Winter is, for many of the less fortunate, repair time. Time to drop the bike off at the shop for the major projects, which means that you take some time off or pick up a new hobby with a little New Year's Resolve. Well, not this year. We are really pleased to announce that we now have RockShox demo forks available in three different models: Reba Team Dual Air, Revelation Team Dual Air, and Reba 29 Team Dual Air! If you've been toying with the idea of a fork upgrade, but aren't sure how it will change the feel of the bike, let us set you up for a demo! The three places that really determine the feel of your ride are frame, fork, and wheels. Take the fork out to your turf, and put it to your own test; it might just be the motivation you need to keep rolling right through Old Man Winter! This also means that if you are bringing us your bike for a fork repair, we can set you up with a temporary replacement so you can keep your tires in the dirt while we perform your maintenance or arrange for factory direct service.The Revelation is on an all new chassis for 2010, and with travel options all the way up to 150mm, this is one mean fork. Check SRAM's website for more info on all of the available options for each of these models, and then come in and feel one for yourself! All feature Dual Air, which allows for independent tuning of the positive and negative air spring chambers and is among the lightest air spring systems available, Dual Flow independent damping circuits (with external beginning/ending rebound adjustability), and BlackBox Motion Control, which adds "Dual Flow damping which allows separate return speeds for big and small hits resulting in suspension that floats over both stutter-bumps and root webs. The titanium spring and carbon fiber compression knob are just dead sexy." These aren't your grandpa's RockShox.
And while you're out riding in these unprecendented frigid temperatures, if you're looking for some secrets to warmth, here are my picks:
