Thumbs up You walk the walk & talk the talk....grasshoppers!

I've got to commend you guys at Adrenaline. Although I rarely get up in your neck of the woods, I now would consider stopping at the shop just to check you guys out from the comments on this thread... but more than that, you guys live the life as well. In so many LBS,' the owners rarely get out and ride... too busy and hence sometimes loose touch with their marketplace. You guys seem to have your priorities straight and ride the ride and support the events (most important).

Not only that, but you have some damn fine riders (Gabe comes to mind) that know an Action Tec fork when they see one and can make hucking look easy for old men like me.

Keep up the good work.... but don't get cocky!

I was going to comment on how my FRIEND'S at Adrenaline have been more than helpful over the years.... noticed Gabe's post was edited (yet agin) by The Godfather. Congratulations are in order- the 50th Gabriel Zink post (in a row) that has been edited or deleted!!! A record that will surely never be broken.

God Bless Gabriel Zink- The King of All Knuckleheads!

After visiting all of the shops listed on this forum in the OC area in order to find the perfect bike for me, I found the most knowledge and the least BS and by far the best prices at Adrenaline. Special thanks to Gabe for answers to my incessant noob questions. I love my new Yeti 575, especially since Gabe got rid of the squeeks. He drinks beer??????????.

I needed a bike with wheels and there I found one.
Those guys really pump my nads.
They are so swell they even made my wheels round.

That sounds exactly like me. I went in and asked him a million questions and ended buying a 575 too. I'm going nuts waiting for it to be finished, my hardtail is in need of retirement.

Not every nail can handle the big hammer(that would be nealeo). They're actually making him a whole new frame. He put the PUSS back together and will continue to school us all!
