its sexy man lol n how u keep it so clean lol

duir replied... on 30 January 2009

It only appears clean as I had just hosed it down! The white Coves come up nicely. If you saw it today after 3 days at Innerliethen you would not think it clean.

duir replied... on 15 January 2009

The Vivid is really good after I got the right ti spring and had it re-shimmed by TFTuned. Now I have got it dialled in it feels incredible. I love the high and low speed rebound.

thats so nice. is it new?.
I see you are sticking with cove too. Good stuff.
If you ever come up to aberdeen give us a shout we can hit pitfichie.

duir replied... on 15 January 2009

Cheers. I lived in Aberdeen for 3 years before moving here so Pitfichie was my regular haunt. These days it's Innerleithen instead.

As for sticking with Cove well......is there any other?

nice build, not sure i'd want to be clipped in tho

duir replied... on 4 January 2009

Well I am often the only downhiller at Innerliethen that's clipped! Been riding for +17 years and clipped in for most of that so too late to change now. Tried the 5:10/Easton pedals combo which is good but just felt too insecure. Oh well if it's good enough for Peaty.......

sweet i personally would make it more colourful but nice

duir replied... on 3 January 2009

Colour isn't important to me, the ride is. However when you see my Shockerin the flesh it is colourful as it has red/blue anodised parts and silver bits too.

wow very nice, is that a ti spring on the vivid?

duir replied... on 3 January 2009

Yep. It's a Nuke Proof ti spring. Originally I had an obtanium, ridiculously light spring on but the adapter made a horrible crunching noise. Still awaiting obtaniums diagnosis as I don't think they believed me!

It is fairly light at around 40lbs. I could get it a fair bit lighter but then things would start to break!
