    Raised-Reversed Stem

    Wondering people's opinions of the raised-reverse stem or if anyone has tried it. The reviewers all seemed to have the opinion that they probably wouldn't get one, but they would change their current set-up to a shorter stem and higher bars. I can definitely see it's benefits on steep downhills...

    Prescription riding glasses issue

    I bought some prescription riding glasses. My eyes aren't that bad, but I wanted to be able to see more detail further up the trail, especially in lower light. I used them for the first time yesterday and found that it threw off my depth perception a little. It was tough for me to judge the...

    Ringwood MTB Video

    A diehard mountain biker hired me to make a video of him to show at his 60th birthday party and Ringwood is his favorite spot. Got some cool shots of the features around the Warm Puppy area. I don't ride there often, but you guys do great trailwork there.

    sag for Fox forks

    The Fox manual is telling me I should only run 20% sag on 170mm fork. Shouldn't it be more like 25-30% for a fork that size? I've only had Rockshox before this and they recommend more sag than 20%.

    Numbered Rocks

    I saw a bunch of rocks in the Roaring Rocks area with painted numbers on them. It looked official, not graffiti. Anyone know what the plans are?

    Quality Derailleur hangers. Is there such a thing?

    I feel like I have to keep re-straightening my derailleur hanger after every few rides (crash free). I know that they are supposed to be the weak-link to keep other things from breaking, but are there some that are too flimsy? I had to replace my OEM hanger at the peak of the bike parts...

    What was up with all the fire trucks today??

    There must have been 3 fire trucks in the parking lot when I finished my ride. Anyone know what happened? Didn't look like anything was burning.

    Best type of flat pedal pins

    The best gripping pedals I've had have always used the Grub screw type of pin (with threading on the outside of the pin). However, I see a lot of companies with alternative pins types such as hexagonal (such as Oneup pedals)or hollow pin (Hope F20). They claim to have the same grip but without...
