Rick has now returned my deposit. Now when I look at that good looking saddle, I wont have that (I got taken) feeling. Thanks Rick.

Well, you had better luck than me dealing with Rick. It's been over a year and he still has not returned my $500 seat pan deposit. He does not dispute that he owes it to me. He just will not return it. Derek

Thanks LDRydr, I took delivery yesterday. The shop that trashed the sensor is going to reemburse me.

Having that thing bouncing around in my front tire ruined that fresh rubber feeling while scrubbing in my PR3's. Vulcan tire says I can use the Smartire passenger car sensor (which they have in stock) if my rims are suitable. The shop says they are not. Has anyone tryed? I'm also looking at...

be good to yourself. 90% stems are nice but you should concider an on board tire pressure monitoring system as well. i've been using smartyre for years and i love it. i'm not sure it's available anymore but there are others discussed on this board. i want to know everytime i get on the bike that...

i had an rs1 that fit well so when i ordered the rs2 i was surprised to find it a larger fit. it also won't fit in my side bag like the rs1 did. i stuffed it with padding. i always tweak the fit a bit to suit me anyway. dh

The idea of forming an investors syndicate and picking up a bike friendly resort intrigues me. If there is enough serious interest, I suggest the members pitch some other ideas. This was just one. So what else is available out there? Derek

i live too close to toad rock to actually camp there, i do often pop in for a visit though. the owners like to say that the sound of loud pipes is the sound of friends. the riding in the area is truly spectacular. toad rock is only a few minutes ride to ainsworth hot springs as well. pm me...
