My favorite thing about these Denali threads:

They all turn into a showcase of how many parts can be replaced with good parts. I just don't understand it. By the time these things are merely months in, owners are bragging about changing the cranks, shifter, rear mech, even hubs and wheels.

And then the owners talk about what a great bike the Denali is.

I can hang any part I want on any piece of poo frame too. And it would have been cheaper and less time consuming to buy a bike with those parts, on a frame that wasn't such a piece of poo. For the love...just shop BD.

I just don't get these. "My bike is so terrific after I've swapped out every moving part on it! You should get one too!"
