I've mine on a 27.5 DH bike - most of the time I just session shit and trails here are short and steep too. Happy out with them, lever feels great and power is good, no reliability issues really.
The sintered pads get glazed a bit quickly and finish and paint quality on the mc is a bit shit for...
from what little I know on geo and from riding a lot of BMX, I find BB height affects more spinning and leaning the bike while bar height and front center stuff like bar angle, spacers etc is your leverage for hops and manuals. Obvs thats super simplyfying, bar to BB distance and BB height to...
+1 for the motsuv / whatever chainrings, 2 bikes with good mileage on them, no complaints
'ez mtb' bleed kit is spoken highly of already, I haven't much to add.
I have a 'Fouriers' bash guard on the DH bike, holding up pretty well so far with some decent hits to it.
I'm looking for a ZS56/ZS56 1.125" steerer offset headset to shorten up my bike but can't seem to find any. works components are the ones I know best no stock, Commencal own brand ones are also out.
anyone know other manufacturers or brands that make them and are well sealed?
imo injuries will happen cos this sport is fucken gnarly and random mechanicals (especially the chain issues, wtf) means the engineers at bike cos still have a lot of work to do.
i get what you mean though. maybe the more random and unexpected nature of the track suits what redbull want to...
I'm still on Hayes Dominion A2 on the DH bike and happy out with them, way better than curas I had last. they roast pads a bit quick though.
I think the new formula discs are a bit weird - seem howlier than the old drilled style on the wet and they might just be a bit thin for uplift days on a...
getting in a spin during a local race to fulfil my monthly quota before going on hiatus again :)
never get pics of me riding, only have a few including my first ever run down whistler which i think is pretty sick. Still have a lot of work to do on steezing for the cam
I suck at MTB now because I've turned into a slow street BMX ledge whore but If there's a good crew I'll buy a shitty van and drive on over, I feel obligated to send some shit since bucko helped me build my dream DH bike (that i barely ride, lol)
I think big shaft RC4 works decent depending on the bike and if you like a stiff setup. It turned my aul cove from a sofa to a pop machine that feels like a DJ while still feeling decent on tracks. The 2012+ ones after they fixed the explodey compression stacks are dead on reliable too and super...
Renthal ultra tacky is unreal in the wet. Wear out super quick though.
ODI Hoder is my current fave for the shock absorption. Once my renthal lock on wear out I'm moving back to push ons. Hairspray and wire or just glue to eliminate throttle grip. WD40 also works apparently since it melts the...
I've gotten a few from them
I use them in combo with tf tuned low friction bushes or the fox cream 2 piece ones and usually get a good 6-8 months before they develop play. they are super smooth and easy to turn, I think the mix of brass pin and those bushes is good.
the offset one I have in my...
Used a few brands-
Nukeproof sintered on gen1 codes. No complaints. Worked nice, same as stock but cheaper
Nukeproof resin pads on formula ROs. Felt a bit worse than stock
Uberbike sintered on ROs. First set on par with stock performance wise, second set was worse. Idk
Stock formula resin (2...
man that video helps, sweet. It's so odd looking compared to bmx where I stay more stretched out but it looks like it works well. So keep the front super high bordering on loop out, stay bunched up and off the back and look under the bars. Scary!
