  1. My new Summit has finally arrived, well actually it came
    on Thursday but I was away Friday to now (Sunday). I rode
    it some, Thurday night just getting introduced. Ya know,
    the ususal...

    Me - "How was your trip?"

    Summit - "Good."

    Me - "Thats good."

    It seemed really solid and equally sluggish which was to be
    expected, but we worked out our differences. I did some
    bigger gaps and drops then I ever did before on Thursday. I
    was stoked to come home and ride today, but unfortunately
    had to pull back. I haven't had a chance to get the spokes
    tightened yet, and could here some creaking when hopping.
    Its Sunday, so no place is open and tomorrow's a holiday and
    I feel like jumping off a building. Does anyone know how to
    do it without a wrench, I mean if its possible.

    Also I'm having trouble with the allen bolts. The seatpost
    twists quite easily, and on thursday I had to tighten the
    bearing housings almost every ten minutes. Anyone have any
    input on that?

    A little creaking won't hurt anything. Get them tightened
    sometime in the next couple of months, but don't put off
    riding because you think you'll hurt your wheel. Ride it as
    much as you like.
