 I'm not a fan really, I took off half just haven't got round to taking these ones off. Hopefully new wheels soon though!

 Deemaxes? Get silver if you can. Would be dope.

 I wish! A friends got a pair which I'd snatch up if he sells them. But ideally E*Thirteen LG1's but more realistically some Hope Pro2 - DT Swiss ex500

 Yeah I've only had to true them once or twice and theres a couple of dings but they're still going strong. They roll at the end of the day...

 Things are good thanks buddy, just been super busy with work etc.... Not got that much riding in recently.... Frown How's about you, how's things going? Do you prefer your Demo to the Transition? What are the better and worse points? Would be interested to know what you think. It looks sick!!! Smile

 Ah glad to hear man, shame about work though! I lost my job at the bike shop near me sadly Frown Yeah all good with me other than that! At the moment I'm loving the demo to bits, only slightly tempted to save for a carbon wilson! But personally I think the demo is better than the 250, it carries speed amazingly through the rough and I love the super low BB height and the short chainstays, it makes it corner like a machine. The 250 is a lot more poppy and flickable but the demo is such a fun bike. I would like to get out on another tr250 though, for old times sake! We should definitely go up to FoD or Swinley soon! Smile

 Interesting feedback on the Demo. Yes the TR250 is so flickable, but I can imagine the Demo is much more of a point and shoot type ride. Looks great mate, glad you like it so much! Sorry to hear about the job... Frown Tough times at the moment, but sure you'll find something even better soon!

 Yeah pretty much all good things, personally I find the bike comes into its own on the rough with the weight over the back of the bike. Something you could relate to is probably the newest ski run, get over the back and just let go of the brakes and it flies! It almost gaps some of the bomb hole/compressions lol Yeah it's a shame but just one of those things eh! Reckon you'll be out sometime soon? I stil need to try out Swinley!
