Build up my 2013 Covert 29er frame on Saturday. Still have to trim the reverb line down and throw the 2.4 Ardent and Nobby Nic on but pretty happy with it. Came in at 13.8kg in XL
Yeah I have the straight tube version. Its a 2011 and I weigh about 89kg with gear on. Sag with the 200 spring was bang on 35mm which is 40%. And that's using a steel spring. I think my idel spring would be about 225 which is why I'm also looking at a CCDB air shock once I hear more on their...
Sorry my bad. Those setting are from slowest for rebound, and fully open or anti-clockwise from memory for the LSC and HSC. I'm actually thinking of trying a 250 spring to see how it feels but unsure yet. Might tweak the low speed a bit more yet.
I'm 200 with gear and run a 200 spring and its spot on. Thing you have to remember is the frame runs best at 40% sag. With the RC4 I"ve settled on the following settings for our rough, rocky tracks: rebound 9 clicks, HSC 3 clicks, LSC 4 clicks and I haven't touched the boost valve and even when...
I think there was some stuff with Cycling Australia that also lead to her quitting for a while. Cant remember the exact details by i think it had to do with the world champs when Canberra hosted them.
I just bought a Superstar components Tech2 EVO DH wheel set for under $300 Australian delivered. Weight is supposed to be 2280 grams and only found out about them in the dirt 100. Will see how they go when they get here.
Ok I'm about 91-92kg with gear (about 200lb), do I go for a 200 spring or 250? I ask this as I know springs are never correct. Am I better going slightly higher and I'm going to see how the RC4 shock goes before I think about the CCDB.
So I'm about to buy a Makulu frame and it comes with an RC4. My problem is do I stick with the RC4 or upgrade to a CCDB? Has anyone had time on both? Also it's a runout frame so I'll have to pay $600 for the CCDB. Any advise would be great.
