Sorry, no model that's compatible with training wheels.

Wait. A fkn moped race got fined? Brahahahahahaha!

@dick-pound: We get it. Rocky are idiots and you're the expert on sizing. Maybe take a break from pounding d*** and go for a ride?

Dick comment, Mr. Pound.

Hmm... looks like they got rid of the option to choose standard or quiet pawls. I liked the quiet ones.

Look at it this way, now you have an excuse for being so slow. "Sorry everyone, it's those damn 2 extra pawls that are slowing me down today." I tore down my old P321 hub to replace pawls a couple times and the action is super light with the magnetic pawl system vs traditional springs. That's why they run on freehub oil only vs grease.

Yeah I'd be curious to see how many riders who had a contract last year are privateers this year.

@dchill: Good feedback. Yeah my past specialized alu frames have been good. Tilt and Lithium but I’m headed back to Ibis as I’m becoming a princess and like those light and snappy dw-link frames. Canfields pedal well are weight competitive against their alu peers.

@dchill: They can all be compared to Raaw because they're all boutique(ish) brands selling performance aluminum frames near the same pricepoint. And prices listed include a rear shock. Agree 157 spacing adds cost to a Knolly frame swap. Banshees look fully modern to me. Frames are beautiful, geo modern and with some modularity built in, and a nice dual link design. Privateers are... not quite there yet in the looks department. I think these are just the usual suspects that buyers seeking a less mainstream alloy frame are likely to consider. Yeah you could add Kona, Transition, and Santa Cruz alu frames to the "mainstream" list. When I choose alu I like a smaller brand (have owned 2 Canfields) and most of them look better in person than the mainstream stuff. My ripmoAF was hideous compared to a Canfield, Knolly, Banshee, or Raaw. Not sure what my point is. The Raaw costs more but that doesn't mean it's a bad value if the performance and design is above their direct peers, which I don't know. Maybe they're the Yeti of alu frames except the frames don't snap? How cool would a small brand alu bike shootout be?
