i raced for 7 years, and i hope to get back on the track soon. Not in a serious way, just float a fews jumps and whatnot. So many parks are shut down in my area and the street is less as people skatestop more stuff, so it will be something to make up for that stuff.

0.8Ghz is a noticeable difference and going from i5 to i7 is also quite noticeable so I'd say shell out for the 4.0. I haven't payed attention to computer technology in the past couple years so I can't give you any more information than that.

thanks!

are they both i5 or is the 4.0 an i7?

The time is coming for a new computer soon. Right now B&H has a refurb iMac for a pretty good deal as far as I can tell. It has a 3.2GHz Intel Core i5 Quad-Core and the new ones can go up to 4.0. I don't know about computers like that. When it comes to processing HD (and 4k in the future) footage, how huge of a difference will it make? Worth a good bit more of money in the long run?

Anyone recall if they were about as thick as the old t-nez grips? Also if they were particularly long or short? I found some and if they are that fat and not oddly short, I might go for them.


Thanks!

Looking for a low frame with a short rear end?

yep! if the benny l had a 11.5bb it would be ideal. Also I've become accostumed to a 75.5ha, which makes my options less. I'm sure I could adapt to a 75 again but after this long I rather keep with what I know works for me already.

I had a benny l with a pivotal and it wasn't bad

 doesn't look bad but i know i felt like i was falling off of the back of it all the time when i sat down.

The Bike Shop / 69 degree seat tube angle and seat/post types

« on: December 16, 2014, 08:49:39 AM »

Ok here's the deal. Unless I get enough money for a custom, next time i need a frame I'm getting a benny l frame. its the closest i can get to custom for me. I had a frame with a 69 degree seat tube angle before and it put my pivotal seat in a weird position. it was either way too cranked back or so flat forward that it looked pretty off. I was curious if anyone had a picture of a tripod seat set up on a frame with a 69 degree seat tube angle so I can see if that works better with it. Thanks.

I sure hope we see the coaster from them who's patient stopped Profile dead in their tracks with their FC plan.

oh damn

haha yeah of course that patient could be the g-coaster stuff, which I think we aren't suppose to expect soon?
