    why stiffer spring in fork = nose dive?

    curious as to the mechanics of why this happened. i have an '11 boxxer rc. soft spring, rebound set to 10 in for smoother/faster places i ride. i left that in there for a while. went to a different spot more fr oriented w/ bigger jumps, and dropped the firm spring in. figuring that the...

    w/ the rainy season on its way, the riding conditions at the place i ride at dramatically changes. rode yesterday, a day after it rained...and the conditions ranged as such... -one trail was slick w/ 1-2" of muck in areas w/ poor drainage. it was sticky stuff that didnt want to shed off the...

    knee guard protection in knee pad package?

    i took a spill in a section of riding today that threw me over the bars and landed knee first into a root (as well as the mouth piece of the helmet slamming into the ground). it swelled up and very difficult to move, and hoping its just bad bruising and not a broken/cracked knee cap. talk...

    look at ATC + travel, or just ATC when comparing forks?

    I recently switched from a '11 domain to a '11 boxxer. the domain had a 40mm 0* rise stem, and for the boxxer i put a cheap 45/50mm stem w/ a 30mm rise. hate how it feels. i lowered the crowns down about 12mm down from the top of the stanchion to help offset, but that isnt the issue...

    Any issues w/ running a 2.75" ti coil on a 3" shock?

    I can get a very good deal on a 2.75" stroke ti coil. Basically half or a little under half the cost of what a regular priced ti coil is...so it's a very good deal that I dont want to pass up if possible.. With that said, my current shock is 9.5x3 so it needs a 3" stroke shock. But with ti...

    where's the good stuff inside Juaquin miller?

    I remember meeting some fellow DH'ers at the base of cinderella a few months ago and having a small chit-chat with them, and they gave me some input about some funner 'unmarked' trails inside JMP. That kinda flew over my head, as i didn't pay attention because I was in glee from just coming...
