Also, final warning, I don't want to close this topic, but if hostilities continue, I have no choice.

1....I broke my bruiser
2....The NC crew sucks!
Don't close it Kona,they need a place to hate us(mostly me) and this is a good place to do that.

Also, if something doesnt work for you doesnt mean it doesnt work for other people.

Freeriding has really pushed the sport and improved equipment. Wade Simmons is my hero! I don't remember throwing down on freeriding,if I did it was my bad. As far as my sig, That came from a group ride where we were called a bunch of freeriders and someone in our party in his best Kip Dynomite voice said"your moms a freerider". That group ride incuded Gastro,Hambone and others. If you don't like me it's ok,but I totally respect freeriders.

Welds create weak spots, HUGE unneccasary gussets take lots of welds.
someone wrote something about 1500 pound spring? thats crazy.
