hi all since you are discussing avid juicy hydraulics, i was wondering if anyone experienced what i have on my new mtn bike, intense spider, it came with juicy...
Hah, I have put a cross type bike together so gonna come out a play. Open B's it is, bring on the mud!!! Matt ... I offended with the Keith speak... :) ... ...
Well the weather leading up to the race was quite nasty to say the least. Lots of rain the two days before the big race. I packed tons of clothing, two...
Results are posted: http://www.pilarcitos.com/results/CrossResults/2008/Candlestick08.html Check out Kirt Fitzpatrick lapping the entire SS category!!! ...
So not to take away from Kirt's amazing win, but he didn't lap the entire field. He was the only person to stay on the lead lap with the A men. Still, he...
I went on a road ride to Livermore yesterday, and rode through Roberson Park where the Livermore CX series is run. They had a course set up entirely within...
Actually, that is the course Bob Lofland and I raced on a couple of weeks ago. Fun stuff. I think their next race is scheduled for this Saturday (11/8). If...
Give me a break, cancel a cross race because of mud. Whatever you are smoking you better stop because your sense of reality is clearly out of wack! jeff ... ...
Darn, take it easy. There's mud and then there's clay. If it's in clay (like my neighborhood trail, the front and rear tire will seize up within minutes and...
Yes, TWW will be there for sure - we're working out some logistics now, but will let you know if we need bodies - we will know by the end of the day...
I see Jeff is still a bit angry over his humiliating finish at the Pilarcitos race. Who on TWW didn't beat him at that race? Must have been too little mud on...
OK, Mr. roadbikereview-kit-wearing-cross-racer, let me explain. The whole origin of cross was off-season, mix surface racing in bad weather, so why would a...
... Pilarcitos race. Who on TWW didn't beat him at that race? Must have been too little mud on the course to suit him. Nice hearing from you, Jeff. ... On...
Humiliated when racing what I love the most, hardly. Dropping out after 30 minutes in my first race I didn't have high expectations for the second race. OK, I...
Well, I suppose if I had an off-the-rack Taiwanese bike I wouldn't care much about it either. I was looking for one just like yours to race so I could simply...
okay, okay, okay. Yes CX was started for some offseason training when the roads became too dangerous to ride/race because of snow/ice. Clay - ST after serious...
It's like buying an H1, one of the most capable off-road vehicles you can buy right off the showroom floor, using it for occasional trips to Tahoe where you...
I will beat Hane next year - this is my first season of cross and I really haven't ridden much this year. He is a grizzled veteran of the scene - but will be...
Seriously Seery? So you are bashing like 75% of weekend warriors out at the cross races, because they don't ride super fancy cross bikes? And I would put...
Yeah I was hoping for some super sloppy conditions -Â I figured that was the only way I could stay on the lead lap - if the conditions were so ugly the pace...
Hmmmm.... Somebody is feeling a bit defensive, eh? I have a custom Mikkelsen steel CX bike, and I love it. I hope to be riding this bike in 20 years (if I...
I got to say that i had a great time on Sunday. I was my first cross event in about 12 years. I had my fingers crossed for heavy rain and mud, proper cross...
I dropped my S-works epic frame on Sunday and it appears that i have buggered it. So anybody got any idea about removing a rather large dent on the top lip of...
I've had Specialized replace 2 cracked frames for me; they are really good about that kind of stuff. Although your problem was crash related, I would...
Unless it's interfering somehow with the operation of the bike, or if you can't install a headset because the dent causes the HT opening to be out of round, I...
the main question is how much of the true inside diameter is buggered? You may be able to ream it to size again if not too out of round. but my guess is you...
The dent is such that i cant get the headset in. Perhaps Specialized might be able to help.................. Other than that would anyone one to buy a large...
