Thanks for the offer tobiebiker but the only reason I'm selling the bike is because of a back injury so at the moment I'm not interested in any trades (if I was capable of riding at the moment I might be interested)! Thanks again for the offer and interest, take it easy man!

As usual sick picture, as mcscaby mentioned you'll be getting PODS soon if you were able to get better/higher quality photos! Keep it up and please keep posted new photos!

Thanks Sam, much appreciated!

Very nice, looking forward to it!

No worries Dazem, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions regarding your bike! Its probably one of the sickest hard-tails I've seen before, nice work!

Its facinating to me, both fork technology and shock technology (especially the newer air-shocks), excellent stuff!

Not only does it look huge but as we all know, when you see these things in person their always even bigger! Great job man, that is sick!

Hey Dazem - Just wanted to give some props for the new rig, very sick man! At least I assume its a new rig and not just your old frame polished up with new decals (either way its sick)! It would be cool to see a shot of the drive side (to check out your drivetrain)? Well take it easy man!

Hey ctd07,
Nice new gear mate, too bad about the issues your having however! It really sucks when your excited about new gear and then when it arrives its either the wrong part, broken, not built right, etc... Keep us posted on your progress with this wheel set, I'm curious what you think of them once their up and running!

Its pretty amazing, I just finished watching a very old snowboarding movie called "Critical Condition" and Shawn kills it in that video! To think all these years later he is still at the top of sports (DH in this case) is pretty amazing!

I'm no expert when it comes to TIG welding but to be honest those welds look excellent to me, it might be the angle of the shot thats making it look sub-par?

Great shots of the event, nice work! This was pretty much the first slopestyle event I had ever watched (in person) and it was sick! As corny as it sounds I was pretty excited to see all those pros hanging out and riding our home mountain, what a great time!

ctd07' - Did you clean and install the new fork seals yourself or did you send them out? I've never worked on those forks before, if you did the work yourself was it pretty straight forward (or was it a real pain in the ass)? In any case man they look great and those Enduro seals are much better than stock!

Awesome pic man, that is pretty huge (too bad about the bluriness) but still a great picture!

Hope you had a good holiday Dan, it certainly looks like you had a blast!

You know your a serious dirt jumper when you have a full-size Case back-hoe, badass guys!

I'm not a huge fan of Norco but I've ridden and like their bikes, unfortunately your not the only one with a broken rear-triangle. It didn't happen when I was riding it but an 08 Shore two broke in a similar spot (except it was the chain-stay not the seat-stay) late last year (like you I was very bummed)! Fortunately in the case of the Shore Two Norco agreed it was poor engineering on that part of the frame and sent out (free of charge) a new seat-stay. The new seat-stay was very similar but they added a small gusset which so far has made all the difference! Granted you posted this picture a while ago but have you had any luck getting warranty coverage (either for this break or any of the failed welds on the front triangle)? I'm very curious to know because from what I've read (and from talking with other Norco owners) its a huge pain in the butt to get coverage? Not sure if its a problem because we're in the States or more because the shop where bike was purchased doesn't have good communication/relationship with Norco? In any case good luck man!

Even though you posted this a while ago Dazem I just viewed it for the first time, that landing/berm is amazing! I can't image how much fun it would be to ride, especially since you can launch off the berm in different places (either up high to the left or a big lower to the right depending on how much you want to launch and given your speed after landing)! This looks like the trail right before the area you took your most recent picture at (the headlight shot)! Keep up the great work man!

Those are some great suggestions eschelar that I will use in my own photography, with that said great work Dazem! Not only is the trail looking sick but that shot is very cool, thanks for continuing to post great shots!

I feel like an idiot for commenting on every new picture you post but as everyone else has said, the work you do is simply amazing (almost too nice to ride), lol! Can't wait to see some pics of you guys ripping this place up! Keep up the great work and please keep posting pics!

Just tried those brakes for the first time last weekend and they were very impressive! I think they were even more powerful than my Codes and had better modulation! In anycase they are great for the Flatline!

Does Rocky Mountain face the bottom bracket shell like that (along with the ISCG tabs) or did you do that work yourself? I only ask because I've rarly seen a bottom bracket shell face that clean before!

Great shot, I've always been curious how the linkage actually works on the Flatline (thanks for posting)!

Well I'm very sorry to hear that, I know how it is though (I've gone through three frames since the middle of last season)! Thankfully I'm very impressed with my current setup (thank GOD because if I wasn't I'd be screwed since I simply don't have the funds to build up another bike)! I truly think you'll be able to get the bike where you want it, as you mentioned this frame (Wildcard) has been praised for a very long time by many riders! If you can please keep us posted on your progress with the bike (new wheelset, pedals, stem, saddle, etc..) to see if those parts help get the bike where you want it!

After seeing this picture I really wanted to weigh my own bike to see how heavy it is since I truly have no idea? Ideally I'd like to be at or below 40lbs (18.15kg). Well take it easy man and good luck!

Even though its a bit heavier I'd still be very happy with that frame, its pretty sick man! The headtube looks very stout, I like how its very low profile!

That is up there with one of the coolest looking bikes I've seen in a long time, very nice build man! With that said its also got some amazing components, nice work on that build for sure!

That is awesome man, I could never be an RA (although the benefits are nice) because I'd probably smack idiots all the time, lol! On a more serious note I recently got a chance to take a run on a Flatline up at Highland (Rocky Mountain was up there a couple weeks ago) and I was very impressed with the bike! I didn't know what to expect from the bike but to be honest it handled kinda like my Demo (the faster and harder you ride it the smoother things tend to get)! It also railed berms like it was on rails (and this bike was not set up very good for my size and weight)!

Very cool, thanks for taking the time mkitsis2 to explain that to me! Fortunately I did realize there were many shots from Highland but it wasn't until getting your message above (and re watching the movie again) that I realized just how much it was in the movie (its pretty amazing that this park is pretty much in our back yard)! Many people need to drive for hours to ride something like Highland! Well thanks very much once again, its greatly appreciated!

Thanks very much ctbike888, I appreciate the comment! By the way is the Intense SS on your profile your bike, if so your a lucky bastard (that frame is sick)!

Jesus thats huge, if anyone has the video footage of this please post the linky!

Thats awesome man, lol! I moved out of the dorms after my first semester because I found a decent apartment but in general the dorms weren't bad!

Holyshit, your serious about it being in NWD9? I own both the regular and Blu-Ray versions of the movie and had no idea at all that pipe was at Highland (I'm blown away man)! Its the section right before Cam McCauls river gap section if I'm not mistaken? I assume this is an early shot of the pipe because in the movie the deck area of the pipe is more open (like they must have cut down some trees after this picture was taken). Man I hope your not just messing with me because I'll feel like an idiot!

I'm probably wrong but that room reminds me of my old dorm, any chance your in college and that is where this picture was taken (heck I ever had the same exact door)!

I feel like an idiot for asking because I've ridden Highland many times but where the heck is this on the mountain (of course this might just be a modified photo but I can't tell), lol! In anycase it looks like a lot of fun to ride!

That is some great advice, thank you very much for taking the time to post that information for me! As you know these pads are a big investment so I'm very glad to hear that 661 stood behind their product! By the way, where exactly on the inside did the D30 material split? I assume it happened on the section where you can actually see the D30 material (there is a circular opening on the pad covering that exposes the orange D30 material)? Once again, can't thank you enough!

Crap, I just posted in the Bighit/Demo thread asking you what model and year your new forks were (well at least I guessed correctly), lol! Those forks are sick and I'd happily run them over my current Boxxer Teams anytime!

Given that there are people walking around this must be a wax statue or something like that (otherwise these people would be freaking out at seeing it)! With that said this is very creepy and looks quite real!

Indeed, very stylish (not to mention huge)!

Granted I've said it many times now but you guys do some amazing work, it can be tough to get a committed group of riders together who are willing to put the shovel time in necessary for trails like yours (great work guys)!

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated! I must say the mountain is better than ever this year and its still pretty early! Within a few more weeks the trails will really be perfect, I really think you'll love it man!
