looking good, as for my own achievements, sold another bike today, and i think im a littl closer to persuading the bosses to stock lapierre if this actually happens ill have a 2011 714 by christmas
btw benj the rev's are the dogs, got a set of races on my maxlight and they are awesome, rode them back to back with a 2010 fox 140m FIT and the rev felt wayyyyyy smoother. you're gonna love 'em 0 -
I dumped my SRAM at least today for some old XTR! And put new wheels and rotors on.0

Sweeeeeet!
Today, i got lost at sherwood pines There was a demo day and some NPS races (well just practice) which i didn't know about. Quick fact for you though, those weight weenie, lycra wearing cross country ladyboys are rude buggers.... Not one of them even acknowledged me today on the trail after saying hi. 0 -

I'm not riding it enough/enjoying riding it enough. The single ring was killing my already fragile knees
Since i've moved back home, my riding has had to change to whats available... and there isn't much for the NS.
I thought about upgrading to the Double Saint cranks... but that would have involved a new derailleur + a new cassette and I didn't want to throw any more money at it.
Its been a great bike, loved it! but its time to move on to lighter and faster things
