I have found that installing things with alcohol isn't alway the best idea. Oh wait, you were talking about something else, weren't you? :shock: :oops: :lol: :lol: :lol: Mark

Thanks, Steve. Actually, you were on my mind as I was riding the bike and writing my report. I was thinking about your elongated chain stays and other mods. Nice bike from the box with room for upgrades and "hot-rodding". What more could a guy ask for? I just got lucky with this deal...

If I ever have the opportunity, Jon, you can bet I will. I suspect it will be pretty much the same, though I'm sure the ergonomics are a little different with the handlebar layout. Mark

I don't think I can throw it that far! :lol: :lol: Mark

I got my hands on a Sofrider to try and thought I'd share my initial impressions. The bike I have is used and needed some adjustments. Nothing real serious, but I had to extend the boom and that caused some issues with the front derailleur cable. It had apparently been to the beach as there...

No, that will bolt right on. However.... Depending on how big your front chainring is. That one is only rated for 48 teeth, max. If you have a road crankset, that may or may not shift well to the big ring. If you are running mountain bike components, you're golden. Mark

I can send a pic later,if I don't get beat to it. Mark

IndigeNousCA, I sent you a PM. Mark

Beautiful bike!!! I love the Aerospokes on there! Oh yeah, welcome to the board, too! I'm sure you can get another pump. I have two extras and if you happen to have a regular mountin bike shock pump available to you, that will work, too. Mark

I'm not a dealer, but I live fairly close (Redlands). You're more than welcome to try my bike, but it might be a few days. Busy this weekend and next. Maybe a mid-week after work thing would work. Mark

First of all, I would suggest reducing tire pressure on the front. Secondly, I would tell you that technique is everything. Are you clipped in? Are you spinning, or mashing? A smooth spin will work wonders for you. Interesting, because I ride a Silvio and have had slippage issues, but...
