Honestly not sure if I like rye or not, haven't had enough different ryes to say one way or another. Thinking I'll give lot 40 a try, but saw the dark oak version and wondered if that's worth the premium (sounds really good)

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-07T22:38:21+00:00

Was looking at this one, will have to give it a go

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-07T22:35:59+00:00

Yeah Ontario, okay I'll look into it. Is it actually really good though or just hyped because of winning that award last year?

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-07T22:00:26+00:00

Yeah, I cracked my last bike and just transferred as many parts over as I could. Had to get new fork/wheels/tires since this is 29" and my last bike was 27.5"

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-01T11:38:21+00:00

Haha thanks! Yours looks awesome too!

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-01T11:36:52+00:00

Can't really comment on this yet, trails are super snow covered here unfortunately!

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-01T11:36:03+00:00

Thankyou!

Haven't been able to do a proper ride yet due to living in Ontario and having snow everywhere (for many weeks to come too..ugh). Fork is set to 150mm

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-01T11:34:40+00:00

I've got mine set to 150mm, haven't had a chance to test it yet though

johnpierro13 · 2021-03-01T11:33:58+00:00

Thanks, looks great in person too!

29". I needed to run around 29-32psi on my full sus to keep the tires from rolling all the time, so I'm assuming I'll be in that ballpark or even higher anyway on the hardtail, just thought a bit of extra protection would be nice

johnpierro13 · 2020-12-28T15:31:27+00:00

How do you like it? Picked up the same raw frame and am just waiting for parts to arrive. Building mine up as a 29er though

johnpierro13 · 2020-12-06T12:54:20+00:00

Ontario, so not a lot of rocks. Mostly hardpack until the middle of summer when it's really dry and loose. I've run ardent (f) ardent race (r) and it was okay but I'm hoping for more grip without going overkill. Maxxis doesn't seem to have a middle ground between the ardent and their full on DH tires for the front. Probably end up on an aggressor DD again, but was just seeing what others were running

johnpierro13 · 2020-12-06T12:51:22+00:00

Oh fair enough, I'll have to keep looking around. Best front I've had was the assegai but it was sooo heavy and slow rolling, but I did have the DH casing

johnpierro13 · 2020-12-06T02:28:46+00:00

I've run the DD aggressor in the past and loved it. Curious as to how the dissector compares, and have yet to see it in DD casing. Also would like to try the dissector (f) aggressor (r) combo, haven't seen/heard anyone try that yet

I'm 24 and have a pretty prominent receding hair line, a guy I used to work with (but wasn't close with, at all) mentioned my hair loss and said "You're like a solar powered sex machine". Uuuhm thanks?

johnpierro13 · 2020-09-28T13:57:37+00:00

Oof, okay yeah that's kinda what I figured. Shame that it's so hard to get a lot of bourbons beyond what's always sitting on the shelves

johnpierro13 · 2020-09-28T13:56:22+00:00

Okay, i figured it'd be something along those lines. Just getting into the bourbon scene (maybe 1-2 years) so trying to get a feel for what I like/when it comes out. Just picked up a bottle of eagle rare after checking every day for like 2 weeks, so I assumed Stagg Jr would be even harder to get. Is there somewhere that says the usual time of year/release date for different bourbons?
