Dirtyslim69 Added a comment about video How Wide Should Your Mountain Bike Handlebars Be?

I feel 740-750 is good for me. I have tried 780 and just seem too wide. I'm 5"10.

I got this after jumping on the bandwagon and I can say it was worth it. Went from the 2x 10 with a chain guide to a 1x10 with an extended 42 tooth cog on the back. I have only drop the chain once and I think its because I accidentally back pedaled while going over a huge log. I have had 75% less fuss with my new set up and love this chainring.

Dirtyslim69 Added a comment about video What Is The Most Efficient Pedalling Style? Testing Flat Vs. Clipless Pedals

Just as a regular ole jo. I have been back and forth between both for years. I have never found a differences as far as efficiency with the right combination of pedals and shoes. I use clipless now and the only benefit I found is like you said Mike.. high explosive acceleration. Also, I can pedal through rocky and rooty terrain without having to worry about slipping off. With even 510s and nice flat pedals I would find myself coasting a lot more in sections. I have broken strava records with clipless probably for that reason alone, being able to...

Love slick honey, I don't use it on just my bike either. I have used it on other projects, car parts, whatever. I swear its multiuse!

Good review.. I had this helmet for a while but I had to get rid of it for the reason it only comes in 2 sizes. I wear a small helmet. Yes, the pads made it a great fit but because you had all that extra padding in there, my sunglasses never fit right and always got caught in the cracks of the extra padding. Also, my goggles never touched my face due to the helmet being made for a person of a medium size head to wear. This became quit annoying as I wear goggles every time I ride...

NoahColorado Liked a product review Tested: Urge Veggie Archi-Enduro Helmet
12/3/2013 2:11pm
by Noah Sears The Urge Archi-Enduro bridges the gap between traditional full-face DH helmets and all-mountain half-lids, call it the "tweener" helmet if you like. As the name implies, it's designed for Enduro racing where full face helmets are often compulsory. The granola-friendly Veggie model reviewed here features a 100% natural linen fiber in place of the fiber glass more commonly used in this and other helmets. On my scale, the size small weighs in at 820g. The Veggie model tested here will set you back $224.95, a $35 premium over the standard (fiberglass) model.

Dirtyslim69 Added a reply to NEW Troy Lee Designs / Shock Doctor 5205 Wrist Support
4/19/2012 12:37pm I ended up buying this cuz of this review.. Sadly I just lost it but I now have enough flexibility back in my wrist that I don't really need it. I can say that it is well supported, fits great over your gloves and is comfy (for the most part). The thumb loop got irritating after a hard downhill run...

3/24/2011 12:13pm Very nice! I got one from sixsixone after my injury and this one looks a heck of a lot better. I have a problem with mine coming unstrapped and there goes my wrist flopping again. I am going to have to consider getting this New Troy Lee Design wrist brace.
