Fork: "Really good race/shuttle fork because
it's light and has seven inches of plush Marzocchi travel. Not quite
burley enough for big jump or drop abuse, but just right for racing. I
set it up with the stiffest kit available and I only weigh 160lbs."
Wheels: "These wheels are heavy and hard
to mount tires onto."
Tires: "18-20 psi. Pretty good all
around performance. I should have run a mud tire in the rear at some
of these winter races."
Shifting: "Shifts really well. The
mechanic in me likes rapidfire but I actually prefer grip shift for racing."
Cranks/Botom Bracket: "Isis Stuff is cool!"
Pedals: "First generation Red DX Pedals are
super durable. I went back to clipless this winter after three or four
years on flats, and I'm riding faster on clipless. When these wear
out I will be sad."
