Titus Racer X (2004) all decals removed. I really love this bike. Much lighter than my previous Rocky Mountain Element (2000). Handles really well.

RIP fisher fat possum xo.

xcracer13 05-21-08 04:33 PM

Hmm? What did you do to break the fat possum?

Cyclist30907654 05-21-08 04:42 PM

WHOA. What happened?

Dannihilator 05-21-08 04:47 PM

Swing arm is cracked.

xcracer13 05-21-08 05:32 PM

Shouldn't that be under warranty?

Dannihilator 05-21-08 05:37 PM

It is, but I'm afraid I'll end up with a worthless HiFi, so I'm not going to bother, build the dmr up with the parts from the fisher and I'm going to just get a complete bike come fall, so I'll have two bikes.

xcracer13 05-21-08 07:09 PM

I mean couldn't you just send the swing arm by its self back? I'm riding with Fisher himself next sunday. I could ask him =]

Dannihilator 05-21-08 07:13 PM

Still not going to, I actually like how the dmr is set up now.

M_S 05-21-08 07:38 PM

Why don't you send it back and sell the Hifi?

Dannihilator 05-21-08 07:54 PM

I'm just not, and I have a feeling, the warranty wouldn't get honored.

New bike. I had originally posted here a while ago looking for advice on AM bikes, though it was more for a plush ride than for actually needing all that travel. After trying out some bikes, I realized that I was too short to have any real standover on any AM bikes, and while, yes, I know standover is somewhat overrated, I still like to be able to stand over the bike without sitting on the top tube. I looked at some 4-5 inch travel bikes, and absolutely fell in love with the AS-R. (Note: Never demo a bike that's more than you originally planned to pay. You'll find the extra money and eat cheap for a couple weeks.) I also realized the reason I thought I needed all that travel was because my hardtail's fork 1) is a fairly low quality fork, 2) has springs that are way too heavy for me, and 3) needs a rebuild. Yeti had a few leftover 2007 frames that they were discounting, but the rest of the kit is all 2008 (other than an X.0 shifter and X.9 RD).

C Law 05-22-08 08:39 AM

you're so mysterious smashy. why won't the warranty get honored? you weren't JRA

Dannihilator 05-22-08 10:43 AM

Was talked into warrantying it, so we'll find out what I get, if it's another possum, I'll build it up, if it's a HiFi, I'm selling it.

They still have Possum frames for sale.

Dannihilator 05-22-08 07:12 PM

Well, good news is that they are sending me a new swingarm and that the dent is in a non stress bearing location. Will just have to use the hardtail for a couple of weeks.
