    Would be sick to be able to mount something like this on the side of my cap. I'm way to short to get a bike on top of my truck. Being 115lbs and 5'5 has its disadvantages lol

    Cameras. What do you shoot shit with?

    I have a photography business if you have any questions. For traveling I use my Sony a6300 with a 18-70mm lens. Love it. Small, compact, and takes great pictures. Just know that you will need extra batteries for sure. For my business I use a Nikon D750 and have a bunch of lenses for that. Its...

    camper shell vs RTT/ bedrack system

    I have had a steel roof height rack for about 6 months and then switched to a cap. Definitely prefer my cap. -I like that my stuff is locked up (had a few things stolen out of my box on a few of my road trips) -I have slept several times in my cap and it works awesome.

    Ya, having that extra travel and cushion is a lot easier on the body. excited for this bike though. I demoed one in Squamish, BC Canada in the summer and it was way more playful than my Remedy and climbed a lot better too.

    True but if they are an American coming to Canada the exchange works in your favour. Now me being from Alberta and coming to BC is always fun. I feel like hoarding gas in my canopy right before crossing the AB/BC border.

    Was probably going to do the OV tune first. Then when I up my tire size maybe look at re Gearing. Was just interested to see peoples opinions as I haven't seen a ton of posts about when its a good time to do this. I have heard great results though.

    Not that it really matters but I am intrigued by the ranking levels here on T3G. Been on here for a few months now and just noticed them. Snooped around a bit but didn't find anything explaining them. So what's the hierarchy? What are the levels and how do they change?
