    Yup, just a single 32T sprocket in the front. Don't need the other ones.

    How do you like those hydro brakes? I still have mechanical brakes and they are quick to throw you off.
    That GoPro is sweet... thing is, my wife completely surprised me with the camera. My birthday present was supposed to be the new tires and MRP guide for the bike. Then on my birthday she hands me a present and it's the Kodak. She was mainly focused on skiing since they advertised the boot strap for it. For the bike, i just made a mount for the handlebars out of a reflector mount. The mount itself worked great... but you really need the camera on your body for mtb.... the bike gets whipped around a lot more.

    Love the [good] hydro brakes. Bike came with Juicy 3's and they're horrible. Endless power, no cable stretch, no adjustments, only need one finger on each lever for "lock up" power. Mechanicals are good too... but you're only moving 1 pad instead of 2, so they need a bit more work to keep adjusted properly. But that's not a big deal if you're running a good set like BB5s or BB7s, im always adjusting my friends brakes before our rides and those are easy to do (as long as they were originally set up correctly)

    Trail looks awesome!

    I wish some of my videos came out better... we have some great singletrack with obstacles that I hit.

    Bro, I'm not doggin' your camera or vid, just so you know. I think it was awesome your wife suprised you with it and I would use it as well. Maybe if you can get some type of chest strap, it would come out better. Even mounting it on the front frame instead of the bars would greatly improve the vid, just my $0.02.

    That was shot with the GoPro on the helmet. Search "Oleta MTB" on youtube and you can check out all the trails offered there, there are like 5 or 6 different ones. Also search "Markhem Park MTB (Fort Lauderdale, Fl), they have some cool as trails also. I really like the wooden bridges and the DNA bridge is badass!-----> DNA Bridge

    Yeah i hear ya man. lol just saying i would've chosen a different camera for mtb... but not complaining, my wife is pretty awesome

    I wear a camelback so im going to try and make a mount for that. That was the first thing I tried, but because of body position the camera was aimed down. So i need to mount it higher up on the shoulder strap.

    Nice! I wish I could take my bike with me but, I'm stopping in too many different towns on the way up and back. I'm afraid I will loose it somewhere along the way, LOL....Maybe if I can make it fit inside the XK, I might be able to bring it. It all depends on the GF and what she brings along for the ride.
