Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

When I got the Assaults I remember it being hard to locate a pair. Since it appears easier to do so now, I will invest in a set. The DA pads do brake just fine, however.

Those are the kinds of things I'm envious of. Much of the other stuff, to borrow a phrase, is white noise.

The topic is allowed, you just need to do it in a forum where Razor has access. It's not fair to discuss his project in here when he can't respond.

Does this also apply to any member who has been banned? umd or ryanf, for example? They're discussed pretty often and I've never seen the same issue arise.

Sweet. No hurry, when you put the new one on, just take a measurement on it if you would.

The post and those that followed it contained nothing derogatory, insulting, mean, or false (to my recollection).

From now on, I'll be happy to report any posts where someone says umd deserved to be banned or ryanf is an abusive boyfriend.

agree. The murdered out look on the 46's is hot. I think a Sram quarq would fix the crankset issue nicely.
