Altamont Capital Buys Fox Head - Pete Fox Rejoins the Firm

My Fox bombers were starting to rip at the seams after 2 rides! Without grandma patching them up they would have been gone at least 3 times now. 50€ worth of glowes. Same with the jersy. The cheap chinese Thor jersy has held up 3 years and still going, while all my fancy fox gear is totaled after one year.

And I am. Just saying that I used to buy from them, but don't any more, because they are lying about RRP. And it's a shame, because even if they do have something discounted that would draw the customers/me, I just can't trust them. Bought my ZEEs two weeks ago from bike-discount.de. . That is also when I noticed the weird pricing on CRC (where I was going to buy them first), because I was comparing. You have been warned.

But they do. A lot! http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/si/en/poc-cortex-flow-helmet/rp-prod93560 -> 310€ http://www.pocsports.com/en/product/1220/cortex-flow RRP 230€ My lbs: http://www.koloset.si/index.php?menu=ZA%C5%A0%C4%8CITNA%20OPREMA&podmenu=%C4%8Celade&id=248 207€ So my 20m^2 LBS is capable of giving higer legitimate discounts than a global dealer orderng truckloads of components? A joke. Another LBS was selling it discounted for 130€.

Sorry to bash the sponsors, but the Chain Reaction became a bit of a joke. I used to buy things there, but nowadays all their "discounts" are in fact not discounted. The standard price for saint brakes is around 153-160€ most of the shops I checked. Only ChainReaction is marking that as a super 30% discount. Same with POC helmets, tyres, etc. I don't mind the price, but saying the original price of TLD a helmet is 600€ and you discounted it to 300€ is a joke. That means I can't trust your discount's/prices. Even if something is legitimately discounted, I won't buy it, because when filling the basket to the free shipping limit I have to recheck for every item over the web if it's reasonably priced or not.

If you listen carefully, you can actually hear the salt munching on the bike components.

You can show skin only if you are making a statement. You can't just show them. You have to say, that the fact of your right ball being lower than the left one is... ...symbolizing the left sided government parties repressing the right winged ones who are supporting MTB. And that is not OK, because we want more people in MTB. The message doesn't have to be good or anything, but you have to have it. Else people are gona say you are just showing balls on PB.

In Slovenia every super model rides DH. It's mandatory.
