    if its on your phone send it to TW live and then it will be in your gallery then just copy the code at the bottom of the picture

    if its on a camera, upload to the computer then either get a flickr, photobucket, etc. or go to your profile, click on the camera under your name, and then to the right towards the top it will say upload photo and after it is uploaded copy the code.

    You can either attach them or use IMG tags. It's all spelled out in the link'd document.

    That's pretty nasty looking! How's the rear suspension? Any complaints?

    Here are some pictures of my bike after a long, painful overhaul. Pretty modest but it suits me!

    P.s. I recommend tubeless tires to anyone who hasn't got them yet, they rock!

    X2, just went with crossmax sx tubeless and love it! I went with a WTB TSC which is basically a UST bead but lighter carcass then a dose of Stan's and couldn't be happier. Running about 28 psi.

    Hey guys don't have a picture of my bike but i have a Jamis Dakar. I have a few questions tho. I wanna upgrade my bike with a better front shock and a disc brake setup. I dont need a hydraulic brake system, I think mechanical would be fine and some better tires.

    My question is: would I be better off paying for new parts or just buying a new bike? I was looking at the giant reign2 as a new bike but it's $2100.

    Any thoughts/comments appreciated:D

    That's a tough question. You could easily put 400 to800 $ in upgrades and not have as good of a bike as the Giant, so may be better to go ahead and save for the new rig. Also, depends on type of riding. The JD is xc and the GR is all mountain, so if you're getting more into the sport and your skills have improved and your craving more aggressive technical terrain then definitely get the Giant.

    Depends if you like your current bike. If you do not have discs today, you will need to invest in hubs that will accept the disc in addition to the brakes themselves. You could be spending more than the original cost of your bike on upgrade parts. At that point, you'd be better off selling your Jamis and getting a Giant (or some other brand).

    Cool guys thanks. My bike now is comfortable but I'm just concerned about the cost of upgrades. I'll probably just end up buying the new giant and keeping the Dakar as more of a xc for regular non abusive use hahaha.

    Picture taken in December 2010 at the entrance to a G-out on Graham Swamp MTB in Flagler County FL. Pretty fun bike. Got the frame in early 2007 new for $500 from Bob's Bikes. Running 6" front and 6" rear suspension. Pedals great and hauls azz. :D

    Nice pic and nice rig Terry. I had an 03 Wolf Ridge as my first full susp. and loved it. How much does your Marin weigh?
