What's The Latest Thing You've Done To Your Specialized Bike?
Picked up some Salsa Flip-Off Skewers to replace the standard Specialized skewers that haven't felt right since a muddy race in April. After my most recent ride, the skewer on the front wheel was so loose I could turn it while closed. Freaked me out a bit so I thought I'd throw on somethin fancy:
In Red for my Silver 07 Epic Comp 

What's your latest change/upgrade?

Put a brand new pair of Shimano PD-MX 30 pedals on my Crosstrail. Did that two days ago on Tuesday. Three hours later I was riding close to the curb to stay out of traffic, and scraped a pedal against the curb. Bummer! Aluminum sure is soft. Now I've got a nice, shiny bevel in the pedal where an edge used to be. Cut a nickel in half, and that's about the size of the damage. No big deal, but that first ding in something brand new is always painful.

I have some Time XS Carbon pedals on the way from Pricepoint.
Mountain biking is not about how fast you go, it's about how many new friends you have at the bar after the ride.

Aside from ordering from the UK, where to get the FSR mudguard? Thanks.

Picked up a well used 99 Rockhopper last sunday, added parts bin pedals and grips last night, getting new tires and tubes tonight. My first MTB, and its a lot of fun to ride (coming from road bikes).
Next on the list is a new bar/stem combo and ride the crap out of it...
