The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Definitely better to have a rider for point of reference...

not a huge fan of the backwards facing cam. It's just a weird POV and would rather see whats coming rather than whats going imho

i think the backwards cam works, just need someone bombing on your back tire. it's probably better for some short clips than an extended one



dreamn have you done any frame mounts? i'm thinking of experimenting with some bar mounts in different places to see what i can come up with

^yeah I think so too, just playing around right now. I broke my helmet mount last ride but plan to try some different areas like mounting on the frame showing tire would be cool. Definitely need other riders as point of reference.... SKISC dust that bike off!
