  1. That should work well on some TN trails, Zach. Oh... Zach, Justin... why no drivetrain side pics? If you're going to have bike porn, don't have black bars over the sexy part. Though, the black ENVE bar is kinda hot. **BRENT**
  2. Did Verizon start doing voice over LTE yet? That version is nuts! Dude listed off the bands for me. Crazy. I went in to check something on my phone and talked shop a bit. **BRENT**
  3. FYI: T-Mobile sells the 5s for 99/199/299 down payment with their payment plan, and it is the global unlocked version. Same price as everyone else full price. **BRENT**
  4. Rape isn't funny, but seriously guys, it's easy enough to change your last name these days. **BRENT**
  5. Or on your custom Gunnar/Calfee/Kirk/Vanilla/Eriksen... **BRENT**
  6. Al, when are you buying Jeff's DeSalvo? **BRENT**
  7. Justin, when do you get your Cat 5 license? **BRENT**
  8. http://www.bikerumor.com/2011/09/15/fair-wheel-bikes-part-1-sub-11-pound-40000-road-bike/ I knew I'd seen those chainrings somewhere... it was this sub-11lb size 57/58 Crumpton with DADi2. I kinda like them, personally. **BRENT**
  9. 22 mph. Not bad. **BRENT**
  10. You're dead to me, DP, but happy b-day anyways, old man.! **BRENT**
  11. @Jeff, it was just hanging on the back of someone's car, it looked like it'd fit, so I borrowed it. **BRENT**
  12. At the lake where my mom is camping. Stole 30 minutes or so and went riding around. Ran out of road, so I took a pic. Not pictured, the car I drove to the bridge to take the bike off the rack Justin, hit 33 or 34 coming off this bridge. Still had some room left with my compact/12-25 setup. You'll be fine. **BRENT**
  13. The Praxis rings are awesome... Just linked the KCNC because it's something else, and figured Jeff would hate them. The Praxis ones would probably be a nice upgrade over the stock ones, maybe save some weight, and definitely look a lot better on the all-black bike. Order some now and you'll be able to sell the FSA ones as new **BRENT**
  14. http://fairwheelbikes.com/kcnc-k3-cobweb-road-chainrings-p-4364.html Maybe a black outer and red inner? **BRENT**
  15. Hollowgram SiSL eventually. Or maybe matching Ultegra crank. Or crazy esoteric crank to be named later. And Enve tubular race wheels. And upgraded cockpit. Upgrade frame to Calfee Manta. Upgrade to prototype DA Di2 1x14 with automatic shifting based on cadence, grade, power output. Add Huffy stickers. **BRENT**
  16. I have a bike to ride, it's that pesky 500+ miles each way that gets me. **BRENT**
  17. I did 12 miles last Sunday, Dan. I felt good on the last half (even if I've bee in pain the past week). I figure I could do 20, so they'd probably do 40. **BRENT**
  18. I was thinking the same thing, Nate. I think they'd want to do double the distance I would be OK with, though, but still. **BRENT**
  19. Justin Bieber to play Robin in shitty movie. **BRENT**
  20. I knew there was some company that I read about with a new bike that Dan should buy. That's pretty sweet. When you picking it up, Dan? 105 or Rival build? **BRENT**
  21. Time to get a new bike, Dan. Or maybe NOS XTR BB. **BRENT**
  22. Which one are you? **BRENT**
  23. Working on luring... **BRENT**
  24. Cankin, are you talking about having the kids have their own phone and limiting, or are you talking about handing them your phone to use say, in the car or at the doctor's office? I am talking about the latter, handing your personal phone off to someone while blocking access yo your entire digital world. If there is a way to do that now, I'm not aware. Your option seems to be more of setting up a phone for a kid for their use, and setting restrictions and locking that with a pass code, perhaps. **BRENT**
  25. I hope their next models are 5 inches or more, JUST to piss off Dan. As far as yesterday's announcement, I think high end phones of the past year or so are finally getting to where it isn't as big of a deal to upgrade due to specs/speed/etc. I still despise the size of the screen of the iPhone 5(x), but it does look great, and I love the build quality, but like Justin said, most of the mobile use these days (for most people) isn't making calls, it's messaging, internet, facebook, facetime, camera, twitter, instagram, etc. With iOS7, however, a big frustration of mine with the iPhone has been address (time stamps on messages), and it just took 6 years. The fingerprint scanner thing, though, is REALLY nice, in my opinion, depending on what they do with it. Like Dinny, I hate putting in a passcode (or in my case, a complicated swiped pattern) all the time, but there's no way I'm going to leave my phone unlocked. Ever. Now, think about this: you're a parent and you want to let your kid play on the phone, but don't want them to have access to email, texts, sms, facebook, credit cards, ebay, paypal, d-_-b, etc. Now, set them up with their own fingerprint and you have a subset of things allowed. Their own ID for games, own browser, own FB account, etc. Similar for the spouse... and then you could have a "Guest" account, which could be locked out a little more. Internet (guest account with no history), phone access, and maybe a little more. This is totally doable, and if they do it, it could be a very nice feature. Oh, and the camera looks great. I actually know someone thinking about going to the crazy Nokia/Lumia with the 41mp camera, but I want to get his thoughts about this cam instead (to spare him from WP). As someone who doesn't like the iPhone, this one actually interested me more than previous ones on the hardware front, even though there are only a couple things that really jumped out at me. **BRENT**
