"Vulcanization is a chemical process for converting rubber or related polymers into more durable materials via the addition of sulfur or other equivalent "curatives." These additives modify the polymer by forming crosslinks (bridges) between individual polymer chains.[1] Vulcanized material is less sticky and has superior mechanical properties" - Wikipedia. Basically, its a badass glue. Shoes with Vulcanized soles have that thinner feel. If you like to really feel the pedal, then go for a Vulcanized sole. I wear these to the park sometimes, they feel super good for Footjams.

Dear theboss, A bossless crank is actually stronger. There's less surface area being welded and a better weld point. Also they are lighter. But, worst case scenario, we will have your back 100% with a sexy new pair.

Guilty. Spot is too good to not take Burns to. Check out the Tony Malouf edit, he did some work there.

Jono_tempered, to answer your question, Augie rides a Felt Franchise Killer. It's Scotty Cranmer's new Frame.

I didn't forget about Rusty Shackleford. It just doesn't quite have the ring that "gribble grip" does. Plus Gribble is a very unique name, where as Shackleford could leave some confusion.
