    Take that, Live Valve!

    It's nice to see hobbyists tackling the auto-adjusting suspension problem: https://www.instructables.com/Smart-Bike-Suspension/ And as a bonus, here is a (sorta) Open Source Archer auto shifter: https://copynotes.be/shift4me/index.php?page=what

    PB down?

    I started digging a bit on the possible cause, and found this: See that "clientHold" status? Let's find out what it means: seems like they either switched hosting and it didn't go too well, or they have a legal dispute about the domain.

    Anyone with a DVO Topaz and a Vernier caliper?

    Hey fellas, I need volume spacers for a DVO Topaz, and they're unobtainable down here. Since I have a 3D printer I figured out if someone could measure one I could replicate them for essentially nothing, and a lot faster than if they were shipped from the Northern hemisphere. Could someone...

    PB down?

    Seems like the Borg has finally assimilated PB into Outside. The site has been down for several hours now.

    Poland monkeys, need your input!

    Hey, my manager wants me in Katowice, Poland at the end of the month for 4 days. He promises I'll be heading home with an alcoholic coma, but I was wondering if anyone from Poland (@norbar is the most memorable Polish monkey IIRC) could chime in and suggest what else could I do there besides...

    What coil length for a 210x55 metric shock? Asking for a friend...

    Literally, a friend has a brand new Ibis Ripmo AF with a metric DVO Jade coming his way, and it seems like he will be undersprung (Ibis puts a 400 lb/in coil in the medium sized one and all points out to him needing a 500 lb/in). So I was wondering if anyone could point me to a spring size...

    Is it just me with issues while editing posts?

    Hey @binary visions I'm having a hard time embedding images in posts. If I link them from other sites I get an error, so I'm resorting to uploading them to the post and then embedding them. But then I cannot edit the post further, as I get the error I'm showing in the screenshot (let me know if...

    Looking for advice to improve my chili game

    Hi there, been cooking chilli for a while now, but I still feel there's something missing with it. The flavor isn't as round, zesty and spicy as the ones I tasted when I visited the US. I have the boundary of my wife not enjoying hot spicy food, so stuffing the pot with jalapeños isn't an...

    Wanted WTB 8.5 x 2.5 shock

    Looking for a cheap shock, coil if possible, nothing fancy but would prefer a piggyback one.

    New EXT ERA fork

    Singletrack has been hyping the fork along with Chris Porter from Mojo. Apparently EXT innovated in the bushing surface and seals to minimize friction. And they say something about new ways to adjust the fork's parameters. Color me intrigued...

    New spammer just entered the monkey

    I just noticed this (new) user started following me here in the site, right after registering: https://ridemonkey.bikemag.com/members/felicityg40.132980/#about It's probably following a few more users. Its bio says this: So if it barks like a spammer, it smells like a spammer and it looks...

    [it's not] Too early for Ft. Bill?

    I know, I know, it's still a stretch till our lovely Scottish venue, but @Gary 's people are just being mean as they usually do, and they stole Rock Jeebus' steed: https://www.pinkbike.com/news/aaron-gwins-race-bike-stolen-in-edinburgh.html

    Marzocchi Roco TST Air rebound rod o-ring size

    Hey guys, a friend brought me this shock. It leaks oil through the rebound dial. I disassembled it and the o-ring in the rebound shaft is so toasted I couldn't accurately measure it. I can't find the right one locally, tried 2x1 and 2x2 metric ones and it seems it's an Imperial one, since the...

    BB30 cranks in BSA frame

    Hey, I just got a second-hand set of SRAM direct-mount cranks as a gift, from a friend. I have a regular threaded BB frame, and I can get a Race Face BB threaded BB and a SRAM DM compatible chainring really cheap. I'm wondering if the regular (not boost) direct mount SRAM-compatible chainrings...

    ISO an affordable 2.5 layer waterproof jacket

    Greetings, monkeys. Winter is coming my way, and given it's been a couple of years since El Niño, we know it'll be a pretty damp one. I intend to keep riding come rain or come shine, so I'm searching for an affordable 2.5 layer waterproof jacket with a hood ample enough to fit my helmet...

    NeoPOS?

    I can't even believe the name. It looks like an interesting idea, until you realize you're getting the bottom-out characteristics of a coil with the small bump compliance of an air fork :weee:. https://m.pinkbike.com/news/formula-introduces-a-new-technology-for-air-suspension.html

    RS IFP pump adapter

    Hey Monkeys, could anyone with a RS Air Adapter Tool take some measurements and post them over here? We are about to go on a bike trip to start 2018 the right way and a friend's Monarch needs a rebuild. We have already sourced the necessary o-rings and seals but we can't find the adapter...

    A cock ring for your upper head

    The latest and greatest way to avoid concussions seems to be keeping your upper head the way you wanna keep your lower one te ensure maximum happyness: inflated with blood. In theory this limits the amount the brain can move back and forth in a sudden deceleration event, thus preventing neuronal...
