Ryan, I'll say it again... you fear what you don't understand :)
Can't wait til the slop goes away to ride. Getting antsy. Very antsy.

If I've learned anything in my 24 years, I've learned that its never good to wish winter away...it'll only stay longer!
I spent 3 hours wrenching on my new bike tonight, let the snow fly!

Those carbon flames are HOT!

Nice bike but a man with your frame should be on a 29er - Ishtar and Lieske...this applies to you thrice.

Waiting for a 6-8" DH travel 29er to hit the market, that one I will purchase.

No, the flames mean nothing. It certainly doesn't mean I'm fast.

Great look, Dan. You'll scare the hell out of the roadies at the Ironman this year. :crazy2:

Love the "pimped out" stuff you added. Not a fan of Lefties and C-Dales but yours looks way better than most.:etard:

Don't ever change your avatar Tom. I love 8-Ball in that movie! Nice choice.
Fits your personality too :)

Dammnit!

Ok now I need some more help with my pimped bike. I took a big chunk out of the decal/clearcoat (dammnit). My question is do I attempt to strip off the remaining decals and new clearcoat and hope to keep the factory clearcoat intact or do I just let it ride and strip the thing completely down next year and give it a custom paint job next winter. Either way I'm stripping it down next winter and repainting it.

Anyone know what I could use to get the new clearcoat off without damaging the factory paint job beneath? Will rubbing compound do the job?

Thanks in advance.
