Yes, perhaps someone could move the thread to where I should have started it: Reader's Bikes 1998 -->

Today I sanded the lettering off of the Trigon fork and (since there's a second one of them on its way) installed it on the larger Adroit Pro. This was done by using an MC3.1 to inch and an eighth headset adapter kit from David at http://www.themacaddress.com/ which works superbly. With Slime...

I've only had it for a week, but during that time I've ridden with it on every type of surface that I ever ride on here in Arizona: on the road, including hard sprints, very hard braking, and very fast cornering as well as jumping up and down curbs; on uneven dry and wet grass, and on level...

Joe, it's good to see you posting here. I heard about this thread on the Breezer Bikes Facebook page, here: http://www.facebook.com/BreezerBikes Here's a picture of my 2000 Breezer Lightning that I took last fall, followed by three more pictures that I took last weekend: I...
