Colorado B.S. Thread

Good call, they take monetary donations on their site. I'll email them.

 

But the Dodge.

 

What is it? The school I teach at has an outdoor education program in the summer and may use some of it.

 

Right now, a smaller hydration pack... could throw a new bladder in there if needed since I have a few, a larger backpacking pack, a sleeping pad.. maybe some other little stuff. I think I also have a 3-4 person tent as well.

 

A backpacking pack you say...

 

Haha its an older one, seen some love but its better than zero pack.

This one.. but its orange, and well used. But I dont think its torn/broken at all.

No use for us with camping gear thanks though

 

I saved the site, can't afford any gear right now but down the road would like to get new stuff

 

I did both - write up is in my build thread

 

I wish I would remember to use it all the time... but theres no special BS with it, no fees, no commission or anything else. Just click through their site so it sees what you purchase. Then it gets sent to you via paypal (may have other options) at the end of the quarter.

 

I think I'm going to have to buy the UPS/Fedex drivers a case of beer with the last two weeks.

USPS drivers on the other hand can go fuck themselves.

 

Do eet!

And a correction, REI currently doesnt have additional cash back. The percentages vary through active junky, and I'm guessing due to the sale they have they took it away for now. But I still found a wholesome two orders worth to bother my shipping friends with.

 

Yeah, found that out already but Backcountry has a few things i don't need. Index finger isn't too twitchy yet tonight though...maybe it wants more in the cart

 

More items in there means more cash back! Its simple math I tell ya. And addicting.

 

Wife and I Have been using ebates for years, but i was surprised how much better the cashback is on this one and stores that I used to use frequently a few years back are on there but were never on ebates...motivation for riding again maybe

 

Is the person who lives in Golden that owns the white 2nd gen with a bed rack, RTT, and some other expo goodies on the rack on here?

And how about the silver one with the flat bed?

 

Lemme know when you want to ride. I need to look into the damn 1x again. Really wish I could get a freehub body (probably not the technical name) that could do an 11spd to save a good chunk of change. I cased both wheels pretty hard today coming down Chimney... the one perk over carbon wheels.

And yeah, you can typically find 10%+ cash back.

 

I know I don't need to remind you, but 1x will make you wonder why they ever made front der's

If you come across a deal on hubs I can relace them for you, but you may get a better deal on a full wheelset. That is unless you are a parts whore like I used to be and want to add bling, which case I would do a custom build. Hopes, Kings, I9's, Hadley(my fav) with some nice wide rims (Stans)

see man now you triggered me

 

Nope I just need them to work, dont need anything fancy... but thats why I suspended that upgrade after I realized I might be buying a full drivetrain plus a wheelset. It'll happen sooner or later, just should've spent the extra $700 originally for the next level that had 1x.

 

If you do buy a new wheelset try to get something high engagement, you will appreciate it on technical climbs
