    Handlebar Roll + Reach

    Definitely going to bring the whole 'elbow bending' into consideration :doh:i agree a lot of this is internet hype but when you're stuck in an office all day internet hype makes a confused rider. Sounds like stem is probably the route to go. It's not just internet hype about sweep/roll etc but...

    Handlebar Roll + Reach

    Hey Ridemonkey world. I'm currently looking to open up a bit more cockpit space on my Pivot Phoenix. I'm just a hair under 5'11 so always on the fence between a medium and large frame. Given how small my older Turner was I opted for the medium. However after 2 months on the bike I'm starting to...

    2016 Bronson v 5010

    I went with the 5010 and a 150mm Fox 34. The last thing I need to figure out are wheels since apparently no one does 148...

    2016 Bronson v 5010

    These are definite first world problems and I'm happy that these are the choices I'm between. Sticking with s.c cause it's what my shop carries and I really want to support them... And I'm getting a sweet deal. I think the 5010 is probably for me, I'm pretty light at 150lb so a big burly bike...

    2016 Bronson v 5010

    That time of the year where I'm selling my old trail bike (2012 Transition Bandit) and looking to move into something new. I live in Denver so mostly ride the front range which means lots of climbing then some good long descents, nothing super technical. The tricky part is this bike needs to be...

    Fox x2 new shocks

    X2 definetely fits in the Turner but I broke my foot so no idea how it rides... But it's a whole lot lighter than the rc4 with steel spring that was on there...

    Fox x2 new shocks

    I'm also running a 350 so my sag is right where I want it to be. I jsut feel like the x2 offers a bit more tuning, i can add a little extra air to help offset that issue. I also am getting conflicting reports on it fitting but I think it will squeeze in there.

    Fox x2 new shocks

    Part of what I'm not liking on the RC4 is that it's actually feeling a bit too linear. I'm not the most suspension savvy but even with extra PSI (I weigh 150 and have 155 in the chamber) and turned on a bit of HSC but still find it buzzing the seat deep in some corners or on less than smooth...

    Bike-Discount.de -- Shimano Saint Blowout?

    I got everything in a pretty timely fashion all things considered and it was all perfect. Definitely would order through these guys again

    Fox x2 new shocks

    Just out looking for as many opinions as possible! I don't think the air can will fit but they have one in the shop I think they're going to try and squeeze in there real quick to double check. If not then the X2 Coil is probably my next step...

    Fox x2 new shocks

    Such quality responses... Kidding but seriously looking for some real world feedback if possible

    Fox x2 new shocks

    Apparently it will fit (my mechanic is double checking right now). Everyone keeps saying progressive this that and the other so I'm hoping for some people who are using this on a DH bike to chime in

    Fox x2 new shocks

    That is a bit of my concern as well which is why I'm wondering if I'm better off with my RC4 and just a TI spring to help drop a little weight. I have no idea what that curve looks like on the x2

    Fox x2 new shocks

    Right now the RC4 that's on there feels fine it's not like it's a junker but if I can drop two pounds and add a little in the tuneability department that seems like a win. Anyone out there want to talk me out of adding an X2 to my DHR? Udi?

    Has anyone gotten some significant dh time on one of these? Really considering one for Turner dhr...

    Fox X2 Float

    Looking to drop some weight off my ride and got a very tempting offer to get a new Fox X2 Float or even the coil version. I'm checking to see if anyone has gotten some real ride time on these. It would be going on a Turner DHR, I'm a light rider (not the smoothest, but don't weigh much) and feel...

    Fox 40 Hydrolock?

    Hey, it appears that the damper needs new seals in my 2012 Fox 40 Rc2 (compression is at the top of the fork) as it's ramping up ridiculously fast. My question is, can I just bleed the fork of oil, push in new oil and get through a single day of riding? I'm coming up about 2-3 inches short of...

    Bike-Discount.de -- Shimano Saint Blowout?

    Sorry for being hesitant about not wanting to donate $400 to some not real company...jee wiz

    Bike-Discount.de -- Shimano Saint Blowout?

    I will say the guys who have already ordered Saint are saying they haven't gotten anything since they placed it 2 weeks ago...no reason for worry...right?
