Curious, who do you guys use for parts for your cross bike(s)? I use pricepoint, jensonusa and a couple others for my MTB's but I'm having to start replacing parts for the cross bike. started using treefortbikes too. just curious

I look at the stuff online and work with my local shop to order what I need, they can generally get all the products but just need to know exactly what I want. It helps them understand better what cyclocross riders are buying and I can talk to them about my experiences with products and they can use this to help customers. I plan to write a fall newsletter for our local shop on cyclocross.

Can't argue with that, I don't even remember who won the B race and I was in it!

Has anyone here sent tires to FMB to have converted to tubs? I have some original green Michelin Muds that I'd consider sending out.

What Pretender said. Occasionally you'll find a very twisty course with a bunch of singletrack where the MTBers shine and I never get my heart rate up, but that's only once a season or so. There are several guys who I've never finished in front of in a crit but who I beat by 60 places or more in a CX race. It's an endurance sport.

There is no update because nothing is going to happen. Nobody at a high level of racing cares. This topic will keep coming up because some slow people think they need more powerful brakes, but it won't change anything.

check out this gizmo, you can model the speed difference with different gearing setups

with the 46, you can see about a 5mph loss in top end speed compared to the 53

heck, if you've had luck with V-brake and you like them; then get them. I think I have a bunch laying around if you want to buy a set. let me know. but if you have the cantis and are going low cost than that may be the cheaper way to go.
as for cranks, you could always get on fleabay and find something there.

I think you mean "open tubular" which is a fancy word for clincher. the champion clinchers are known for having trouble staying on the rim at lower tire pressures.

He told me that he wasn't planning on going because he didn't really feel up to it earlier this year so he didn't send in a petition. Then rode well at nats and wanted to go... It was too late at that point, and USAC wouldn't consider him.
Silly on his part for not at least sending a petition, just for fun. And stupid on USAC's part for being so strict about deadlines- Can we please just ...

My regular pit bike had a shifter go bad but I have a flat bar 'cross bike

I ran a 1x9 setup using new Tiagra this season and had old 105 on a previous road bike. I really like the shape of the Tiagra shifters and felt they shifted as well as or better than my 105 ever did.

There seems to have been a lot of that. I'm not sure it is fair to signal
out one person and not post links regarding the others.
