you know how many times i've heard "it's going to be a while. we just got in 500 of these bike parts and they need them right away" if you can pass my parts off as a brake rotor we're in business

thanks jeff. some of those anodized made in USA bike parts get pico/bhse parts delayed because they're considered higher priority.

http://www.terrain360.com/index.html full list. i know the "Google Bike" catches bikers in the shots of a number of these trails, so that should be a clue.

for the trails around here, a hardtail would be fine i'm sure. but i think i have learned by now, don't buy without trying. i probably needed 2 or 3 more demos and rentals, but i found what I thought was a fair deal on something I knew I liked so i went for it

high quality balanced DAC (small-ish, lightweight a plus)
There's no time to do it. Even if i send off an email and BHSEs started being made in China and were finished in 2 weeks, there would still be no time. There are other ways though, like MSB offers its DAC modules or complete DAC boards to OEMs to put in their own boxes. The price would likely be way out of line with my current products, however. The other way is to try to create a 'real' company and start hiring engineers. But creating a payroll that is currently several times my profits is probably what sinks most of these companies.

high quality balanced DAC (small-ish, lightweight a plus)
that works if i have a laptop with me. it's easier to use a tablet, and the touchscreen interfaces are intuitive. at RMAF when I've used a laptop you'd be surprised how many people will come up to the computer and say "What do i do.." unfortunately, i have an iPad, and while you can use that with some DACs the possibility of using it with external media at the same time is very unlikely. an Android tablet, i bet it can be done.

bought this. that's actually the one in Austin, I found the same one from a shop in New England for $400 less, thanks to the cold weather most likely.

http://www.terrain360.com/trails/virginia/riprap_1/riprap.html this is pretty cool...the official trails in my county have "google street view". ive looked at a few of these trails and there's really nothing that would need much suspension...its just dirt paths then i saw this: http://www.terrain360.com/trails/virginia/humpback_rocks_1/tour.html?func=jumptopano&markercount=2 (you have to click to around 90% the end of the trail) but mostly just dirt paths. definitely what i'm interested in doing as there's some elevation gains

medium is the smallest for that model. they say its for 5'5" and up and i'm also 5'8" so i just realized that the rental I had that I thought was too big..i'm pretty sure it had a Fox fork which would have been 120mm of travel the one i demo'd last weekend that felt more comfortable had a Rock Shox 100mm fork. could that have been the difference?
