Today I switched from x7 shifter to x9 shifter(with my old x9 rear d) w/ a lightweight and shorter cable/housing and went from heavy zip ties to lightweight zip ties in a vain attempt to save weight on a 50+lb Banshee. MLIA.Facepalm

I even went so far as to put heavier zipties on the very front and light ones on the back so it counterbalances me mag30.lol


See, this is what happens when you're injured and can't ride for an entire season.Madder

this isnt a "how much does your bike weigh" thread...

Yeah, its a general chit chat thread of random topics from people around the area.
