Anyone else seem to have trouble with the arm getting some play after a few hours of use? I got the spacers so that the wavy washer almost flattens out and am the the max end of spec torque. Everything seems tight, then I ride a day or two and there is a small amount of pay. Not sure if I...
Tetreault has it 100% correct. As someone who had a Turner DHR on order for well over a year before they got recalled, everything you are saying is happening on every popular model. I believe Specialzed id totally sold out of Demo II's, DHR's are slow to get in most cases, and v10's are not...
I'm 160lbs and I used some Specialed SX Clutch 2.3's for my DH bike most of the year last year. Their 2.3 is slightly larger than a Maxxis 2.5 and their 2.5's are massive. The Clutch are quite grippy, but pedal quite slow and I prefer something faster on the rear. Wished they would make the...
All built with identical parts? I doubt there is 3lbs difference between the frames listed.
My issue with Intense, and this is from a xc bike 5 years ago, was the cost of simple replacement parts. My buddy had the Blur the the same parts were 1/3 the price. That was 5 years ago and not a...
I also wish their platform was a little closer to the mallets and with the ability to add/remove pins as needed. Personally I hated the flip up design.
Looks like I'm going to have to give them a try though.
Has anyone seen/rode the 2011 RC2 DH? As I understand it, the only difference is the new coating and I'm curious if its actually worth waiting/paying for vs. a 2010 on sale?
Yep, and they have been great about telling me! At the end of April the answer we got was "4-6 weeks". I've got that answer every time my shop has asked since then. Hence my point about supply chains. My bet is most consumers care less about if its in country X vs Y then if you actually ship...
Quite ironic when DT himself was telling everyone last fall these frames would be shipping late spring/early summer. Most of us who ordered DHR's in early spring have still not seen our DHR's on anything other than online pics. I've now sadly realized I could have got a Demo 8 or Glory from...
2005 Tacoma double cab long bed.
Issues:
#1 issue is its not diesel, I really want the Toyota Heliux, not a Tacoma.
#2 suspension sucks, even with TURD (TRD) package. Was sagging in less than a year, but i camp a lot in the bed. Replaced coils, leefs, shocks with OME and its been good...
Its hard to compare two idential bikes, one in carbon and one in AL. It was pretty obvious when I went from Al to Carbon on my XC bike (BLT2) going from after I breaking the AL frame.
I won't say I could tell on a big hit, but on washboard/higher frequency type stuff it was really obvious.
Curious if anyone could compare the MK2 to the new DHR. Have had a DHR on order since Feb. and just got told "3-5 more weeks" for the sixth time this year and so I'm getting my $ back and looking at a MK2. Seems similar in HT angle and BB height to the DHR.
