Latest changes to the Asylum... lost the Reba, BB7's, and Mary bars

added:
G2 F29 (switched to 100mm)
08 XT Brakes
Salsa Carbon 11* bar

Hopefully it'll improve handling and overall ride, around the block test was good.

Turns out white and silver bikes don't photograph well in bright sun, but you'll get the idea.

He told me he would sell it for 1/2 of what he paid if I took him to a Hockey game

Come to think about it I would just rather pay full price

ps. Killer bike!

Some shots of my Unit 2-9.

Still have the stock 32-18 gearing & added the carbon fork. Sprained the hell out of my wrist a few weeks ago at Chino Hills, so I have not been on it much since then. The full squish has been getting some love...but the wrist is feeling much better.

Bring on the weekend, I miss riding the SS!
