    you get a thanks just for having a rocking name :welcome:

    go sawtooth. I know for a fact that they leave a sweet tattoo. I can show you mine sometime if you like.

    can't wait to see the video. I'm going to guess: toptube mounted?

    If it's a bullet-style cam, I'm a fan of putting it on the fork lowers pointed up. such a funny view...

    or, you coul get a coat hanger and do the helmet cam with it looking back at your face. man those are trippy...

    I do, it makes you go 1/10th of a second faster

    the audio swap should have taken place, and sorry the sun was in a bad spot...

    nice video, but damn dude, you can either go faster or back off on the compression on that fork. never used more than 6" of the travel...

    we can rebuild him. smarter, faster, PLUSHER :bang:

    The thing is maybe the trail doesn't require all the travel. I have never rode it so I cant say. If you make its softer then you may end up really bottoming out on bigger things.
