I don't know whats worse the confined space or the pure muck of music they were playing over the headphones :D

centerlock bruh.

I have shimano rotors and it was nice to have rotors that were not bent. Just need to get some better brakes to replace my tektro dracos. Probably shimano slx or shmiano zees. Shimano just seems to always work.

 

 

Centerlock is best lock mang!

I've used Shimano centerlocks for my last two bikes; nothing wrong with them.

 

People are starting to mix Zee with SLX / XT / XTR parts --  implement some of the nice downhill parts& technology with a lower price point compared to Saint / XTR.

  • Really short cage Zee Derailleurs
  • Zee downhill brakes

This is great if you have a 1X drivetrain (since Zee is intended for that anyways)

 

 

Dem sexy figurines :D.

My cousin has a bunch of those.

 

 

I don't know if you are into the Gundam stuff...but I have been trying to get my hands on one of these Mighty Beasts for some time. :ph34r:

Too bad Japan customers get 1st priority before international customers get a chance...so it is always out of stock....

 

The new molding technology where the joints are "properly" controllable (quite literally like human hands, legs, etc) is mind-blowing.

Yes, each finger has the proper three joints.

I meant i was going to get some SLX leavers and mix them with zee calipers because zees and saints are 4 pot. Im am currently running sram for my drive train. 1x9 with a short cage x7 mech and close ration road block. Also have absolute blacks elliptical NW ring on the front. While i love mecha i dont really bother with gundams. Series is really fucking long and i dont feel like jumping into it at this point. I do like super robots though and have kotos shin getter 1 on preorder. The 2 genres i watch the most of are super robot stuff and magical girls.

Ohhh, SLX and Zee blend.

Good idea. So far my whole bike is using full SLX parts aside from the shifters levers (the peasantry Altus) -- I guess they had to cut corners somewhere to keep it within the price range. I was thinking about switching those out to SLX, but the brand-new XT line (M8000 series) looks so awesome. If I had the money to burn...full convert to XT M8000.

shifters are a terrible place to cut costs, they have more of an effect on shifting performance than a lower end mech. Bike would have been better off specced with deore and slx or even xt shifter. Although rear mechs are more visible and that looks good in a shop which is why they do it.

Out of curiosity, since you seem to know a bit about pedals, I have 2 pedals, one a zoom 707II multi-effect the other a Zakk Wylde crybaby wah by Dunlop.  Anyways, they refuse to make sound unless I shove something like the bottom of a cable into either the output side of both while putting the pedals at weird angles.  Any idea on how to fix this?  I mostly care about the Zakk Wylde one since I have Johnson JM-150 with the J12.

Sounds like a loose connection from the fact that it only works at weird angles.

If you open it up and check the input jacks to make sure that the cable makes contact with everything, and that everything's soldered correctly.

Dont buy this card, it looks like the OC card but they will send the standard card and then not replace it when you ask them about it, just offer a refund so it all gets forgotten and they get let off the hook for mis advertising.post-194718-0-90793800-1433496032.jpg

I have purchased the best guitar amp simulator thing I could ever hope for! Excluding the arguments about whether or not it sounds better than a tube amp (I don't know because I haven't used the real thing the AxeFx II models), having the capability to have any guitar tone I could possibly imagine is incredibly useful for me. I couldn't be happier!

Yes it is. The second child loves babies and is all excited about it. However i realize i am going to have to child proof all over again. I will have to put latches on my computer desk drawers or i will have cables and parts dragged out everywhere and baby will he using a corsair fan as a teething ring lol.
