06 model bought in 07. I am the only owner. I looked around and it is priced reasonably competitive. $1000 is a bit of a lowball offer so I am going to have to pass on that. I am older and don't DH or kick ass - I break too easily. I just wanted something that I could do aggressive XC and the geometry on this version was ideal - not too slack, not too steep.

Twenty6 Pre Runners - Custom!
Dear bike industry: They are called colors. Not Colorways. Thank-you, that is all.

first people here must understand that they have to care for what they use, even if it's a natural forest path. I think the only way to make them do it is to get them to building, but... size of that task just overwhelms me. Even to get together people who feel the same way i do, and who actualy build trails. Feels crap to realize that only thing I do is trying not rip the trails apart myself.

there was some certain amount of irony in the gnome thing. I read some articles on NSMB about the scene at your place, I know nothing, aboslutely nothing happens by itself. I have huge respect for you guys building the stuff and maintaining it. Personaly I don't do much, I have a job which I am lucky to get away from after 8h, five days a week. Sounds like an excuse I know, it's scheap one. still I helped building some trails, and well it pierces your soul when you see that some disc burners came and took your burms apart. Furthermore some people manage to destroy forest itself where there are no "artificial terrain features". Low bows to you guys, both for building and maintaining but also for forcing the attitude to the society.

hey Greg, nothing of 335, sorry! I didn't race - I can't keep up with these guys! I'd rather shoot anyways.
Have you posted your photos anywhere?

Technical Tuesday: How To Remove And Install Your Pedals
ALL threading should be greased, glued, or sealed. Using a thread specific compound will decrease your chances of stripping out a thread, not increase it - as long as you know what you're doing. If your threading is free of burrs and dirt, spin it on by hand until it is sealed against whatever you're tightening too, tap it up with a wrench, check it after a ride, and it'll be fine.
If you don't use lubricant when you're putting something like this together, the steel can actually form a bond between the threads, and create burrs in the metal the next time you remove it, causing you to use a wrench to early the next time you re-install, and possibly put to much pressure on the threads, thus, stripping them.
