    I have a shitty 40

    Monkey Dudes...I have a brand new Fox 40 Performance 29", for clarity this is the all black OEM fork w/ garbage compression tuning capability. I think the platform is great, but the damper sucks. I would like to get recommendations on how to make this thing a little more tune-able for heavy bike...

    Carbon Repair

    I could have searched but that would have been way too easy. I have an evil wreckoning I got from a buddy which has a very minor gouge to the carbon (3mm or so) in the middle of the seat stay. Honestly it doesn't look like its even fully through the carbon. I am planning to repair it and use it...

    Rampage 2022

    Figure this is necessary... Unfortunately it sounds like Straight was Heli lifted out of practice. Hope it was just a precaution and wish him the best.

    Europe Folks...Need advice

    My girl and I are planning on spending about 10 days in Europe this summer. Part of the trip we would like to focus on riding in the Alps. Lift assist would be cool, and especially cool would be connecting to other towns etc. via trail. I figured before I started digging into things too deep I'd...

    Old Twenty 6 Pedal Help

    Hey dudes - I have had this pair of Twenty 6 pedals sitting around in a box for a few years because I lost one of the nuts holding the spindle on. From everything I can gather this is a proprietary nut and can't seem to find a replacement. Does anyone by chance have one of these laying around...

    Snowshoe 2021

    Figured I'd start a thread for the race in a couple weeks. I was down at Snowshoe over the weekend and most of the track is looking good until you get to the final feature. :twitch: I suspect this will drum up some 'conversation'...

    Lightish 29" Alloy Rims?

    Hey folks, question for everyone. I am in need of a new wheelset and after running carbon rims on several bikes over the past few years I am thinking I'll go back to alloy for a bit more of a supple ride. Who is running some i35 ish rims which are reasonably light they really like? Primary usage...

    Broke a piston in my XTR Brake

    Has anyone done this? It was a total idiot move on my part but a bit cracked off and moved the seal so fluid started dripping out. I ordered some 3rd party piston which arrived yesterday. Any tips on the replacement process? This is an XTR 4 piston for reference...Thanks guys...

    Palm Item I had Sitting Around

    Been cleaning up and organizing a bunch of stuff lately and figured I'd share this w/ the DH crowd. These are a pair of Palm's SPY goggles from the 1997 (ish) NORBA at 7 Springs. He had a bad run in the finals, got pissed and chucked his goggles into the crowd. My 10 year old little brother ran...

    Fat 365

    I realized on my ride yesterday that as of Nov 2nd I have been riding this 2019 Salsa Beargrease as my primary 'XC' bike for a solid year now. Not sure why but after last winter I didn't want to put it away and have really been enjoying it. I've got it down to be pretty light at about 27 lbs w/...

    Since the DH thread has kinda become the half enduro thread I figure I would ask you guys this question in here...I need to 'unblack' my pike, building up a bike and the stripped down look will suit it best. Has anyone done this? My experience w/ stripping magnesium is thin at best... My...

    Let's Make Ridemonkey Great Again...

    Ever since the lizard people have taken over it just isn't the same. This is the internet and I'm allowed to post rambling crap. What happened to photos of people riding? DHgirlie talking about shaved nut sacks? Mountain Creek debates? Brungeman's drinking habits? I hang out in the DH forum...
