Something is a foot with Almonds. I walked into our local "fleet farm" the country version of home-depot blended with Walmart; and the there must have been a couple hundred different bins with various forms of Almonds derived this and that.

She is correct. I purchased the GXP version year one: 24x22mm; punched out the shim year 2 to run 24x24mm, year 3 reinstalled the shims to run 24x22mm. The sleeve mounts on the inside of the non drive side cup. There is a photo of it in post #40 of this thread...

To get the best mount on those brakes you'll want to cut the second shortest bolt about 1 cm; the short one is too short and the next one is too long. To do that; I screwed a 4 or 5 mm thread tap on to the bolt; then used a tiny $10 pipe cutter from Home depot to take 1cm off the end; then...

Lee, Not too far off the mark from what I'm doing with the primal endurance; although I'm starting a step earlier. I'm combining Trainer Road Structured Plans with the primal endurance stuff to get a minor hybrid, but it's still adhering to the correct carbs at the correct levels in conjunction...

Flattery ... we accept that here. These guys are right up your alley. Small US company focus on off road / all weather / race durable stuff. Head support guy exchanged 5 emails with me last year while he was hiking the grandcanyon with his family on vacation, and managed to get me parts while...

Motorized BB I knew it. That's a GXP crank 24x22mm spindle so The equivalent ones you want; and from memory who rides them. Larry, Bob, Joe, Lief: http://www.enduroforkseals.com/id332.html (Only one price; this is the one in the video). Rick and a few others...

That's a good question. The XD-15 just simply out performs anything I've tried including SRAM, Shimano, Rotor, and Hope. The hopes came is a close second. I originally was looking for weather proof when I found RWC. The Cheap SRAM's that come with only last about 1 season and then I have...

From 2014... an actual study The Effects of a Ketogenic Diet on Exercise Metabolism and Physical Performance in Off-Road Cyclists Still reading through it but it's nicely crossl-inked to 42 other studies and papers so it's a good place to follow idea thread outward from. More readable than...

I think that's what's really pushed my slow speed handling obsession. When I first learned the bike, I went straight out on the road to get up over 18mph because that's when the bike was stable. With the Silvio Bullhorns the bike was rock stable if it was going in a straight line at 18mph. Of...

I'm pretty sure Tim's solo rides are a race against Tim Turner :) Nope I can ride both still and the V20 is different. Subjectively (no actual measurements taken) 1) Better fit for the boom length. 2) Front end feels lighter 3) Front end is even more stable at speed 4) Better fit "vertically"...

There are a few: Re-stabilize after over steering due to obstacle like pot hole How fast can I change directions to either 180/270 out of a crash; I'm pretty good at 270's at this point. S-curve around a car or pedestrian. Dog dogging (Farm dogs come out of no where, and Collies like to Heard...

Yeah that might be worth the tripod camera; I'm definitely not stationary. There's definitely a counter lean out to weight the tires, a whole body lean in to carve the turn; and a timing to the change of direction steering occurs to match foot position. I was thinking very actively about it...

I thought about using some 1mm BB spacers (between the shell and the cups) last year but wasn't sure what that would do to the q-factor of if I would have noticed.

Lee that's interesting. What's the BCD on that MTB Set; and the follow question, what cranks did you find that can fit that small ring on the V20? Or are you going do modifications. Can't wait to see what that looks like done. IF not for the FWD 23x28 is wheelie territory. That's always my...

Wood Chipper was the 46cm Cowchipper was the 46cm The Midge there is only one side, they describe in detail: Geometry: width at the ends - 554mm - centre/centre. Width of flat section or tops - 375mm Overall drop - 112mm centre/centre. Sweep forward - 64.5mm centre/centre (from centre of bar...

That would depend on whether you go east or west and how long :) Remember the V20 is going to carry you a long ways in short time; Your available riding zone will definitely increase.
