chaser

got out on the new 29er frame, Was gonna take it to belmont, but heck with the current state smoothness of Wissahickon trails, why not test it out there.

I ended my ride like many rides, sitting outside with a beer, watching the sun fall and clicking a few photos. As the sun was just reaching the tree line, I knew I had to beat it to make it to the top of the bridge to get a shot with the bike up there.

Did the prowling online and came up with the Salsa Mamasita for my 29er choice. Thinking its gonna meet my needs, that mr. gary fisher came up short on. It rides nice, the rear triangle is really something, combined with the rights tire pressure it sticks the tracking of the tire to the ground, with no paint can shaking machine riding feeling. The front end, good, I ride rigid, but to make this bike perfect, maybe a short travel, simple fork would be nice up front. Really, a non-burly 30-40mm travel fork. Just a bit to take out the bumps that the 29er wheels don't grab up. Is there a fork out there like that, time to click away on the Inet and discover.
up to Bethlehem, to entice people to be entertained by losing money. Casino. If you get a chance look at the salsa's rear. After one ride, its not really fair to say, but its the leading horse in the shed. xxoo. dlowe.
