quotes Great review! I have had a KS dropper post for the past year. No problems with it at all. The cable does do what Mike says and slacken when the seat is dropped, but no issues with that either it stays tight to the frame. I did take the advice of PB and put an old DH inner tube sleeve on the post to keep the grit and mud off of the post/ seal which may be contributing to its flawless performance. While I like the bar clamp idea steel on aluminum I do not like. $300???? WTF

quotes I have had the 125mm for over a year and no issues with it. That's over a year of riding through crap. I zip tied a section of 2.125" innertube from the head down to the lower bushing to protect the post from all the crap we've ridden in for the past year in Ontario. It's been very muddy.

quotes Did anyone notice in the photo of the C-Guide that the chain has two removable links? I wonder how many more there are on that chain. Why not just replace all of the outers with SRAM powerlinks? Chain removal would be so much easier, no more searching for that elusive powerlink or wipperman whatever they call it.

quotes Whatever you decide to do with your steerer tube length, one small piece of advice. Measure twice cut once. Friends don't let friends, their steerer tubes too short.

quotes You're right, keep the torso slightly over heated and the extremities stay comfortable.

quotes I winter ride in Ontario, all winter. Zero through -20c. No problem. The comment in the article that I find intriguing is about flats. I have ridden all the shoes that the author mentions. Below -2 I found them all to be useless. However, my flats shoes on the other hand no problem through -20c. My flats shoes [5.10 Karvers] are the best 'winter' shoe I've ever had. Wool socks and 5.10 Karvers -20c here I come. And no cleats to clog up with snow and ice. Get your wool base layer at MEC you can wash and dry it [in the dryer, delicate cycle] and it comes out the same size. Keep your core warm and the extremities will follow. Good article and some great advice.

quotes That video was well put together, nice sound track and great trails. Why did the guy loosen his stem when he could've removed the wheel instead. Great trails.
