Sweet looking ride Mr. Smashy. What is with the silver wall on the rear tire? I can see that they are Kenda's but cannot tell which model.

I think it's one of those little sidewall protection thingers.

Then it broke and I had to get a new frame and it turned into this:

Then that frame cracked and Giant would not replace the frame. So I took all the parts I could and moved it over to this:

I'm sure they'll appreciate your insightful commentary, bikerdfresh, regardless of the fact that those posts are about a year and a half old.

Is it possible that SIDwc-Fork is not able to use full 80mm travel?

I just used the SID owners manual from SRAM's service site.
It essentially suggests using half your body weight as a starting pooint for positive pressure, and about 10-20% less for negative pressure, if I recall, and tweaking it from there to your personal preference. Rebound is set using the curb test (one bounce rolling off a normal street curb) and always fill positive chamber before negative. I found flipping the boike upside down to fill or adjust the negative chamber on an SID greatly reduces the oil spraying out of the shock when you check it with a shock pump. otherwise, you get oil everywhere.

THANK YOU-:thumb: I could need some informations about: MOTION CONTROL, and FLOODGATE setup.
Iīm about to cut steerer tube. How do I get "STARNUT" in place? Needs to go about half inch more inside.
It is a special STARNUT for CARBON-tube.
I know approximately how to setup positive and negative air.(got SID from 2003 since 3years)-THAN X-
{by the way: I speak German,Serbian,Croatian fluently. I am learning Spanish and Italian since 3years}
So SORRY for confusion!!:cry:

Oh, that's the dual-rear-disc brake version didn't you know? ;)

wethepeople 05-29-08 04:13 PM

Yeah, it's a dork disc. It'll come off sometime soon.
