    Rims - carbon and metal

    Is this in regards to the SC Reserve warranty? That policy is not 24hrs once it arrives anywhere - you actually don't ship the wheel at all. The warranty states they'll have a new wheel coming to you thin 24 hours of their receipt of the warranty form and pics (assuming they are going to...

    Rims - carbon and metal

    The Santa Cruz Wheels are lifetime. Not sure where you heard 5 years, but see this link. Lifetime. Forever. No limits. They also mention a crash replacement - unsure how often that'll be implemented or what cost would be. https://www.santacruzbicycles.com/en-US/reserve-wheels-info

    Rims - carbon and metal

    $1900 for the Santa Cruz reserve with I9 hubs, and a full blown warranty, as in 24hr turn around and a new wheel, not just rim. Do I understand that correctly? Can't see how you could justify another plastic wheelset with that on the table.... That said, I am a stingy bastard and will be on my...

    Next generation Nomad?

    New Bronson sure does check a lot of boxes. A lot to like. Imagine the Hightower LT will get the same upgrade suite over next year or three.

    What trail bike tire casings don't suck?

    Was coming here to say the exact same. I had a great time on my Butcher 2.3's. On the new build I went back to Maxxis for the 2.5 axxxion. Guess a question is how do the Spesh 2.6's measure compared to Maxxis 2.5's?

    Guerrilla Gravity, badass frame manufacturer in Colorado

    Right, but 10 years ago you may have said the same with 135/142. No one saw 148 coming, or heaven forbid 157. Are we finally getting close to the end?>! All I know for sure is on my Banshee's since 2015 I've run 135, 142, 148, and 150 hubs, and it's been pretty rad needing a $100 kit for each...

    Guerrilla Gravity, badass frame manufacturer in Colorado

    e.g. Banshee. I like it. More parts, more weight. Most versatile. A lot of people don't like it though.....too worried about 100 grams on their 31lb bikes!

    OneUp Dropper Post

    Got my first ride in on this thing. Mated to the Wolftooth Remote. Damn....smooth. No wiggle at all in the saddle like my LEVs have had. Return was super solid. You can really "feel" when the actuator is engaged, so you know when you deploy your bum on the saddle to lower it. Again, 1 ride, but...

    New Whip? New toys for the dependable steed?

    Here I can finally contribute to this thread. Black Betty is built and first ride last night. I'll say - does not suck. In fact, I'm blown away at the cornering of this thing. Still dialing in settings/pressures/etc and just one loop at my local trail so far. Will be able to provide a mo' betta'...

    Procore / Ghettocore progress thread

    Brilliant - maybe I'll have a few brews prior to forking over the cost, because otherwise it sure does hurt. The product has saved me way more in tire costs, so I call it a win....#logic What PSI do you run in your front?

    Procore / Ghettocore progress thread

    Is this the right thread? Cush Core question. I started running Cush Core on the rear last October and guys it'll blow your tits off. Zero flats. From October through present. From a guy who blew up 6 tires in 7 weeks in The Flat Times of 2017. So I am totally sold. But here's my question - run...
