does the theft....my heart sinks every time I hear about one. Get a pic up ....saw a Craigslist deal on a SB150 that looked too good to be true and can't help but think it was stolen.

Someone please answer this: Trek has suspended the sale of their Police bikes. What is MJ's supposed to sell APD per their contract? Is APD just going to buy a bunch of Marlins and slap "police" stickers on them?

The other side of this is that Trek seems to have screwed some bike shops who had contracts with PDs. What's the resolution to that?

Mack you're responding with facts, sources and the ability to put them into logical conclusion....stop it already you're triggering the APD fangirls.

lol I wonder who they will call once one of these tent-castle bums or someone else breaks into their shop and jacks a bunch of bikes. 

 

They would call the APD and they will do their jobs free of personal bias to uphold the law which is what WE pay them to do. 

I would second Craigslist but an XL frame  limits your options. But when you eventually know what you want you can get some steals on there and ride bikes 3 times your budget.

Just how far does this all go? Anyone have a map?

I hated the R's that came with my Trek but my Pivot uses a set of the RSC's and I really love the feel....working on them however still sucks. 

Wow those are some nice bikes to 🙁. Hope they jail the s.o.b.'s. I had a guy come into my store saying his buddy found his bike at a homeless camp downtown and I went outside thinking it was some random huffy but it turned out to be a 2012 stump jumper.

If there's a job to be done I'm sure they don't care about the particulars (unless they suspect it was a stolen bike). What are you considering?

Just got back from riding and Peddlers seemed fine with no caking just softness where the rollers were. First time riding the Suburban Ninja stuff and it was a great way to ride to Brushy definitely doing it more to start off my rides. Be careful lot of people traffic for the holiday festivities. 

Was great to go out and see an event at Brushy, damn some people were hauling out there today! Got a 35:05 time that heat was murdering me.

Damn don't tell me that I just ordered a pair of Freeride Pros....for $150 they better last me at least 3 years.

You guys are saints ❤️

Has anyone noticed their times decreasing following the machine building?

Yeah shaved a little over a minute off my best....currently sitting at 15:24 PR and I'm not even hitting it optimally.

When they are working they are phenomenal, but the minute they don't you start looking for those sweet shims. Guide RSC's and the Codes are some of the best feeling out there imo.

Need to pedal tomorrow, anybody think trail is g2g? If not any other option besides Reville peak ?

Emma Long is in great shape for the most part and they just changed the direction of the trail. I personally really like the new direction.

I really wish I didn't have to work weekends when it come to these Saturday morning help sessions.....how long are you guys going out there for? 

Heck yeah I'm checking it out after reading this post. Whats the fee?

We are not worthy!

My heart sank reading the title alone. Did he have the thru bolt on the One Up or any locks? I'm paranoid now.
