I'm not even sure exactly what he's talking about, but I'm famous, so it doesn't matter.
p.s. Uhh, yeah, what is he talking about?

Hey WK, aren't the Sugino Impels the lower end of Sugino's MTB cranks? I think the cool part is the Chainring. Who makes that?

I swapped out my Sugino Impels for Shimano 600 crankset. I didn't really like the Impels, they scrathed easily and were very beat up from normal use. Light, though...and the chainring looked nowhere near that...must be a custom made one.

I was at REI the other day and saw it in the display. I figure it had to be on their website too and, lo, there it was, the Danger stem. Too dangerous for me though.
