    Been a loooong time..

    Hey all, I used to be pretty active on here and on my bike - a ridiculously heavy old downhill rig. Always ridden bikes since about 4 years old, but I eventually stopped riding as gym and other pursuits took over. It's stayed in the back of my mind for a few years and lately I've been wanting to...

    Track Bike - Bottom bracket question

    I currently have as my 'alternative to DH' a 2012 Jamis Sonik track bike. It's good fun but I'm running into the same problem as the DH bike where everything is starting to give way under my weight. I wanted to ask if anyone has any experience in swapping out the bottom bracket and crankset...

    DH - Mongoose Black Diamond Double

    Thought I'd through up a few pics of my toy - just started back into riding after a 4 or so year hiatus. Currently looking at changing front fork (thinking maybe dual crown?) and rear shock as I keep bottoming out on the current one. Any suggestions are welcome! Also, I have no idea if this is...
