Not sure we are on the same page dave. I am concerned with the remote reservoir, which has the boost valve adjuster on it, and nitrogen and oil inside, seperated by a floating piston. I am certain I inflicted the small dent too. Also, Fox provides instructions to service the air sleeve on their...
Hey,
Anyone know where I can access a schematic drawing of the DHX air (5.0)? I need to determine where the floating piston in the reservoir is situated - I put a little dent in it.
Hey all,
Anyone know where I can access a detailed schematic drawing of the DHX air (5.0)? I have inflicted a small dent on my reservoir, and am concerned about the floating piston inside being affected. I'd like to determine whether the dent is in the range of the piston so that I can decide...
Uh yeah, I make a point to respond to ancient posts at least once a week. Actually, no, didn't notice. Thanks for notifying me of the fact that I am a tool though; its always good to be reminded.
Right on Mike B, thanks for giving us the skinny. I am always sceptical about reports like the ones I encountered about your sealant, so I figured I would put out the feelers and see what others thought. Its always nice to get it from the horses mouth.
Dude, you are in luck - I have been running this setup for years. I have a set of the splined Bulbs with 5bolt rotors. I too tried to find new spiders to fit 6bolt rotors since I only run Hayes Mags. I have never found anything. But don't worry. Get/use rotors that are as close to your Hayes as...
As I suspected, the drive ring is seperate, being steel, while the hub body is aluminum. But it must be press fit/bonded like crazy. I will contact them and see what they say. Thanks for the help man.
Excellent. daveP's explanation makes quite a bit of sense to me. I intend on using UST approved tires, as I have so far (Michelins), so I ought not to have trouble. Out of curiosity, have any of you used Stan's rims? I am used to the quality level of Mavic's 521/721s, and switched to the 819...
Anyone have any experience with mangling the drive ring and freehub body on a rear Bulb? After about 6years use (which I am quite happy about), my freehub body is gouged from the drive ring, and a few of the teeth on the drive ring (in the hub shell if this is not clear) are broken off/mangled...
I just reduced my lineup by morphing my Big Hit and Sinister DNA into a new 2006 Specialized Enduro Pro - this is my 'mountain bike'
Also:
Cannondale R 800 - Road Bike - road riding is fun, really.
Surly CrossCheck - in the works as an all rounder: kiddie trailer puller, city bike, off road...
If your Sx has the same headtube as my Pro frame, the answer will be no, but for a different reason than already stated. On my frame, the headtube is only bored about 15mm deep. I know the Race Face Diabolus just fits, and that my Chris King Steelset won't. My plan is to have a buddy cut about...
For rims, try Mavic 721s. they will offer you a good balance between suppleness (ability of the rim to conform to the ground) and flat spot resistance. Some rims will be harder to flat spot, but also harder to keep properly tensioned because they are TOO stiff. Super deep rims are this way. 721s...
To those upset about Mavic not supplying the tool for the nipple 'buckets', here is a question for you: do you think tools grow on trees? Even if they did, would anyone need more than one? No. The onus is on you to get your s**t together and get yourself the tool if you are going to run the...
"They rely on people buying XTs for no reason. When you look into it they're pointless."
I am starting to think this might be the case. The fact that Shimano provides no detailed technical specs regarding alloys and tolerances makes me suspect there are no substantial differences beyond the...
Ok, so a riding buddy and I are stumped. We both need new cranks for our 06 Enduros, which we will use for trail riding/xc and downhill. Until now it seemed the external bearing (05 and 06) Xt crankset was perfect for the application. Now, Shimano has Lx in the same design and options, for...
I'll be another to recommend yoga. I have done weights and do yoga, and can attest, yoga is better. The pose pictured is very strenuous, and an excellent strengthener from the whole backside of your body. Yoga is the best compliment to riding I know if; it covers all the bases like nothing else...
Oh yeah, take Vega about an hour or so beforehand. And also, consider the amount of money and care you invest in your racing and riding, then consider the care you invest in your nutrition. Seems logical to try to equalize these aspects of your experience.
Something yall might consider trying is Vega, which is a powder (certified) meal replacement that you mix with water. There are a number of benefits to taking this approach: fully vegan, all organic, provides you with the complete spectrum of nurients you need, reduces nutitional stress, easily...
