Curious what you guys have on your list to get yourselves or are sending subliminal messages to your loved ones about this Christmas. Lets see em.


I'm trying to rally up an effort for a set of wheels for my 07 CR build. Red hubs/Silver rims. I think the black wheels are overly used these days, on Honda's anyway. I dig the older factory bike setup.

We were off at the condo for a ski trip the past couple days without any internet connection/wifi... Knowing this ahead of time I brought my new Rocky Mnt MC catalog along and found at least 25 things I want/need.

Reminded me of being a kid and obsessing over the Sears catalog prior to xmas..oh and I think the jc penny catalog was pretty sweet back then too! Laughing

Anyways here are a couple things I really do need - Matrix bike stand and a goggle carrying case.

I had a pair of last gen tech7 before these. My new ones are a lot slimmer overall and the toe area is not nearly as tall. The buckles are way better. Felt almost like well worn ones on the first ride, not overly stiff at all.

Only problem I had was they are a little slick on the inside where you grip the bike. I seat bounced a little table out of a corner and almost was thrown over the bars because they slid up the frame. I barely caught the side of the seat with my ankles. I'm hoping after a little more wear they will scuff up and grip a little better.

Nice bike, but I think the red hub and gold rims would look great on your bike.

Thanks for the info. I'm leaning towards Tech 7s because they're a good value. Otherwise I'm getting SG12s or Tech 10s.

That's not my bike. Just an internet picture of the hubs I'd like if someone should decide to call around and get some for me from Dubya, RAD, Talon, or Kite. I'd handle the spokes, nipples, and assembly myself. Whistling

Got a new pair of pants, jersey, gloves, knee guards, and a new helmet. My gear is quite old and was long due for replacement. Went super cheap and got the Elements 2015 set. Looks like its going to be perfect for me and the riding I do.

Got a Transworld subscription too.

I firmly beleive Santa is real and travels the world on a flying sleigh pulled by reindeer. I may not always get what I wish for, but you can't tell me that the brandy I leave out for him on christmas eve drinks itself?!

I'm ordering a welder today. This looks rather simple to create. That might go on my list of stuff to make. I'm welding a bike stand right now.

Hahaha, the thought of my wife browsing Vital makes me laugh, but I'll play.

I already got one of them (a new GoPro Hero 4), and my second one is this Thursday night (concert and fancy night out).

However, if Santa's feeling extra generous, I need the following:

Haha. My wife might be astonished at what she found if she read my posting on here.

I really like Fox boots.
