That was my thought. I mean, I was excited to upgrade my binos. But then I checked and for the Vipers, Amazon was same price all teh time on many models and Cabela's was cheaper by a LOT for the 10x42's.
Looks good, but 8 sheets is crap. Most credit card statements will jam it.For anyone who may need to destroy some evidence (or a Liberal's mail-in ballot before it makes its way to the mailbox), BJ's has this great deal on paper shredders:

I have a 12 sheet and some credit card statement jam it. (I throw the entire envelope in, so it has a bunch of crap besides the statement).

Nope looks like it has a feeder for 80?

Yes, I guess it's an auto feeder that can hold up to 80 pages. I'm good with that. My old one burned up recently after about 20 years, so I needed something anyway, and the price was right.
Edit: but eight sheets at a time if you're trying to manually put through a whole document at once.

Eons ago, I bought a shredder off of then-nascent Amazon. It was DOA on arrival. AMZN sent a new one. It was NOT the same model. It was MUCH nicer. "Just keep it." That sucker chewed through everything we threw at it for the better part of 8-9 years. Then it died. Replacing it was impossible at any reasonable price-point. We hired a shredding service instead.

So Brownells has finally updated their very old and clunky website making navigation much easier, at lease in my opinion.

Canyon Bicycles is having a major sale on excess inventory. This is the most ridiculous offer: $600 for basically the same bike I'm using now. If you have any interest in trail riding your local woods, this is the one to get. It'll last for years and has great resale value.

Is this one a girl's bike? Do they have the boy's version? Those handlebars look pretty short. Guessing it is just in the photo. I might consider just adding a front suspension to my existing bike.

Id go with the GC5. Cheaper price and full shimano drivetrain. I'm considering hopping on this just to flip on craigslist.
Lol its a mens bike. They do have a women's version for the wifey. The low angle top tube is so you can lower your seat further for jumpy stuff. Keep if the 750 if you're just doing gravel roads and pavement.

Inside joke? "Clunky"?
Maybe it is a 950. I'm wondering if buying a whole bike is just a little more than the cost of a front suspension in this case.

Lol either way your bike is wicked old. Post in this thread if you might more insight. My opinion is to get a new dedicated trail bike for this summer, sell the old one on craigslist or keep as a backup.

It's all the excess air in there that does it. A stack of paper - like a book - takes forever to truly burn. Paper shreds? Poof!

Are they preban?
Probably can't be proven either way.
They're completely without reference to any ban, and lack any date of manufacture that I've seen from the outside of the mags. The only marking is "Made in Korea" on the bottom.

And with that extra dough you can upgrade the fork, tires, dropper post, etc. So for under $1k, you're set for a while. I post deals, folks.
