Best race I have ever been to. Track was dope, people were cool, racing was hot, so was Lauren Daney.

there's gold in them thar hills.

No.

Flat pedals mask bad habits? Is that why many racers use them for training purposes, so they can slack off? hehehe. SPD's do not teach you how not to dab. You can still unclip and stick your foot out and make braaap braaaap noises all you like. You can teach your self not to dab on both kinds of pedals. It is discipline in training that allows you to learn that technique, not your equipment.

Niner doesn't give the consumer a choice. Just bikes that fall apart.

what about 650B? 29" wheels "definitely" replacing 26" as the standard. Puh-leez.

I believe Burgtec makes a 60. The Truvativ is pretty much it for tall riders. I'm glad that it isn't trying to be as low as possible like most other DM stems.

Awesome Tech Tuesday. Good work guys!

Eugene, Oregon.

Yes, he is.

"Quick-release hubs are trickier to adjust, because the quick-release mechanism compresses the axle slightly when it is tightened. If you adjust the cones so that they feel just right off the bike, they will bind up when you tighten the quick release. You must set the cones so that there is a little bit of play when the hub is off the bike, or when the wheel is installed with the quick-release just barely tightened." - http://www.sheldonbrown.com/cone-adjustment.html
