Ah well, it's like guys that swear they don't need to enhance the power of their bike or modify the stock suspension... If you've never tried it, you really don't know.

Sport Rider recommended 2mm in the front. I set up my suspension to exactly what they said

Hey, what does he charge? I'm thinking of doing the same thing when I get to the gap if I get there early enough before I have to meet Trip.

What? A dyno tune is about $200 on a good day! Wow! Oh yea, I'm going for sure! I'm leaving at about 8-9 am and google expects it to take about 7 hours, I'm thinking about 6 or less. That puts me in the area about 2 or 3 pm and Trip want s to meet up at 5 or so. It's doable. Hey is Wheelers on 129?

It is phenominal pricing, but depending on how busy he is, it might take you hours to get your bike done. Wheeler always works on my bike (i prefer that rather than one of his sometimes odd techs) and so long as he isnt slammed, it never takes too long, but my first trip I had to give up it took so long!
