The saturday before i got my glory last monday, i was out riding on my ht. Needless to say i over did it, way to much speed, and took the turn to wide. As i was turning i turned to much to the right and with that much speed i hit a bump that sent me in the air 6ft down the trail. As i landed 3ft before the tree to the right i missed my brake levetr and nailed my pinky. They call it a Boxer break, Its not my pinky finger, but rather the bone that connects the pinky to the wrist. Another week in a cast, and 2 to ride or less.But earlier today i rode partially down my local mtn. I love my bike. I will say the fork and soft suspemsion saved my ass big time. Just need more air in my Roco then its set.

Ill let some air out, the dam shop put in 18psi and it fells way to stiff. Even though the mech preload is down to 0. I guess if the paint gets to bad, ill just get it powder coated. Thanks for the tips, when i start riding again ill def have more questions.
