I've always found the prices at Halter's to be very competitive. (Not all LBSs are, though). When I factor in all the free advice i get, the knowledgeable staff and the awesome trail building at 6 Mile I think it's more than competitive; it's a bargain.

Count me in for some Central Jersey night riding.

You should be in good shape for this afternoon. Yesterday's weather was similar and when I rode 6M in the afternoon it was approaching perfection.

Thanks, Jason, The new wheels seemed to have taken care of the problem. Awesome recommendation, btw. The new Arch EX hoops are sweet.

I have a relatively new (1 year old) set of Magura Louises. Overall I really like these brakes but I cannot figure out how to make the rear caliper stop squealing. I changed the pads and tried adjusting the caliper alignment. No difference. Any ideas?

Can you let us know how it is? Thinking about riding there Friday.

Anyone ride there today? How are the conditions?

Awesome! Thanks for the input, guys.

I'm converting my SS to a 1x10. Will I need to change the chainring too? I have a Truvativ Stylo Crankset.

Brand new, never mounted. I got this through the Mavic crash replacement program this past summer but never used the wheel. $250 or b/o.

I grew up about an hour from these trails and head back there at least once a year to ride with my fellow Massholes. Here's a vid I put together from last November. http://vimeo.com/34204926
