That King hub is so awesome.

If I wasn't such a freecoaster nut, I'd be all over some King hubs.

What's the geo on that 24 Trails250?

And do you have any pictures of it built up?

Chainstay brakes work awesome if you've got the room for them.  If you're running 25/9 gearing, and a super short rear end, you're better off going with seat stay mounted brakes.  Since you mentioned this is for a trails oriented bike, then I'd say longer rear end might make it possible to run something like 30/11 gearing in which case you'll have plenty of room for chainstay brakes.

Dual cables with a gyro all the way!  I don't know why anyone still rides a 2into1 type gyro cable anymore...

I don't see why the Springfield brakes wouldn't be compatible with dual cables, you'd just have to make sure you have 2 knarps for the brake arms.

Probably a good way for you to do some spot searching and bring the misses along too.

Probably half the people I work with play it.  They're all above the age of 25.

I was tempted to download it while riding street this weekend as it would be a perfect alibi for if the cops rolled up asking what I'm doing.

I'd kill to find another Ruben 2.2125 tire.  Or whatever size it was that was 1 size below the 2.25

2.25 in the front and 2.2 in the back was the best tire combination I ever had.

Got any pics?

Honestly that's more than I was hoping to spend, but if nobody else pops up with anything, I'll consider it.

Looking for some cheap bars that are around the 8.75 height range and have 3-5 degrees of upsweep.

I don't care how they look as long as their not bent.  They can be rusty or have a million stickers on them. 

2 pieces, 4 pieces, eleventy pieces...  I don't really care too much as long as they're close to 8.75 and have some upsweep.
