I havent played PB in so long. I've been kinda bummed. Weekends have been so busy with work and other commitments. But I have been into bikes lately. I got a cool beach cruiser. Anyone else into bikes? What kinda bike u got?

Bikes are cool, so far I have an Atala, a Benotto, a Bianchi, a Chiorda, a Gios, a Paramount, 2 Pinarellos, a Rossin, and a Specialized P2 mountain bike. I have "Campagnolo" tatooed on my shoulder, girls never seem to be able to pronounce the name, the exception being a flight attendant from Milan. ------------- For I will wander to and fro, I'll go where I no one do know, |

most of those forks have barely any morre travel and marzocchi is a good brand so it should be good. i wont do anything real big until i get my norco. i will do up to a 6 foot drop on this one. when i get the norco i will get a litlle crazy. this is the norco i am gonna get in a couple of years.
Norco Torrent. my BIG hit bike. i will probaly do most anything on one of these. what do you think the torrent needs, to be worthy of a little punishment? ------------- I LIKE BIKES! |
Posted By: youm0nt
Date Posted: 21 August 2004 at 6:13pm
| a chain guide for that norco.the rest seems fine to me.if you're not jumping with that haro,its fine stock. |

I do jump like about maybe five foot high doubles and table tops. i will also do drops up to about six feet. i ride trails with trees laying across them that you have to bunnyhop, will the rims be alright if i hit the rear rim on a log. the rims are http://tippmann.com/l - Alex DM18 Double Wall 32h . are they strong enough for the riding i described? also what chain guide do you suggest for the norco? ------------- I LIKE BIKES! |
Posted By: youm0nt
Date Posted: 21 August 2004 at 7:48pm
i dont think the stock fork will be good for you're jumping.  get a e.13 chain guide by evil

what much travel do i need for jumping? are those rims pretty tough?

| over 100mm.im saying the fork isnt good for jumping because thats not what its designed for.it will break if you abuse it.its a cross country/trails fork.designed for very little jumping. |
