TEAMROBOT Added a reply to Looking at new brakes... Suggestions?

3/4/2010 10:13pm
Just remember Alex, Patrick's best season ever was on an old blown out set of Hayes nines, so sometimes being able to slow down isn't the best way to go fast. On the other hand, that is the worst advice ever. Better advice would be to suggest that no brake is easier to bleed than shimano, and they are really...

15 qr must die. Maxle light weighs 19 grams more than 15qr. It was a stupid idea in the first place. Another standard was not necessary. 29ers are fine, I guess, if that's what you want. What sucks about 29ers is the same thing that sucks about Apple computers: it's not the product, it's the people. When you build a...

It's a joke. I'll explain: In America, we have disliked the French so much at times that we even renamed French fries "Freedom" fries. Animosity towards the French has been an ongoing theme in American pop culture for much of the 20th century, and especially in this last decade. While French-Canadians are not actually French, they share a common language and identity. By commenting on his language in such an extreme manner, I was using sarcasm to fulfill a dual purpose. I was both light-heartedly making fun of his French-Canadian language, and by using poor grammar and language also caricaturizing...

Yeah, and it felt like my ears were burning the whole time while I was watching it. What was that poison coming out of his mouth hole? It certainly didn't sound like freedom or liberty.

This is stupid. If you think professional downhill racing isn't about: "training, calories, heart-rate, vo2, rest, taper, train, train, train" and all that other "necessary horseshit" than you have been living under a rock. Sure, bike skills are a way bigger factor in downhilling, so DH isn't as singlemindedly focused on conditioning. But what the hell do you call developing...

The correct answer is neither. In the debate of style vs. tech tricks, the real winner will always be going bigger than the other guy. Watch Sean Burns in Dead Bang. Case in point.

I guessthe riding was alright, but those T-shirts were amazing. But seriously, Schusler annihilated some of those corners.

Word up on points. Points should be assigned to all Pro riders, or at least top 50. I showed up to three rounds, got top twenty, and had like 5 points. Keene wins one and had 75. Bummer. Keene rode his ass off, yeah, but WidenJ5 is right on. Also, any UCI inscription possible is awesome. If I want to...
