Allied BC40

 

that is going to be a sick bike though

 

Thanks. I can't wait.

The crazy thing is that the build Allied BC40 that I'm going for, with all frame parts manufactured and assembled in the US, is still cheaper than the corresponding

$12 SB120 Connectors Flush Mount Recessed Plate (Gray-1pc)

SB120, Epic EVO S-Works or Blur TR. It made it a no-brainer to support the local guy.

 

Stoked for you buddy. Def need to link up again sometime. Would love to fondle that Allied. I mean, respectfully check it out haha.

 

Totally. Let's do another Pinhole ride! I had a choice between getting a total knee replacement for my left knee (it's bone on bone) or a new bike. I think I chose wisely

 

that is pretty wild, for how nice of a bike that is, i'd say it's a deal haha

 

That's going to be sweet, would like to have one as well!

Allied and a 130 Arrival riding together will be sweet. Let us know when you run the 130, I haven't ordered the links yet.

 

Me either. Short shock is on the work bench. Hope to order the links later this month, and a 140 fork in the next couple months. Can’t justify the expense of all those items at one time.

 

Anyone in Utah want to join the party..

Today was NBD My Poseidon Redwood arrived today. I was able to get it assembled, but that's about it. Photos to follow, it's the matte white color they have and, in my opinion, it looks great! I had a new seat and tires waiting for it as general reviews seem to all agree the stock tires and saddle are terrible.

Edit, here’s a photo before it gets put away. I was able to get some 3M film on it tonight also. Ready to ride, just need some time…

 

Don't hesitate to throw the rear on the front, works excellent there too.

 

Makes sense. Has the DHR2 pattern, and those work awesome on the front.

 

Not sure how I’m going to explain this one to the wife, but I guess I’m a Yeti guy….for the time being.

 

Welcome to the tribe. You want to hide them in my house for a couple of weeks? In all seriousness, that SB115 is a good buy that you can sell and not lose any money. I do like your style of being able to say, "Baby- look, I got you a Yeti too!"

 

Go big and then don’t go home

 

Theres a sizable pile of ‘extras’ in the bed. Including 10 or so new tires. Buying the lot was the best bang for the buck. I honestly haven’t decided what I’ll do with them though. Resell, tear down and sell as parts

If the wife likes the ARC I’ll keep it and sell her Roscoe.

 

Ain't no way she's going to say that the sub 25lb carbon hardtail is better than her Roscoe

 

did someone say part out??

 

Send it my way with the torque wrench you beat me to

 

Stay tuned. There will most definitely be some things for sale shortly.
