RIP.

 

Yeah, some tourism groups brought him out here last summer and he rode a bunch of different stuff over three days. He rode this place on day one and talks about the Coke machine pretty early in the video.

 

Not that it would help in this case, but why is it that the urban rats never wear helmets?

 

Cuz it isn't "cool" Seriously, thats the only reason. same with skate culture.

 

Went on a ride to test the rack prototype. This style would work with fork mount racks, but I need to offset the mount a bit if I want to have a rack that keeps the front wheel on and have access to the rear doors.

If interested stay tuned here: SideRide from Squareone Creations Update, Q & A Thread

 

Here is how I have mine. Still have access to the backdoor.

Doesnt help that our Transitions have a massive wheelbase

 

You have pretty good clearance with the tent? I've been thinking about moving one of my 1Up racks down to the frontrunner bars like that.

 

Went to swap my 1up roof rack from my hitch to my bedbars yesterday and found that their "flush" hardware isn't compatible with my 80/20 aluminum crossbars. They also didn't include standard mounting hardware in addition to the "flush" stuff. It's either one or the other, apparently.

Grrr... #firstworldproblems

 

That’s dope! Mine mounts on the bed rails so I need to offset the next version a bit lol

my Sentinel barely fits in my Thule Sidearm!

 

Yep, My sentinel is even at the ~80% mark on my 1up. Not sure how Pinkbike is gonna be able to transport the Grim Donut

 

DOOOOOOOD I CANNOT WAIT for the next episode lol

Back doors are a privilege haha

 

my tent opens to the passenger side. So I have to take the bike down when camping but it clears fine once I do that.

 

Threw some Saint Calipers on my XTR levers. Between new pads and full flush and bleed I’m guessing 50% more power over the 2 Pot XTRs.

 

I grew up skating, from 5th grade till college in NYC. No one would wear a helmet, that's super Jerry status. Imagine a dude rollin up with a roadie helmet, spandex, and Gform'ed up. That's about half as dork-sport as a helmet for a skater. At some point, it matters.

Man those Saint calipers are no joke. The train-stopping power is ridiculous. I just remembered I have a set, sitting in the bike-shit box. I should probably sell those...

 

Damn. I just paid $200 for these.

 

Damn, sorry man wish I posted them up before. Would have taken that for the whole chalupa.

 

how about a 2 chalupa combo meal? I’m in
