Bikes: Pacific hardtail (frame only right now); Weyless SP (frame/fork right now); Jamis Dakar XLT 1.0 custom build-up (fully functional)

Been rolling my XLT for a year and a half now, and just because...well, just because, I want to change forks. Got a Nixon, want an AM 2. Just yesterday, had to swap out the RF X-type crank for an ISIS I got for another bike that now won't get built (other issues). X- BB took a gravelly dump on me. Think I'll prob'ly wear out the ISIS....

I love the XLT, don't get me wrong; but I'm just feeling that urge to 'simplify'; I'm thinking a good HT w/ suss post (bad back), 100-120mm fork, urban tires, and the Avid/RaceFace/X.9 I currently run. But there are so few pickings in the HT arena that are: a.)my size, and b.)affordable!

Maybe come tax time '09....
