I'll try this afternoon on my commute. I thought it was the seat or shock, but I took both out, and put my thomson post in, and was able to make the frame creak, and confirmed it with a buddy that it wasn't in my head.
Yeah buddy!! Though my rig isn't as capable as yours, I still like it! definitely jealous of your v10c. I think I'd do it just like you did... Perfect setup.
Thanks man, It's pretty good. I'm happy with it, I'm stoked on the new frame coming(cracked this one, waiting for warranty to show up). I plan to beef it up a little here and there. But try to keep it basically the same functionality. How is your rig doing? liking the new 180?
Tom will be my first ride. Just pedaled around the apartment complex. HA feels the same really, feels similar. I had a 28mm stem with the Boxxer before, and now I have the 35mm for the sc fork, both Straitlines Also wanna say how awesome the 2012 XT brakes are. Theyre powerful man, Im really surprised. I used all Avids before. Im liking the new short levers. Got to use then at Northstar and zero fade, all day.
It's a black e.13 34t guide ring to replace my worn out 32t red ring. It's a part of the fade to black I'm trying to do(working on some of the Hive rims too). Except that the new frame has a shitload of red... I wish I could just get a stealth s-works enduro frame instead of a gratuitously bedazzled red...
Hahahaha, rim has crack in rim bed, will take photo when I lace up new rim. I still has it, and is holdion up mildly well, so still riding. The frame cracks are hard to see, but they are at junction of ST. You both evil.
Cracked at ST/TT junction. They are pretty minute cracks, mainly only see them in day light. The frame creaks though... But I'll try and grap a pic today, I don't know that my cell will be able to pick up the cracks...
