Def adds to the impact, but crazy to think all that dirt made it past customs? Maybe a quick roll in the mud out back of the show?

Thats very true, I don't think they would allow dirt to be transported across borders. No idea what pathogens/organisms are in it.

"some aspect of the display, showing off some world cup dirt, or was the mech just too busy chasing booth girls to be bothered with it?"BBLB

Seriously...chasing girls...at Interbike? Since Philly Inter has always been nothing more than a pool cue collection, but maybe things changed this year

The angle of that seat.. Is too DAMN high!

badbadleroybrown (Sep 22, 2012 at 23:29)

Wrong... that bike belongs to Aaron Gwin, therefore the seat height and angle are Pro and perfectly acceptable.

The real question though... why did no one bother to wash Minaar's bike? Was that some aspect of the display, showing off some world cup dirt, or was the mech just too busy chasing booth girls to be bothered with it?

It seems to be common place to leave the World Champ winning bikes as are post race - last year the XC champs bikes was like this and Scott had Kabush's bike all dirty from the last race too.

Ah, didn't even think about that... It's a notch above even World Cup dirt, it's championship winning World Cup dirt lol!

Imagine what happens to that seat angle when the shock is compressed

look at how long the stanchions are on Gwins 40!
longer travel?

Mcgeezy (Sep 27, 2012 at 13:47)

10 inches is what I heard

voltagejosh (Sep 27, 2012 at 13:51)

Where have you heard this?

antony134 (Sep 27, 2012 at 14:35)

and he used only 20% of it! because he run his fork realy stiff.

AlexRob (Sep 27, 2012 at 16:37)

If you look at the stanchions there is a black mark on the front of each which look like markings for how low you can safely put the lower crown. Measuring from them looks to be about 8 inches still, he's just running his crown super high lol Razz
