I like bikes. I can ride them fine, but I fix them better. I'm one of the few that can make a decent living doing what I love. Emphasis on decent. It's adequate, but not enough to fund the eccentric lifestyle I thought I would be living.

8 Bikes of the Giant Toa Enduro - Crankworx Rotorua 2020
@roma258: That would have been blasphemy just 3 years ago. And some crusty guys might still be offended. I concur though. I like the new Shimano 4 Piston stuff, but still prefer Code RSCs. I have needed to service 2 of my shimano clutches because they wouldn't let the derailleur spring back. Simple enough procedure though.

Video: RĂ©mi Gauvin in 'Slayer Raw' Episode 2
Pretty sure it's just marketing. They had a huge marketing campaign planned for the Slayer from the beginning. And I fell for it. Just got my full metal Slayer.

Medium Thunderbolt C50

$2900 USD
This is a stock Rocky Mountain Thunderbolt C50. It has SRAM Level TL brakes, GX Eagle drivetrain with a 10-50 cassette, DT Swiss rear hub laced to Sun Ringle SL 25mm rims, Fox Performance 34 fork and DPS rear shock with 130mm travel, full carbon frame, and Fox Transfer 150mm dropper. This has been a super fun bike. It handles and climbs amazingly well then does great when pointed downhill. Being able to adjust the geometry so easily with the Ride 9 system meant I was actually able to use it. If we were pedaling through chunky, slow stuff I would raise my BB and really enjoyed the ride more. Then if I rode some fast, slowy trails I would lower the BB to enjoy it the most. I realized after I got this bike that I do a lot more shuttling than pedaling so this bike didn't get as much use as I expected. It's still in great condition and has less than 100 miles on it. Let me know if you have questions that I didn't cover. Comes without pedals unless you convince me otherwise.
