Hopey
« on: May 03, 2003, 03:36:25 am »
Hi All..... I've been a Pro-Flex head since I bought an 855 back in 95. I still have it, and a 4500c.



Anyway, I took some time off from biking after a couple of bad back-to-back injuries last summer (broken ribs followed two weeks later by broken collar bone).



My local doctor buddies started complaining that business was off, so I figured I'd start riding again.



Anyway, I just put in an order for a Hopey steering damper for my 4500c. (Post-crash confidence booster.) Has anyone tried putting this on the carbon frame? Looks like there could be some fitting issues due to the frame - at least with the standard or drop mount damper models.

Dennis - I'll give the Blue Crush my vote for the world's coolest looking mountain bike - without the slightest hesitation.  Definitely bike magazine centerfold material...
