Seths Pool Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited)  So I sold my aluminum GG smash frame, and my V1 megatrail frame is at GG HQ getting the pivot bearing holes remachined so no Guerrilla bikes for a little while. My revved smash is about 7 weeks out. this XL trek remedy 9.9 27.5 turned out nice! Maiden voyage at Cat Mtn today 🙂 Sorry not sorry. Supposed to rain Saturday!   Edited April 10, 2019 by Seths Pool 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockshins Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Nice looking rig! My new bike came with those Michelin Wild Enduros, I am liking them quite a bit. Did that front hook up well at Cat MTN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinerider Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 You seem to buy a new bike every 6 months. Do you need somebody to spend money on? I have at least one suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My new bike came with those Michelin Wild Enduros, I am liking them quite a bit. Did that front hook up well at Cat MTN? so the wheel set came from a buddy with the Michelin wild enduro front tire. today will be my maiden voyage on this build so I'll post about the grip and ride of this tire tomorrow. the tread pattern looks good, but the rubber feels pretty hard so we will see! I'll ultimately end up with a magic Mary up front but am happy to give this Michelin a whirl  26 minutes ago, Shinerider said: You seem to buy a new bike every 6 months. Do you need somebody to spend money on? I have at least one suggestion. always wheelin' and dealin' man, or replacing broken stuff. I bought this trek frame from a buddy for super cheap. so much so that i couldnt pass up the deal and just put it in a box not knowing what I was gonna do with it. fast forward 5 months later or so and my stable is completely changing so I decided to build it up. it feels extremely plush I think its gonna ride great maybe one day I will rearrange my priorities. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBaron Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Please post up you ride-thoughts after you've had a chance to pedal it around a good bit. Â In the future, I'll be looking for a big travel bike and the Remedy & Slash have been on my list (because they've been around long enough to find cheap used ones) Thanks, Â -CJB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is a 2018, which has the thru-shaft shock but still uses the full-floater mount. They dropped the full-floater design with the 2019s. Edited April 12, 2019 by throet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
