thanks for the input brother. I'm not sure how much air is in it. I felt like I could only get it up to 70 psi. You're going to laugh, but I took it to a gas station to fill it. Maybe that's why I couldn't get any more air it.

I think this is going to be the one bike that stays pretty stock. Wheels might change eventually if I see a deal of the new black Ksyriums, but other than that, it's gonna be left alone. Wait till I finish the paint on the Obsession! It's going to be awesome!

Hey man, the package was insured for the price I paid, so I'd think DHL would cough up the money and Fetish could just ship me another bike out. My insurance company is doing a lot for me on this, I think it's becasue they really don't want to pay me and would rather have someone else pay...but whatever, I just want a bike.

the bike is doing great...a few improvements since youve last seen it, ive put a full carbon saddle on it, thats actually very comfy...the only problem this winter was i ripped my XO der, in half and the carbon cage broke... ill be racing alot this year im figuring at least 10 races, i also want to do mt snow and mike and i were thinking about some 24 hour races, maybe the one in jersey and the one in ct, so if youre down we should get some kind of team together...are you racing sport this year, or are you going to try and move up?

Hey man, what's going on. I might be starting a new project soon, but this time not for me! The little lady is looking for a bike, and I told her we should just build one instead. She was looking at the Cannondale Capo, so I was wondering it the Position..oh wait "Attack" (wtf is up with the name changes) is straight up track, or if it maybe has cable guides. I want to run horizontal drop-outs, so that's about the only option fetish has. That is unless they could do something custom, like a Penna or a Sac with horizontal drops. Hit me back when you get a chance.

In the back of the most recent Mountain Bike action they show pictures from an issue from 1996. One is of a guy on a GT LTS-1 and another on some Schwinn Homegrown both leaning towards each other on their front wheels. It mentioned the debate between those bikes was so intense that it took up a 10 page spread. The LTS won out. Apparently it was one of the most popular photos ever printed in the magazine.
