    Question Jong Freeride Question

    Black Diamond's deal on freerides is longs only which is a good thing. Only comes with standard size brakes however and I need wides for my Monster 85's. Looking on BD's site and Fritschi's, I can't tell if they are interchangeable. They have to be right?? The 199 price plus 47 for wides at a later date is still less than the 285 if I wait. Or should I wait and pay full for this years model? WWMD?

    Jong away..... and thanks.

    BD used to swap the brakes out for free. Ask if they still do.

    yes they are interchangeable.

    Yah Fez, but the deal says no wides left so no substitutions on this deal price. There lays the true problem...

    NO they don't, and the retails of next years freeride is well over 320 US.

    The last bastion of the half-wit closet homosexual/homophobe. Glad we cut to the chase so fast and i get to see exactly what type of moron im dealing with here.

    Listen Cock, I offer H-man some advice relating MY experience with purchasing freerides from BD and having them swap out the brakes for me. You call bullshit on it with nice big caps, then call me a dick. And you have the unmitigated audacity to flip ME shit?

    Sorry Cock, but that is completely out of line.

    H-man, sorry for the hijack, but just like at the county fair, gotta swat em down as soon as they pop their heads up.

    Whack-a-Mole

    It's up to you if you want to pay $70 for the new model. I don't think there is much difference.

    I run my standard Freeride brake on my Explosives. No need for a wide on a Monster 85s.

    I've got the regular brakes on both 91mm&89mm waist skis and have no problems. you just have to tweak them a little. do a search for that. i remember a few posts on that.

    I concur. I've got standard brakes on my Kneissl Tankers, with a slight amount of bend they work fine. (93 mm vs 85 mm on the Monster)

    Man I Love This Place!

    Thanks, guys, problem solved. Sounds like 199 bills with standard brakes is a good, no, great deal with this years prices. Consider them bought.

    Trainnvain, you touring the Whites often with yours? Thats what I'm looking to start doing. If so we should link up.

    i gotta admit, what you lack in intelligence, wit, humor and probably most other social skills, you more than make up for in persistence.

    270 posts and finally something funny. ok, no iggy bin for you yet.

    <edit> you know what? this actually wasnt funny.

    well except in the sense that is very ironic. a moron like you, who's opening salvo in any disagreement is to call people gay or a fag, has the gall to call someone else ignorant.

    call alanis, a canadian has finally defined irony.

    im tired of you, so goodbye
