    2020 Fox 40 Grip2 frustration

    To start, I hate air spring forks & shocks. Always rode coil forks starting back in 1996 when I tossed the elastomer stack in my RS Judy and converted to coil. My last 40 was an 09, so coil. My 2019 36 has been upgraded with a Push ASC3 kit. So now that leaves the 2020 40 so not a lot of...

    Fox 36/Push ACS3/Grip2 (first generation) harshness

    Any recommendations for settings on this set up? I'm about 225lbs and can't seem to find the sweet spot. Sag is correct, just seems harsh on root/rock sections. I've heard more negative remarks about the original Grip2 than positive. Just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and...

    To Cushcore or not to Cushcore, that is the question?

    I've recently been toying with the idea for my DH bike. Northstar has not been tire/rim friendly for me in the past with dented rims and torn tires. For those who have tried them, what are the positives vs negatives. I realize the rotational weight gain, but the bike is already pushing 39+lbs...

    Sram 12sp derailleur swap from 50t to 52t chain length difference?

    My Sram GX 50t is pretty much shot, so I just picked up a 52t X01 (still using 50t cassette). The distance between the pulley wheels are the same, I believe its just the offset to allow for the bigger cassette. I was hoping to do a direct swap without pulling the shock (coil) to determine chain...

    RideFast Carbon rims?

    Does anyone have experience riding these? They look like they roll off the same assembly line as Light Bicycle. I'm running Stan's Flow carbon on my Evil Offering and really like them, however I'm reusing the hubs on my Supreme DH which are 28h. Flows are only available in 32h, which makes me go...

    Best coil shock for Commencal Supreme DH?

    So I ended up grabbing a used 2020/21 Supreme DH, without the shock. Since I'm jumping into foreign territory (19 years riding only Karpiel's) I'm kinda lost now on what seems to be the best all around shock for this bike. I prefer coil over air, and seem to be leaning towards the Fox DHX2...

    Intense M29? and yes, I just sold my Karpiel

    During the pandemic I picked up an Evil Offering for trial riding. Fast forward to last Saturday, I went to Northstar. Riding my 2012 26" Armageddon, I was fighting it all day. Though I'd readjust after a few runs, but no such luck. The bike just felt to small and just not digging on the 26...
