That's sick, T. I want a mountain bike again.

Buying a bike was the worst mistake I ever made. Not because I don't like the fixed gear, I love it more than any other bike I've ever had. But I awoke the sleeping bike demon within that was laid to rest many, many years ago. I was a bike nut in high school. I anticipate having far too many bikes for my own good in the near future. I want to get a cross bike next.

Yeah same here, I rode bikes from 3 years old until 18. Then I got a car.
But now I need the work out.

Hit up Annadel. Perfect place for a workout on your mountain bike.

Made some progress finally

[Farbin Kaiber]

did you pick the frame after the hat, or vice versa?

[Stephen]

Frame first, hat later. But the combination...

[T Verdier]

So thats a steel frame right? and if so what are the advantages over aluminium?

[Stephen]

Mine is yes, mostly just that steel handles the abuse better, aluminum wont hold up as well over time
