| you won't find many bushes that don't get play after a while, Fox, RS, Manitou or marzocchi, first time i tried to explain the brown peat stains on my forks the US guys didnt know what i meant, then they realised the stuff we ride in eats into the metal. Had a Californian friend who i go riding with, she's been into mountain bikes for 15 years and we were out in Phoenix at start of year when she says " did you know SPD pedals dont work in mud??" she was serious, she'd only found this out because CA had a bad winter and she'd had to go out riding when the trails were wet. She works for a fork maker!! |
