those single forks are soooo sketchy for me.... i wouldnt feel comfortable riding that

It's actually stiffer than any traditional fork, and has the same set up at the traditional Head Shok's that C'dale made for awhile.  The main reason I sold this and bought the Specialized Stumpy was service...had a hard time finding mechs that would work on the Lefty.

But it does look weird for sure...it did make front tire repairs easy though, never had to remove the wheel!

If you haven't mtb'ed Utah, you just need to.  It is a magically delicious red rock place...

I ride the TCR as much as I can.  I avoided the roadie thing for many, many, years. Now I'm enjoying it up to the point of shaving my legs and taking epo. Won't go there.

Here's my Trance- converting to 1x10 was the best thing I ever did.

Dude....you sold everything, even the T2? If you ever need to borrow a rig, let me know.

My ride looks like a dinosaur compared to what most of you are riding.



All steel frame, no suspension (other than the flex in your legs).




Disk brakes?  I've heard of them.


At least part of the shifting system is sort-of indexed, so not completely old-style there.


And lastly, some of you may have only heard of these, but never actually seen them . . .

I've had too many bikes over the years to list. I do miss riding, I just got tired of the long drives to the trail heads. Especially because I live in Long Beach and worked in Irvine for the past 6 years, so I was really burned out on driving by the time the weekend came.
