Marin Man my old forks are looking so cool on your bike - Great Job ! Although am surprised you get any travel if you've put 120 lbs pressure in them !!

 

[marin man]

You joined :shock: Well done
The travel is still good because I am not too light myself
And the manual says max 140 psi for fat people
so 110/120 for me is good
As this is my garage queen ride anyway

.."hoist by your own petard, fella"

blue=Gay
Carbon quad-spokes =Gay (and poor)
Carbon quad spoke rims on mtb =really gay
Tyres without knobbles = gayer than really gay
Bike weighing over 18lbs = off the gay scale

Camper than a row of pink tents :wink

 

[marin man]

Oh sh.t You found me

 

[marin man]

Should I fit my black and blue k.nobbs to my klein as they are lighter than my slicks :shock: (kevlar bead) but will the blue be too much :?:
