Had a really good trail run yesterday. Hit some of the rockiest trails I've run to date. My sliders were abused constantly from all angles, and they didn't even flinch. I landed on them a few times, slid over the top of and along the sides of rocks several times.

I've banged around the sliders before, but never like I did yesterday. I couldn't be happier with my sliders - nice job Jason. Like a bonehead, I left my camera at home, so I don't have any pics. I'm hoping to get a few pics from some of the other people in the group... if any of the shots show the sliders in action, I'll post them here.

hows the paint holding up? Did you rattle can it, or Powdercoat them?

I spray painted them. They need to be done a couple of times each year. I don't have mudlfaps on my rig, so they take a beating during the northeast winters (rocksalt is hell on the paint). They also get beat up from the metal clips in my mountain bikign shoes, and obviously from trail use. I just pick a nice afternoon, tape newspaper to the side of my rig and throw a quick couple of coats of paint on them. Takes me about 90 minutes, no big deal.
