I have Juicy 7's on a 2011 Heckler with 203mm rotors frt and back. They work fine but fade when abused. My FR/DH bike, 2007 VP Free came with Hayes Stroker Ace 4 pot brakes. These things are 1 finger masters and can stop my truck. Great modulation, and a wide array of pad compounds available...
It's often easier to extract using a left hand drill bit. I did and it literally screwed itself out. I had no issues punching right down the center first time. The through bolt and nut would afford greater clamp load, since you can then use hardened nut and bolt. Similar to going from cap screws...
Did you mean a "Heli-Coil" insert? No biggie, but it helps if someone else goes to buy one. I know, it's like "Kleenex," a generic term.
I read the past post about the thread engagement depth. Yes, you're right that you get no more strength than 1.5 times the diameter, but the depth...
Hi,
I can only offer the advice that I know of, or be a know -it-all and offer nothing. Your first choice will be a good first guess. From that you will gain knowledge on what you want, for your circumstances. It appears that you have a good point 'A'. There are many good bikes in the area...
Great thread! Very topical for us here in AZ. Our ride areas have the up then down treats before you get any real dh . You can go from grind to shred in two pedal strokes. At first I laughed at my sons Specialized dropper on his Enduro. Then I tried it and what a difference it makes. Sure it is...
Any option that fills your need is a good option. We did the tailgate blanket and did not have enough stabilization and ended up with some scrapes and rash. How do you guys keep them separated on the gate?
Straps or guides?
Thanks!

Take a look at this: This is what I meant when I said "In Bed Bike Rack." This is what I build, in Aluminum so you can take it out when not in use.

Pretty sweet really. Round tubing on the tire hoops and square on the...
Hey!
I also do fab work. I build and modify off road trucks and cars. Lots of TIG on 4130 and the like. If you choose the proper alloy, (T6511), it actually work hardens after the bending operation. I do get many who do mild steel denouncing the properties of AL, with not much prior...
Hi,
Kinda new here, but not new to fab and bikes. There are lots of bike trailers who have mastered the art of hold downs in minimal space. I googled and found some great ideas to incorporate into bed mount haulers. Upright storage seems to be the most efficient. And safest for the cargo...
