well... you both are smarter than I.splat wrote:Cameron is smarter than I am about this shit, but are you finding shock forks intended to work with rigid geometry? From what little research I've done, you end up with funky angles if you just throw a fork on there. It's probably a 1" head tube too, modern chit is bigger. Ride this one into the ground and replace it with used goodness
Do you have gloves? Just about all of them have at least some padding, most have gel inserts. Cameron might be able to suggest some more cushioned grips as well - you still have some options before you get to the squishy fork bitsWillard wrote:well... you both are smarter than I.

ride to ground = I plan on it... just want my left arm to not hurt so much while I am doing it.
The new tires/tubes are on.... there has been much improvement!!!
I plan to hit the trails again this Thursday (fingers crossed that I won't have to haul it out once again).
Cheap gloves = numbness in fingertips caused by pinching of median nerve. I tried a pair of Spenco gel flex gloves and they made a world of difference. Their seats are comfy too.splat wrote:Do you have gloves? Just about all of them have at least some padding, most have gel inserts.
