DH Death Rattles.

[moorey]

It’s old 68-73...but leaving tomorrow, and the XTR are fine. Plenty of us used to rock them on DH bikes back in the day. Kept the weight down from 21.5kg to 21.4. Devil is in the detail.

I used to lust after Orange bikes in magazines back in the late nineties. Gotta admit, they still do something for me...

You’re.

My mate just dropped my Zee cranks back in. Think I’ll blow out the weight to 15.3 and run them for peace of mind.

Damn straight. Will make @Hipstar relieved he didn’t spend $8k on something new, shorter travel and heavier...

I dropped from 34t to 32t, to compensate.

He would. They do sick jumps....when others ride them.

Do you have a bike in the shed for every year after 2000?

Sweet looking ride. Rip mad skids over the finish line.
