seriously, that's pretty cool.

I'm not even sure exactly what he's talking about, but I'm famous, so it doesn't matter.

p.s. Uhh, yeah, what is he talking about?

I think it should be renamed the "Danger Stem."

Then call those the karstens krank, cause I'm gonna pick some up next month.

That's funny. No B.S... Danger is my middle name. I changed my last name 4 months ago (changed it to my real father's last name). I decided to change my middle name too, and the best thing I could come up with was Danger. So my real name is Torrin Danger Arnold. (if I had a scanner, I'd scan my license). Danger stem is far more appropriate, and it's catchy too.

WK, those are sexy. Wow...

Danger is my middle name.

Saw that on your LifeCycle website and thought "how cool." You can actually say, "Danger is my middle name..."

Hey WK, aren't the Sugino Impels the lower end of Sugino's MTB cranks? I think the cool part is the Chainring. Who makes that?

I have no clue. The chain ring is what got my eye too. They look like time trial stuff. (Per 163.2:32:25's words)

I swapped out my Sugino Impels for Shimano 600 crankset. I didn't really like the Impels, they scrathed easily and were very beat up from normal use. Light, though...and the chainring looked nowhere near that...must be a custom made one.

whoa! that is extremely cool. I don't have a real middle name so maybe I should get one. Now I just need a good idea. jeff

I wonder if you can easily get new chainrings for that Bolt Circle Diameter.

Also, I think I found where you too can get a Danger stem!

That's it!!! Where'd ya find it?

I was at REI the other day and saw it in the display. I figure it had to be on their website too and, lo, there it was, the Danger stem. Too dangerous for me though. :eek:

I don't like my middle name, but if I did, I wouldn't be William ***** K the second. So I'll stick with it. Sucks to be me.
