If you guys replace your disc brake pads, do you replace them both at once? I hate my Hopes, looking at selling them and actually downgrading....but one end needs new pads. Both at once?

I'm trying to learn how to bunnyhop to get over certain obstacles in a park close to where I live. I ride with my saddle high up so either leg is fully extended on down stroke to prevent knee injury as I've been told but the bunnyhop tutorial video I've seen tells to keep the saddle low. Can I get away with keeping it up without crushed balls upon landing or do I stop a few feet from the log to lower the saddle?

I'm going to be doing a lot of riding this summer, I quit my job and am going out on my own business wise, but am going to take a few months off to ride and relax.

Hmm, Hopes are up for sale, looking to go back to Avid, or maybe Hayes. Something i know my way around, that's easy to get parts for here in Australia and is more reliable than my suckah's.

N2bikeN is down for a week. We took a break from the bikes and hit the water this evening. He did well for his first time with a flyrod.

As a culmination of the last 24 hours and events until such a thread, it involves Ebay, theft and going to the Police Station before school wearing makeup.

Any news on that lift assisted park you were previously jibbing about 66?
