Worn clutch and blown up rear end in a Mustang . . . your wife sounds awesome!
She would have to be awesome to put up with a guy like me ;-)

She also likes to wear the corners of the tires.... When she learned the car would turn corners at 40mph without hitting the brakes you can bet she took advantage of it. [emoji48]
 
Not sure a half inch is worth the weight addition...

if I go to a wider bar it won't be these ones
 
Yeah, you will need at least an inch on each side to make a difference. Your 660 mm bar almost needs to be around 700 to make much of a change.

Thanks @OddJob I totally agree and went with the original Zoom bars.

I re-nstalled the brakes a couple weeks ago and have been away from home a week and and had many things going on preventing me from going up the mountain.

Made it out this morning.

The bike rides like a dream now. This ride was better than the last. Better tuned fork and keeping upright helps greatly!

The old proflex now Stops quickly with the stx brakes and new shoes. The seat and gears are a comfortable ride up the hill.

Dig the photo on the big log! She's a rider for sure!

I saw that log as I was coming down the trail and thought it would be a cool pic if I could get the bike to balance on it.

Wow that looks like an awesome ride. Cool bike. Can't get enough of the early MTBs. Makes me want to get the old 1990 Paramount MTB out again.

Nice job on this one.

Thanks Chad. That 90 is a cool bike in it's own as well.
 
You're having a killer time with bike, aren't you?
Great pics!
