BEANBAG

I want to officially say Thank You

I am amazed. I feel like I am learning to mountain bike all over. I am able to approach real tough trails differently. Making it so much more fun and challenging. I am glad I took your advice AGAIN. So thank you my friend.

Happy riding guys.

So-Weeet looking rig! Ride it in good health.

Last weekend I snapped some pics of a few hard core features right off my local trail that your new bike would be good for.

It is Beanbag. The big advantage I have found is that my hands aren't locked in so badly. Its hard to describe, but the bar ends kept me from being able to move around (change the angle of my forearms to the grips). With the bar ends my forearms were more or less set perpendicular to the grips. Now I have much more freedom and that alone has made a huge improvement.
 
When I think of downhill I think of stuff like this. Am I off?

Hey, stay safe. You need to keep providing knives man.
