Skylar (aka skywalker) needs some new wheels. See here for background. So we're taking up a collection to sponsor the wheelset purchase. I'm trying out a new payment widget. If you can't see it, it might be because you're on a device that doesn't do flash. Please let me know if there are any other problems/concerns. If the flash thing isn't working try here |

Skylar, what brand of brakes and rotor sizes is on your bike? I'd like to mount some rotors on the wheels and provide some race day brake pads also. |

I definitely have a SRAM XO rotor (not sure if it's a 160 or 180...I doubt a 12 year old needs a 180 and a 30.9 Easton carbon seatpost if either of those will help. |

i cant offer much in regards to financial assistance, but if young Skywalker ever develops the need for a bike mechanic I will be more than happy to volunteer my time & labor to him. I may not be a pro shop, but i definitely have the skills & prior racing knowledge to get his bike setup TITS and ready to race (which more than a few members here can vouch for my mechanical abilities). |

This is no ordinary 12 y/o:), he's kicking my old ass 75% up and 100% down:). |

I spend way too much on bikes and only seem to get slower so this seems like the right thing to do. Go Skylar! |

Houston we've got a problem. The wheels I have won't convert to the Trek rear hub configuration; I'll put some feelers out for the right stuff. |

No refunds, I've reached out to a few people to find a nice wheelset; it's gonna happen. |

Skywalker was presented with a DT Jersey several months ago, but an idea for a racing racing style jersey seems cool... Anyone wanna throw some DT Themed designs our way? |

For Quick n' Dirty Races - I'll cover $15 of the entry fee. Good for all 2014. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UWJYLBPMe0 |
