Hey IFO,



Good to hear from you.  A couple of my riding buddies will be up at Whistler next month.  I think it's during some sort of festival.  They don't ride Proflexs or K2s.  Their plan is to rent some DH worthy bike up there.  Maybe you can hookup with them.

My brother has been in whistler since august last year, he is going crazy at the moment trying to scrape the money together for a bike after seeing the trails.

Actually I kind of wish I was there as well.

Hi IFO,

Looking for the experts opinion here-what's my choice for a clear topcoat for a carbon K2?  Needs to be a non professional type of applicator if there's such a thing.......

Thanks,

ummm dont bother....

seriously if you wanna make yuor K2 carbon look all shiny just get some polish and go crazy buffing it up...

any C/C application you can apply will either scratch just as easy, or worse yet not apply very well/peel off in short order...

its more hassle then its worth in my opinion...

besides bikes are meant to be all scratched up...thats what their for...

you should see ym 03 BIGHIT experts "polished" colro now.. its SOOOO beat up... i love it... ;D

anyone who wants to hook up with me at Whistler have em send me a Email....i'll gladly link up..

as long as they wanna expereince the A-line express mind you.... [smiley=nod.gif]

Hey IFO, I'll have my buds email you.  They are very capable riders and are going to Whistler to experience the A-Line :o
