Those straight stiff disc forks shoot every imperfection right up to the bars. I have the same issue with my Big Dummy even running 2.0" Marathon XRs.<BR/><BR/>There is a reason why Schwalbe Big Apples are so popular on the Big Dummy.Vikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07214932277372519931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4448197112016744604.post-46365527544683981692008-09-07T17:56:00.000-05:002008-09-07T17:56:00.000-05:00Jason.

I have the same brakes on my tourer, but the upgraded pads make a massive difference.<BR/><BR/>(Not that I'm trying to stop you from buying a new bike, of course...) :-)Jason T.

I already told my LBS to count me in for one. I'm hoping to utilize it to do some similar adventures to what you've written about in your blog over the past few months.Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16533735798215882873noreply@blogger.com
