Taiwan Show Days 2,3 And 4

[How]

ive been impressed with the stifness of my Profile SS cranks but i wouldnt buy another pair if i didnt get a deal or something since they are NOT cheap. they unscrew and become loose cuz there is no pinch bolt on bolt or somethin. i just know they do. I dunno, I liked the FSA Xtreme Drive 3 Pc Chromos. They were nice. I woulda kept those if i could go back.

Yeah, mine do that too, just throw some light loctite on the bitchen' bolts and you'll be set, I bet X-Drives do the same thing, they don't have a pinch bolt.

i talked at length with a couple of sram engineers about freeride rear derailleurs. i suggested a 12-34 6 speed setup with a super fat chain. they said it wouldn't shift as crisp and i countered that bikes with 8-10" of travel don't shift worth shit anyway. at least with the wider sprocket spacing of 6 speed, the chain won't jump sprockets from vibration and mystery shift when you're climbing a skinny. i also suggested using an 800lb spring in the rear derailleur to increase chain tension. ha ha ha

DUDE I WANT THAT!!! As you might know I broke my foot due to a chain failure, so i'm not trusting mtb chains much more....i would buy a oversized chain gear setup in a second! Pip you should make one yourself and ill prototype it

dude,

front me the cool million for tooling and i'll even put your name on it. making chains ain't cheap. the bug is in sram's ear. that's about as far as i can go.

Pip, can you/did you take any pictures? I wanna see this Triple8! Is it standard or inverted? Any changes coming up to the Shiver or Monster? I am guessing Shiver will see MX cartridges in 04?
