All the sweet bikes and parts. Mmm … parts.
Hi Lee, my name is Daniel and I’m from Colombia.
Could you give me your advice about a doubt I have??
I’m gonna buy a pair of cranks, and I practice 4X and have a hardtail, what size of cranks are best for me? 170mm or 175mm? I’m 5’8″.
Thank you and hope you write back soon.

Lee,
I have a question. What width handle bars do you prefer. I am riding a hard tail with 24″ wheels. I just put a set of FSA DH400 bars on and they are crazy wide 28″ from the factory. What would you recommend for dirt jumping and urban riding?
Thanks

Hi Lee,
Just wondering what your advice is on frame sizing for dirt jump bikes? Depending upon the manufacturer there are either minimal choices or lots of choice. Also due to the nature of the beast, not too many shops will let you take one for a ride to see how they fly in the air. I have seen somewhere that 2 inches smaller than your normal sizing is about right. Any thoughts on bike sizing?

Lee,
I was wondering what you thought the best dual slalom bike set up would be for courses like Sea Otter, Mount Snow, Snowshoe and other courses that have rough terrain and lots of flat turns.
