Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the Ride basically just a longer travel, dual crown Pike? All of the adjustments are the same, right?Bicyclist said:The new Ride is so much better than the old one it's ridiculous. Way more adjustment.

No the ride uses the same damper as the Team and Worldcup, which has an additonal hi-speed shim-stack, and shimmed low speed compession. TheLex said:Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the Ride basically just a longer travel, dual crown Pike? All of the adjustments are the same, right?
Just get an air top cap and run the stock spring w/ air preload for fine adjustments, that way you can go way soft if need be like on Big Bear style sandy courses.ufdff15 said:What the rider weight range for the stock spring is on the team? My Team should be in next week I weight around 215 geared up would the stock spring be good for me or would i need some thing more firm?
Seeing I live in the Northeast I don't think my bike will be seeing any Big Bear like courses. But that top cap might work.Bicyclist said:Big Bear style sandy courses.
Yes, but the spring rate is too soft. Hardest spring last year (2005 model x-firm) is 25lb, this years x-soft is 30lb. So unless you are super, super light it won't work..:Jeenyus:. said:Kinda on topic here, do any of you know where springs from an 05 Boxxer WC will work with an 06 team? (without any mods)
Udi did a thread on this, if its the oil leaking between the floodgate and blue comp knob the fix is easyWell, i guess since everyone is bringing up their different boxxer problems/ideas to the table, i might as well post my query here:
okay, a few days ago i was riding some pretty chilled terrain, nothing too testing for my 06 Boxxer Team (that i take good care of btw), i started noticing some sort of leaking noise from the top of the adjsutment leg, somewhere near the topcap, or (this is my best guess) the area between the floodgate knob and the blue compression knob. Anyway, my day finished there as a mate broke his arm and ook him to the hospital.
Today i went to the local dh track without thinking too much about my problem. By the end of the day, the leaking noise was getting worse and worse and mor oil ws coming out from the afore mentioned area...i don't mean profuse amounts of oil, but enough to make my finger glisten.
I called it a day and stuck the bike on the bike rack on the boot of the car, by the time i got home, some oil had managed to blow its way onto the frame (because of the iwnd resistance during the drive home)...
needless to say, at first it was just making a weird noise, then it made more noise and started leaking a bit. Now it makes the noise even when i press on the forks lighlty AND the oil seems to flow out even more easily then before.
Sorry for the super long descriptive post, but i need an answer:
what's wrong with my boxxer? anyone had this problem?
cheers guys!
How many revolutions is that Udi? Mine doesn't appear to click. Not like the LSC one does anyway.and 5 clicks in from all the way out on the floodgate.
Turn it slowly, it should click. It's got a detent ball mechanism inside the cartridge. If you can't feel anything though, i'll check mine for turns when I get home from work. It'll be about 1 turn in from all the way out at a rough guess.How many revolutions is that Udi? Mine doesn't appear to click. Not like the LSC one does anyway.
I don't agree. If you'r talking a difference between 20 degrees, then not much difference.Finally - changing LSC settings for weather is again unneccessary. In fact, it's going to be detrimental if anything - as I stated earlier, the difference between clicks is huge, and chances are you'll end up with a setting that's too much or too little. Given its small volume, the motion control oil warms up quite quickly regardless of the weather, so I think it's best to find a setting that works and stick with it.
