SRAM Announces GX DH Drivetrain
@Pichy: Yeah well just wait until next season. Before you know it they'll be accepting food stamps for lift tickets.
True story: I occasionally ride with a kid who's bike cost him less than the derailleur in this group... And he's generally faster than me. True, the bike was used, he's 10 years younger and 60 pounds lighter, but sometimes when I look down at the full sprung trail rig between my legs I feel like a sucker.

SRAM Announces GX DH Drivetrain
@therealtylerdurden: I actually ran into someone a couple weeks ago who way having the same issue. He'd tried loctite and several other similar fixes with no luck. It's apparently a known issue that hasn't been addressed. I could have sworn he said it was a Giant issue and not SRAM one, though.

@airmiller44: how could you have ever predicted that a cheaper version of something would be released if you'd waited?!?!? The only time that's ever happened is every other thing, ever! Damn you SRAM - DAMN YOUUUU!!!!!

OneUp Shark 50T Sprocket Kit - Review
I agree. Companies should not release products you specifically do not need, or are too physically tough to use. Personally, I think anyone who uses anything but a rigid fixie with no brakes and a seat carved from solid granite is a pussy.

OneUp Shark 50T Sprocket Kit - Review
They're definitely the holy grail, but since all current gearboxes are constant mesh they create a feeling of drag and friction. Every time I've ridden one I've felt like I was peddling through sand.

I'm sure you've convinced yourself that forcing your morals on everyone else will protect nature, but you're wrong. I don't hunt, but all the hunters I know are dedicated conservationists. Well managed hunting is not only passive at worst, but it also creates an additional motivation to preserve species and lands.

Thank you for explaining 'unrest' to the rest of the world. No one else has that.
