Hi all, looking at buying some dual crown forks for my giant glory. I'm fairly new to dh, but my forks need bushings and possibly a new stanchion so it's probably worth...

If you want to spend the money 380CR Ti or if you want to do it on the cheap but with a 2013 888 CR with avalanche up grade you can get the CR of Jensens for like. 500-600 you can send them direct to Avalanche & get the upgrade cartiridge for like 400-500 with shipping to you & they are a sweet setup,you can get the fork built for you to your specs, or Another top I always check Qbike.com type in what product you want. & it will direct to the best price available on the net,it basically the 888 Ti but at a cheaper price

Get some second hand boxxers, possibly cheaper than fixing your old stuff. Have a look on rotorburn.com

Benjamin Hodson they seem pretty good.... although i've heard that they take a fair bit of work to maintain?
Can one recommend a bike shop in FTL that does not close so early. My spokes are all jacked up.
Adam G. replied:
I, as a customer, who spends prob $100 per week on Amazon and other sites for bike stuff alone, cannot make it to the shop during the day. I also have weekends free when many bike shops have odd hrs for some reason (closing in the middle of the day and not open on Sunday). That being said, my money goes to shops that can accommodate me and my completely normal/typical schedule. Thus I cannot do business with anyone but online or those chains all you small biz owners hate...like Performance and Big Wheel (Taft). Josh, your shop specifically is just to far for me regardless....but these are the issues at hand and why money isn't going to the small biz's.
Do any of you have a recommendation for a bike shop in Boca Raton?

Boca Bike Shope Mike Blu is a stand up guy.

Boca Bike Shop on Easy Palmetto Park Road. More than a few of my Boca friends use them and suggest them. While ME? I needed their help almost 15 years ago on a long ride. Probably different staff now, but they hooked me up with an emergency adjustment on a Sunday when shops are usually closed.

If your looking to save some money go to performance bike in boca... Service is good and pricing is where it should be at every LBS. http://www.performancebike.com not to mention they open 7 days a week.
