Sorry man...I was playing doctor with homebrewk.

How's your body feeling today? If the weather is good and you're not hurting after today on the DJ, I say go all the way hard.

Scrodzilla 02-23-12 08:17 PM

Oh, and homey - wash your face with a good natural soap that doesn't have a bunch of nonsense in it that makes claims of "moisturizing" and "conditioning". Try Dr. Bronner's peppermint soap.

It comes in a bar too but I like the liquid better.

i have been using that! that's my 'urryday' soap. i only use the scrub when i have blackheads i want to cut-scrub out with abrasives.

Scrodzilla 02-23-12 08:22 PM

I've been using that stuff everyday for years and years. There's a place nearby that sells it in a gallon jug. Washing my dreads with it feels like instant air conditioning for my head.

I want that.

Hey scrod,
What do you think of the fyxation pursuit bullhorns you just got in stock? I know you probably have not ridden with them, but just from a first glance, do they seem nice or not so nice? thanks

Scrodzilla 02-24-12 10:32 AM

I haven't used them but they look and feel a lot nicer than expected.

FTFY.

I am nitpicking, but I just want to point out that not all of those things have to happen. Some combination of that list though, yes. :)

Which is why I used the word almost.

Scrod have you ever seen a tool like the EAI Super Track Tool? It seems pretty cool but this one costs too much ($130).

It is pretty cool - but not entirely necessary, especially at that price. I suppose it's a lot more handy for bringing to the track, as opposed to lugging around four separate tools.

scrod, why do people run their bullhorns at angle "C"? At first I figured they must be sprinting a lot, then I realized bullhorns can't even be used on the track, can they? I dun git et

Dear scrod,

I want a townie setup for my Earl. Are there any black townie bars out there? All I've seen are silver ones. I'm looking promenade style bars.

For the same reason most of those same people aim the nose of their saddle at their headset. Because they're idiots.

When I had my Deda CronoNero Lowriders, I found they had a sweet spot (for me anyway) when they were angled down just slightly, mostly due to the flat shape of the top/elbows being angled backward and putting my wrists in a bad position. There's no real excuse for what you're asking though. Some people are just dumb and will argue how comfortable their bikes are 'til the death.

I would pretty much guarantee that NONE of the wonky looking bikes out there with jacked bar angles ever see a track.
