Hey gang,
I recently purchased a pre-owned 2019 Ibis Ripmo with the Grip 2 Damper on the Fox 36 and man, am I having a Hell of a time...
I began by setting up the suspension the same way I always have - starting with the manufacturer recommendations and tweaking from there but after two months...
Hi everyone. I am 15 years old and I am relatively new to downhill. Last year I bought a Gary fisher all mountain bike and I snapped the frame, so I bought a 2004 Astrix Huckster but I suffered a back injury shortly after that so I sold it.
I was just cleared to ride dh again so I bought a...
Hello guys! My name is Andre, I'm from Portugal, and I'm an recreative and passionate mountain biker (at the moment I only do Downhill, but I used to do Enduro, XC and also road cycling 15 years ago). I always enjoyed to see/learn/know/discuss about rear suspension of mountain bikes.
Therefore...
I have been searching for an Obtanium or K9 brand thirst bearing with no luck! It has to be one of those two brand because the spring I am using (Obtanium) and the shock I am using (Vivid) both use 1.5 ID. If you have one and are looking to get rid of it please let me know, thanks!
Come check out Dirtlabs' new location this Saturday at our grand re-opening party. True, we never closed, but, what the hell, it's an opportunity to hang out, have some free hot dogs, cup cakes, and beer (to those 21+ of course).
Where: Dirtlabs new location at 3046 Valmont Road, Boulder...
I wanted to let you know that SRAM / RockShox is planning a few RockShox Ride Experience days at Loyce Park this weekend April 14-15. We're a 2nd cousin to what most folks know as a demo. We'll roll a little differently in the sense that we don't focus on the name on the downtube, we're all...

I changed the springs in my '10 Boxxer Team, the stock red spring came with Red Rum on it. I did not have enough grease to transfer from spring to spring so I put Phil Wood on instead is this alright will it cause any damage? It appeared to be a thicker grease than the Red Rum.
I used to use Slick Honey when living in Aussie land and haven't been able to find a worthy substitute here in Canada. What is everyone using to lube up their bushings and seals? Currently I am using a mix of this good red grease (can't remember the name of it) and 2 wt fork oil. Nice and wet...
After hearing about the canfield brothers video contest, I have been thinking of building a microcontroller based device to record how well suspension systems absorb impacts using accelerometers. I was thinking of attaching one accelerometer to the bike seat and the other on the rear triangle...
Hi guys,
So I'm looking for some advice on my Pike. It's a dual air, u turn unit.
Somewhat recently, I changed the seals to enduro seals. In the process, I may have slightly nicked the inners where the seals seat. I reassembled with copious amounts of suspension grease.
Anyway...
And it was all over a trip to the store.
I went to the store, and when I got there there were two full suspension bikes with 8" rotors, the works, and some chick sitting next to them. I asked them if they were hers and she told me that her boyfriend (who was inside the store) had built them...
I was looking through the King of the mountain blog and saw a post of the new Trek Session 88 DH. and I was completely blown away when I saw it, and then saw the weight. I'm pretty impressed
quote from Trek:
Vance McCaw (who works in the Product group) and Brady Schroedl (the engineer...

OW...OW...
