    2010 Marzocchi 888 Evo tuning thread

    Just got mine. I weigh about 150lbs with gear. What settings would be a good place to start when I'm tuning it for DH and also when I'm tuning it for FR.

    Carbon V10 with all the latest goodies - 33.5lbs

    Do you think that santa cruz will continue to make the aluminum V10 after the carbon one is available like they do for the Nomad?

    So my 2007 888 ATA acted up when I put more air in it. I let all of the air out of the top chamber first, and then added air to the PAR. As I unscrewed the pump after filling the PAR to 100psi, it started pissing massive amounts of oil at me. At that point, I figured a seal was broken, so I went...

    New drivetrain help.

    I think e13 rings are just stronger and lighter. I went with a 12-25 Ultegra cassette and 38t e13 ring. I went with that because I never need anything shorter than 36:26, but I sometimes wanted a higher ratio than 36:11.

    New drivetrain help.

    Type of climbing is pedaling up logging roads. No climbing on trails or anything.

    New drivetrain help.

    I'm goin with the Saint. I just like the feel of the shifts more, and it seems indestructible. What gear ratios should I go for? I'm thinking Ultegra cassette with a 37 tooth ring but I'm not sure If the ratio will be low enough to pedal to the top of trails. Thoughts?

    New drivetrain help.

    I need to replace the shifter/derailleur/cassette/chainring/chain on my Stinky. What setup should I go for? I have $250-300 USD. I want something that is going to perform well and last quite a while. Right now I'm looking at the SRAM X.9 vs Shimano Saint.

    Air shock on a Stinky

    I trust you, but over $500 for a shock is a lot of money.

    Ironhorse 6Point

    I found a great deal on a 2008 6Point frame that I'm thinking about getting. Right now I ride on a 2008 Kona Stinky. The trails I ride would be do-able on a smaller bike, and maybe easier. BUT I'm thinking about getting into racing. Would a 6Point be a good mini-DH/FR bike if build up correctly...

    Air shock on a Stinky

    I'm getting a new shock for my 2008 Stinky. I'm debating getting an air shock. Does anyone know how it will perform in comparison to a coil?
