Now that the Snow has arrived, Now is a good time to be thinking about the up coming Spring. It's never To early to be thinking about Next season. During the winter months and your riding your bike it's a good time to be getting some of the big service work done, Like fork rebuilds swing arm bearings etc, Or may be thinking of the new Bike you want to build.
  On the Niner front, Some Big news.. Niner is now offering 20 models of bikes as complete builds with their Stars series. this will make easier and less confusing. and get you riding a Niner faster..
 With Rocky Mountain for 2013 they have gone to a full lineup across the board with 29ers they have some great offerings with 650B wheels. And their downhill freeride is hands down the best looking line up this season.
  Marin  has a steller line up for 2013 with great value across the line with some great pricing. Be looking to see more of Marins product in the news.
  Also making big noise is Banshee. they have revamped their lineup with their KS link.. and offering bikes in 650B 26in And 29.

It has been a little bit since I have entered in the blog, truth to the matter we have been very busy. With the new trails going in at rambling' vewe  groups rides and the store the plate has been running full.
  A quick few things. August is Rocky Mountain Month at Chainline, If you looking for some good deals. Rocky still has a good selection of bikes in stock ready to go, so If interested stop in for pricing.
  Stay tuned,we got some big things in the works. More to come.
    And Dont forget Cross season Is just around the corner !

So yesterday we received our first Fox Doss dropper post.What a piece of work, you can tell they spent some time on this. And I  think they nailed it. this one has a 4 in drop. We installed this on a Niner RIP 9 and went for a ride.
  The action of the lever is spot on. it does take a few minutes to adj to the third leaver but it becomes second nature. The post does not rock from side to side like a lot of the others on the market.
  As always the fit and finnish from Fox is awesome and was super easy to set up, So if your looking for a dropper post look no further. they are a little more money than others in the market but worth every dime.

So a few months ago I got introduced to Strava, Strava is a free app that you can download to your android base smart phone or Iphone.At first I thought it was just going to be a a faze, But after a few rides I found myself wanting  to ride more. and with riding more I started seeing better results in my riding. I'm not much of a climber, and this has been my biggest weakness as a cyclist, But after riding more and tracking my riding with Strava I have noticed a huge improvement in my climbing ability.which filters to other aspects of riding. I'm a believer.. So take a few minutes download the app and go for a ride. I think you will find it a fun way to track your riding. thanks for taking the time to read this drivel.
   Cheers

Some of coolest bikes roll through our door here at Chainline, and this is one of them. If you are looking for a JR cross bike for you JR cross racer or a great JR road bike this is it.

So a while back I was asked to walk a piece of property for Rambling' vewe farm  a local land trust, with the thought of laying out a network of singletrack to also help showcase some of it's existing trail network. After a few meetings and a few hikes the first trail was given the green light. The next task was to build. After 62.7 hours and .8tenths of a mile trail #1 was completed. The new trail has been getting nothing but rave reviews, So go out and explore, you never know what you might find, Maybe the start of Trail # 2. Cheers !

Ahh yes, things that go around in circles. With all of the carbon goodness that is out there in the market place now it is refreshing to see some down right sexy aluminum Cranks.This pair of  ethirteen by the hive is a great example of what a crank should be like. light, stiff,and with chainrings that are not flex'y and can take a poor shift or two.

Wow, Looks like it has been a while since I have had anything to write about errrrr. Well there is a few changes that have been going on. As you will notice here in short time. So pay close attention, hope you like whats coming down the pike, I know i'm very excited. More to come.... hehehehehe. Cheers..
