Lee, I am considering purchasing an SX Trail Frame and I would like to hear your thoughts on the durability of the Specialized Pivot Bearings and the seat height adjustability with the interrupted seat tube design. The SX looks like there might be 4 inches or so of adjustment. I currently ride an 03 5 […]

Location: The sickest square mile on Earth, with two 4X course and a DS course. Let’s hope for good weather. 2. It’s been hard to keep this secret: Steve Wentz […]
Let’s say you’re all hanging out, pump pump pumping, and someone decides it’s time to name a champion. Until the National Pump Track Association gets formed, anyone can hold the world championships. Here’s my proposal:
