    Compatability 2010 Boxxer with 2019+

    Then please do tell with facts why an Avy equipped Boxxer with coil is dog shit, minus the damper I cant expect the pros forks are all that much different than stock? I have been running this setup for a long time already but with a bigger family come the need for more bikes so another Avy...

    Compatability 2010 Boxxer with 2019+

    Hi I have some older Boxxers and I got ahold of an Avy cart for 2019+ Boxxers and as I discovered it wont fit the older style lowers. So I was thinking to buy a new set of lowers but then I dont know how it is on the spring side between older 2010 version (R2C2) and the new 2019+?

    Suspension Thoughts For AM-Enduro Bike?

    Have you tried nailpolish on the stanchion? I got some burrs on my boxxer and it felt alot better and smoother afterwards. Just apply a tin coat, let it dry and then buff it out carefully.

    This is what's wrong with The Industry™

    I've had probably 4 broken axel bolts on my V10, every bolt broke at the exact same spot. Pretty annoying that such a expensive "toy" can such problems. Everything can brake but if it brakes multiple times then it really is a engineering fault.

    Jedi vs other reward travel frames

    Really liking my new (old 27,5) supreme, think it is the 2017 model in XL. Have a XXL V10, also a 2017 I think. I can most certainly feel that the rear gets out of the way more efficiently, how much faster that really means I cant say but overall I think it is at least energy saving since I can...

    Leogang Lizard Cup 2018

    I would have agreed a few years ago that Gwin is not a "mtb biker" in his heart as many others are and that he is more plain and simple a racer that wants to be the best. But for me it seems he has slowly been changing towards a "true" mtb biker. I think the true test is when he beats the number...

    2018 Very Respectful World Cup #1: Lošinj

    Love Hill and what he has done on a bike but yeah you are right he wont be near a podium on a full on wc track today. Hill did and does remarkable things on a bike but racing a dh is very different from enduro, and I think Hill's area were he shines is being able to tackle new/hard terrain as he...

    2018 Very Respectful World Cup #1: Lošinj

    Seems lika a nice venue......besides the track. Think its time to go full enduro and just accept DH isnt what it used to be. Mr Hill knew the lizards were taking over... #FullEnduro

    How to make a Rock Shox Yari not feel like Butt?

    While getting an Avy cart might be a bit more hassle up front I would go that route as soon as I got any type of RS fork that they are available for. Such a difference, especially to the MiCo and MoCo dampers that plain suck in comparison. Back when I bike bummed a few seasons I always was such...

    2018 offseason guessing game & rumour thread

    Its a change, for better or worse who knows? But how many sports have juniors at the same events as the elite of the sport?

    New bike teaser

    Well a 130 vs 170 is not really an apple to apple comparison. I meant faster bikes as in faster in that specific segment/travel range. Would you rather have a DW 130 bike or a urt 130 bike with a shock from 15 years ago? I know I'd take the DW at least!

    New bike teaser

    No dubt that there is potential for your bike to be really good but I think it will almost be impossible to get that real game changing following now days. Current trail/am bikes are insanely competent machines in even goodish riders hands so it will be really hard to out perform something that...

    Why no more Coil forks?

    Yep for its price its really good, personally I've always had a hard time getting along with Fox shocks (albeit earlier gens than the latest X2) but I've really liked the Vivid. The Vivid feels quite similar to a CCDB but lacks some smoothness imo. Overall you wont be disapointed but there are...

    Manon Carpenter

    Funny guy! So no one races for the reward? How many privateers sticks with racing dh at wc level beyond mid twenties? Sure the primary goal for starting out in a younger age I dubt many say to themselves "yeah I'll win for a few years and be set for life" like with mainstream sports so I'll...

    Manon Carpenter

    Question is more so risk vs reward. Manon dosent get to buy a Porsche even if she would win every race left of her career, so what is she risking life long injury for then? Glory? The women are taking more risk for their rewards than the men and that is both a little stupid and admirable imo...

    Would be hella interesting trying one of these more controversial designs! Thanks for sharing the process though, really shows how hard it is to get your own product to market!

    Warranties

    A follow up question what part/s do you consider and not consider warranty aspects on? For me beyond frame and fork I dont care to much as those are pretty cheap to replace.
