I get all my questions answered no problem, same with almost everybody else. I tried to help you, but Hoffmans site doesnt say.


I hope sombody stabs you in the stomache.

Coming from the guy who finds humor in calling California calipornia. Guess what, I type well enough that everybody on here can read it and not struggle, thats good enough for me and the rest of the forum.

And how is it our fault if we dont know the answer to your question? Like I said, I tried checking the hoffman site but didnt come up with anything.

Get Cancer.

thats pretty cheeky, but ive already had it, hopefully it wont come back, but im sure if it does its not because you were wishing it on me.. and at least you spelled it correctly.. thats an improvement.. what else you got? get hit by a car? hope your mom is murdered? i have one for you.. get some anger management.. its just the internet, who cares what i say about your forum? Im just a dude who claims to be from calipornia.. another idiot.. let it go

if you guys are having a big enough debate on this, then maybe go to a bike shop that has one and find out for yourselves?
