About Me
Snickers, pizza, Friday night chicken specials, all that stuff is pretty high on my list of delicacies that I could go for right about now. Other than being a garbage disposal, I don't have many redeeming qualities. Future life goals? I want to keep going to at least one new country every year and get 360's dialed. That's about it for me.

Good point and we are going after that market as well. We just felt that we should do the press release into the market that we are already in to let people know that it is available and keep them informed. One of the drivers in us releasing the suspension lift kit came from people asking us about our Transit at cycling events.

Thank christ they changed that bike. Didn't seem like it did much good for anyone. Joining GT factory team might just be the worst thing one can do for their career. Gee Atherton: On GT in 2012, finished top 5 in world cup overall, then started sliding back every year starting in 2014 Dan Atherton: On GT in 2012, worst...

It is a good thing that Graves isn't worried about creaky cranks, with the amount of power he puts out I imagine every crank/bb he has creaks. At least he's on press fit now, that never creaks.... hahaha

Graves seems like the epitome of a good person. In addition, he’s got a great attitude, one of the most versatile riders of all time, and always open to sharing tips/bike setups with the public. It would be awesome to have some beers with him and Keene and talk about riding. Speaking of, @sspomer when’s the podcast with Graves? Hoping for a 2-3 hour podcast.

TRex Added a reply to Sag and Negative Travel - Discuss

2/1/2018 8:19am
I think more negative travel would be good, except for the fact that in cycling, rider inputs are paramount. If I driver in the desert could 'pump' or absorb anything with their bodies, I think the negative travel would decrease, as they could get away with slightly less travel, and in turn have more stable cornering (lack of body roll)...

Good review from a rider who had a previous generation. I'm only concerned about Turman's influence on the turnbars though. As you scroll down the review they become ever more noticeable... first a straight air, then a lean bike, then it gets close to the famous front end up turnbar we are so used to in Vital reviews.

It would have been easy to jump on the band wagon and just add 25mm to their reach figures and call it a day - it would have sold because all the sheeple think the longer the bike the better it’ll make them ride. Transition chose to stick to their guns which were already very strong and do something that not many brands were doing because they believe it makes a better bike. Safe option = keep same frame +25mm (yawn). Balls option = enhance the entire package by means not currently in use by any other mainstream brand in...

My first race against Sam Hill was in Austria in 2002, and I can't really say I was racing him. I thought I would race him, upon arrival. In practice, I was stopped in one corner and looked at some ruts and thought about how to negotiate it. Sam rode through the section, talking to his buddy, and rode out...

I second that. But hey, I drink plenty of alcohol and I know that isn't good for me. I just miss the second part about incredible riding.

If only it added sealant at the same time. You could truly milkit. I would be curious to see how well this worked on a setup that doesn't have the tire already seated.
