Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

At least 300 to leave room for bantering. Post more pics of it here so it will be easy for me to copy, need pics of the part where it says Easton, the front and rear derailleur and the size. I'll do the rest and I'll give you a link to the ad.

 

The bike was a bit more than a grand when new and it has decent components. This bike is also in excellent condition, as if the previous owner didn't ride it much. I dont' like the fork though, that could be upgraded. The frame which is Easton is super light and as of now, one brand that I know of makes them and it's Rocky Mountain, which is a Canadian brand. The next lightest metal bike is Titanium. Granted mine is a great bike, I would not pay the $7,000 price that it has on it now for the exact same frame. And that's the frame alone. I'd rather use that money to upgrade my truck to a TRD OR.

 

okay will take pics tomorrow right now im getting pumping iron lol

 

Oh good gawd.

You know you're over there trying to build muscles but lemme tell you something. You ain't nothing till you're able to pump my fat butt.

Edit!!! : I MEANT LIFT ME UP, because I'm not a skinny boney thing, I'm fat.

 

Got a guy on a forum wanting a new stereo installed in his 2011 Taco (preferably Roseville area). Here's his requirements (and he insists on buying it at a store where they will install it). Recommendations?

Here are his requirements/wish list:

1st priority is Bluetooth with voice activated commands for receiving and making calls. I currently have a Samsung Captivate but will probably get a Galaxy 3 before the end of the year. My Captivate links to my 2013 Santa Fe and I can do everything with voice commands except initiate a call which requires a push of a button. The Santa Fe automatically uploads contacts whenever I get in the car. Looking for similar functionality.

Preferred location for dealer would be north of Hwy 50. Closer to Roseville the better.

Navigation is secondary as I already own 3 Garmin GPS units one with lifetime maps. Haven't seen any of the ads mention anything about how they update maps/POI and how much it costs but maybe I just missed it. Just thought built in navigation would be nice but maybe I just need a radio that has the Bluetooth features I want with a nice LCD display to access them.

I do not have JBL. Listening to something other than talk radio is something I rarely do and then it is usually a CD. I don't want satellite or HD radio since based on the HD radio feature in my Santa Fe it fades in and out. I had to turn it off which would be a MUST requirement for any radio that had HD capability.

Money is always a consideration but I'm willing to go up to $1K installed if I like the unit enough. And hopefully the installer would have already done a few Tacoma's.

I've heard about Parrot systems that connect to the existing radio but last time I checked they don't work with the Captivate. But maybe they do now that a updated version of Android is available for them.

 

i bench 225 for my working sets, i don't know how much you weight but you deff not heavier than 225

 

Ummm Eric? ERmmmm..

Will you do me a favor please? Will you please clean the derailleurs and re take the photos? I can use the frame measure one and the Easton one but to be honest, In the cycling world it's kind of rude to post pics for sale with dirt. It makes it seem like you are hiding something. Just a quick bucket of dishwashing soap with hot water and a scrubbie brush and you'll be done in 10 mins.

Sorry.

Thanks.

 

okay i'll go clean it now

 

Thanks. Sorry to put you out. Just want to help you sell it.

 

i should thank you

 

round 2

 

That looks like the Twin Peaks trail. amirite?

 

Ahhh much better, that's great! Now I just need the year, I forgot. That way I can post the bikepedia with it because it has all the specs. I'll start the thread tomorrow and put it in my sig. I'm really tired, been up since 230am and not thinking clear. I'll post you link.

 

its a 98, same year as my truck and thanks siu i appreciate all the help

 

its been a busy month for you folks.

 

My mom thinks I'm never going to get married because I want to put a bed rack on my truck. Apparently that's the worlds biggest anti-chick magnet.

 

WTF?
