That's in my backyard 66...when are you coming out here?!?!

I tried to get you to stay!

This could have been you, but nooooooooooo...............

And that's even closer than Lake Louise.

Soon, I hope. You still have that room for me?

You know it!

I strongly suggest getting there via E. Washington . . . .

Hey, If I get some J5s (the 07s from cambria) do they come with the brake fluid? I know I need to bleed them, but I dont know if they include the fluid. THanks

j5s haha! elixir is the only way; that is, for us good people.

^^^^^^^^
I thought you were still rolling around on the same POS shimano Mechs. Its only a matter of time until you have a cable falure (like me) and run into a bunch of trees and yell words that scare fishermen.

ha! i rememeber that! i still dont know how you didnt fall off and die.

Oh, so you guys know each other. Interesting...

yeah that would explain my sig

Fall off of what?

your bike dumdum!:D

What? To g-mail to debate.

Quick, possibly silly question..

Would it be fine to use brake cleaner, i.e. the one for cars which comes in aerosol cans, for my brake discs?

yes

Thanks.

Just making sure there wouldn't be anything bad to come of it :)

I've been kicking the idea around of parting out the Bullit and building up a 5" trail bike out of the parts. I have girlscouts enduro frame hanging around and I could build a nice trailbike out of it. I really don't need a 7" bike and I've been spending more time on my HT than anything else. I would really like a 3 or 4 inch bike that would take a beating and take a longish fork but the Enduro is a lot cheaper option.

That's why I am building the XTS Moto for a trailbike: had son's frame collecting dust. Free/cheap is always a good reason :).

BTW, build is nearly done. Will post photos early next week when it I pick it up from the shop (new cable housing and other little picky odds-n-ends). Not going to be light though - - scale said 40#. Dang.

I hear you about the short travel bike with slack angles...I'm loving the 4x...it can do anything. Wind the Pike down and it's great for XC...it climbs better than the Coiler did. I used it for a couple of XC races this year and took third in one of them.

Lock out the shock and the fork and it's great for urban or at the BMX track.

I've got a short stem and wide bar on it now and I've been using it for shuttling. I can keep up with the guys on the big bikes no problem.

And with the low BB, it loves corners!

Yeah, yeah!! I was daydreaming about a Rampant with a PIKE or a 4xWC. Killa fun, man!

I know that some places you need a lot of travel but not really around here. I ride different now than I did a few years ago I just don't have the urge to push my limits like I did......must be the old age kickin' in. I think I'm going start building that Enduro soon.

I hear ya...there are a couple of the local shuttle trails where it's damned sketchy trying to keep up with the big bikes on the 4x. Or there are a few resorts I'd be fine riding the 4x at but wouldn't even consider it for places like Kickinghorse.

Yes it's true, 66 doesn't jump any more. Perhaps the time is right for a Rascal.

^^^^
Last time we drove past the local battery store, two of the workers there were riding around on those with one wheel in the air. Just felt like sharing.

Well Merryweather,I have gotten some of my jumping skills(as little as they are) back. I might consider a Rascal when I pick up my new Jitterbug.

People over 65 qualify for Medicaid and from what I gathered from the commercials you can write off part of the Rascal using Medicaid benefits. I thought you should know.

It's really nice to have you young'ns looking out fer old '66.
