QuoteActually, excuse me, that's a Trek Session, not Liquid.  Liquids are less freeride oriented.

That bike has 7 inches of travel...a FR/DH standard.  There's bikes with 9 or more inches of travel.  B)
mine has 0 in of travel. :lol:
lol
that's the way i like it.
Do you know if bike seats will tilt forward or backward?

Yep...most of them have that ability...should be as easy as loosening a nut or two and just rotating it.  Though I have no idea if yours can do that.  Just check her out.

I doubt it would make much of a difference.  But it's worth a try...just fiddle with it and see what feels/works best.

QuoteYou're saying you expect a luxury cruiser to be fast?  Mid-8's is nothing to sneeze at...it's plenty quick, you know.
That would be wondful if the Town Car got mid 8s...I've never seen a time under 10 seconds.

ifcar?  He said it, later on I corrected him, and then ran to Google to find something definitive.  Fastest I saw was 10.5 seconds.   :blink:

Mids 8s is what I've seen from everyone but the slowest-time consumer mags, and they've gotten mid 9s.
