DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Which shop?

 

I’m pretty sure my battery is still OEM

 

Mmmmm I am looking at some Box Components right now...

I did get in the new Race Face Chester Pedals and WTB Saddle today, going to try and install them tonight at some point....

Also looking at a stealth axle for my front fork now since the front tire never comes off anyways.
And pretty sure I am going to get away from the camelback and go with a hip pack instead... just more $$$

Which shop.... ha. I need help trying to do this 1x11 setup.

 

Are you guys running tubeless? If not you should! I haven't changed a flat since I changed over!

 

Currently I am not as I was wearing down the stock crappy tires I had on the bike and then was going to get new tires and go tubeless. But my friend that came down last week gave me a pair of really nice Maxxis tires before we rode and didn't have rim tape with him, so will need to take the tubes out and switch them to tubeless.

 

I wished I’d seen your post a couple of hours ago. I just purchased mine from the State over the phone. Got tired or driving to shops listed online just to find out they either didn’t have them, didn’t sell them or didn’t even know what they were. Mine cost $21.95 ($16 + 5.95 for shipping). It will come by certified mail, so someone has to sign for it.

 

Mine died a few months ago. I got 2.5 years out of it, that seems to be the going rate

 

I havent heard of box but I'm relatively new into the MTB scene. I'll check them out. I'm super happy with everything so far. I just finished swapping out my blown fox triad for a rockshox monarch RC3 plus today and took it for a spin. Man does that make a huge difference .

 

It is what I was recommended by my friend for what I could more than likely afford and he has run some of their stuff before.

Pretty sure Seth with Seth's Bikes Hacks runs Box Components

Oct 2015 here and going strong unless I got drunk and don’t recall.

Speaking of...

 

Which bottle opener works better ?

 

That TRD one is janky for $12...

 

Good morning fellas

 

Be my papa?

 

Your first name is my last name. We’re basically family, so yes!

 

Did they tell you how long it would take to get here? I ordered mine three weeks ago, and I'm still waiting. But, they may not have been available yet.

 

We got ours at the same time. I still don't have my decal. The order page said two weeks.

 

That's good to know. I'm not sweating it as I still have the receipt in my glove box, but I seem to miss things in the mail all the time.

 

Well they said it normally takes about 15 days, but they are having issues with their order fulfillment system. Apparently it is causing delays in getting these fulfilled and mailed out. No estimate on how long it will actually take, but I should expect it to take a while.

 

The charity event turned out great. A lot of money was raised, bourbon was drank, barrels were picked and bbq was consumed.
