So when are you getting the new 2010 Glory DH frame and the 2010 Boxxer? That would be an awesome combo!!!

how many tearoffs per hour were you going?

Pitcrew (Aug 31, 2008 at 20:38)

The rotors are probably the cleanest thing on that. Was it like 3ft of mud by any chance?

i bet that inner-tube fender did a whole lot...hah

mitcht (Sep 1, 2008 at 19:12)

Yea it actually kept alot of mud off of my goggles... That's kind of the point. hah

stinkyrider17 (Oct 1, 2008 at 21:39)

probably built up so much mud that the tube was acting as a brake!!!

onone26 (Oct 3, 2008 at 15:17)

i know they work. i know what they're designed to do. i just figured in THAT MUCH MUD, it wouldn't have been able to perform up to its designed duty. looks like a....uh... fun ride? id like to see how dirty you were though!
