If your frame was legitimately made by Pacific then I apologize, but I certainly wouldn't think you went that route, nor was I aware Pacific made custom frames or 29er frames.
If it wasn't Pacific I'm curious to know who made it. That's all. Nothing more, nothing less.
I think everyone here knows you're a better rider than me. You'll find no dispute from me on that issue.
What`d I miss? Anyways Stans rocks. No issues for me either, just be carefull the valve core is tightened enough. I loosened it when I unsrcewed the valve to add some air and down she went I pumped it back up with ease with my little pack pump.If a tire is tight to install make sure the beads arein the inner channell. I did`nt know that untill I watch Stans video on that subject and my tire went on almost to easy
