Only one way to find out... *loads and cocks M4*

i sure hope it is for the coin it costs.

Maybe the cows have diarrhea?
Sewer out-fall halfpipe?
Mocha latte'?
Be a nice setup riding rock shelf, I find similar tire tread works good on stone.

myself (left) and rageofthedragon after a ride along the river in saskatoon on the weekend..... It was pretty dang muddy that day... Stupid pedals were crap because of the mud..

Here she is. My 2003 Epic Disk with major mods.

What? -dirt\polo shirt? Use it to wipe off the drive.
Geez...my shirt has mud spatters. The fun is OVER!
Nice you had fun.

WTF? ... clarify mon ami.

Since you never did elaborate like I asked whenever you orginally posted this. I will.

He can run spacers on top of his stem with no issue other than a potential added danger to his family jewels. (Although even I think his is rather excessive.) The only time this is ov real concern is when we're dealing with a carbon steerer (which we aren't) In fact I'm presently running a pair of above stem spacers on my new Surly 1x1 fork and if I'm not worried there's no reason he should be

i thought that's what this was...

Not to say there wouldn't be injury if the tube were cut, but a 1.125 x 3" cylinder to the solar plexus, chin, or teeth is in this case an avoidable situation.

Raiyn and rasheed:

Yesterday, I got the steerer of my fork cut 1,2 inches as a precautionary measure to any sort of injury caused by that tube. I was imaging that someday I could hit my mouth, tooth, chin against the tube and it wouldn't be so confortable than facing a smooth ground.

Thanks for your inputs.

I totally missed that. - my bad. Seriously that font hurts

My Haro V2, she ain't much...but it is a start....

Here's mine:

GF Wahoo with these upgrades: Avid Rim Wrangler brake shoes with replacable pads, Panaracer Fire XC tires, Bontrager Select dual density grips, reflective tape for safety, and two bottle cages.

The drivetrain has been upgraded with a LX rear and Deore front, but soon will get a LX front, SRAM 9-speed cassete, SRAM powerlink chain, and hopefully a new crank (LX?).
Anyhow, I really am pleased with the blue/red non-stock look.
Much cooler than I expected.

My Schwinn ive had for a long time. Im looking into upgrading to a Specialized rockhopper Comp for trails and getting me to school in the winter.

here we go...

Personally I'd keep the Schwinn for bumming around on. No sense using your good rig as a school hack

i was thinking about that and the chance that the new one could get stolen, but the frame is just too small for me. i use my dads old road bike for that fall and spring, but i might think about putting some cyclocross tires on it if that would work too in the winter.

Could be worth a shot. Take the ol' roadie down to the shop and see what they can squeeze in there

Update on my bike: New cranks, pedals and a bashring. (Shimano Deoro, OnOff and Race Face, respectively)

I missed everything from the time I wrote it until now...my subscription to this thread only works sporadically at best.

Good looking out Rasheed. I don't care if you change the font to bold for emphasis.

raiyn doesn't like the font i use cause he says it sucks. that's ok though, that's his right. i'm not much of a fan of the blue colour he uses for his posts, but who'm i to complain right? . to each their own... .
