imschur Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 The "spare" bike is in my possession. Had the dealer swap out the shifters to SRAM X0 grip shifters.
98Z5V Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 That thing is gonna put your eye out!!! <lmao>
shepp Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 You like the grip shift? When I bought my trek they had first come out with it and the dealer talked me into getting it instead the quick fire, wish I had never got it.
imschur Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Posted January 21, 2014 With almost no fingers on my right hand it has to help. Also this is not my primary ride. The X0 is supposed to be awesome. We shall see.
shibiwan Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 Nice bike. I have a mix of X0 and XX components on my S-Works stumpjumper... you wont be disappointed with it.
imschur Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Posted January 21, 2014 I have never had SRAM ANYTHING before. The 26" looks so bizarre after nearly a year on the trek 29'er
shibiwan Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) I have never had SRAM ANYTHING before. The 26" looks so bizarre after nearly a year on the trek 29'er I stick to the 26.... because I'm a short fatass. The SRAM's shift better than the Shimano. I went from a 3x10 to a wide range 2x10 on my bike. Haven't drunk the XX1 Kool-Aid yet. BTW, check out http://huckingkitty.com/forums :D Edited January 21, 2014 by shibiwan
98Z5V Posted January 21, 2014 Report Posted January 21, 2014 BTW, check out http://huckingkitty.com/forums :D I STILL crack up when I see that... <laughs> <lmao>

When I bought my trek they had first come out with it and the dealer talked me into getting it instead the quick fire, wish I had never got it. I prefer the rapid fire/quick fire setup too. Now that this massive nutcruncher is shrunk, I may be able to get off the cruiser and back onto a mountain bike.
Libertarian623 Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 UHH I just remembered I haven't cleaned my bike yet from the summer. I to have the rapid shifters on my Jekyll. I just don't like the feel of the grip shifter when riding hard.

texas30cal Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) My cannondales both have engines (cannondale cannibal ATV's), too old and too much arthritis for pedal power. Edited February 17, 2014 by texas30cal
imschur Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Posted February 18, 2014 I went out two weeks ago on the trek. Ice and mud....no fun. Did test out my POV camera though. Look for an entertaining 2014 from me
shibiwan Posted February 18, 2014 Report Posted February 18, 2014 Maybe you need a fattie for the ice and mud. Like this...
imschur Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Posted February 18, 2014 My dealer has a Pugsley that is speaking to me.
imschur Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Posted February 18, 2014 PM me your username on that forum. Im going to sign up.
shepp Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Maybe you need a fattie for the ice and mud. Like this... Guy I bought my bike from was showing me his yesterday things pretty cool says it's a beast in the snow
shibiwan Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) PM me your username on that forum. Im going to sign up. Same username :D Don't have snow over here therefore I don't know about them fat bikes. They look pretty cool but seem heavy. Edited February 26, 2014 by shibiwan
shepp Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Yea his was pretty heavy I see alota guys riding them in the people's republic of Madison I know I'd eat sh!t but they seem fine. He said they were at kettle moraine state park and where the ccskiers and snow shores went it was pretty easy going but plowing thru powder was a work out.
