My all-rounder is coming up on a year old and there's nothing on the horizon that I'm itching to swap it out for. A couple of recent suspension and tire updates has me digging it more than ever. 
Post your 2014 rides!
- Thread starter Mo(n)arch
- Start date
I have one of these on order. I've heard they are good for riding down a hill.
Thinking about a new paintjob for the Tues and the dbc-cartridge for the 888 if it fits and is affordable. Might switch the Trailbike but it's really hard to decide if I should just change the frame or buy a complete build. (canyon spectral would be nice but it sucks that it doesn't come with a pike).

Mucho fun for going down a hill.I have one of these on order. I've heard they are good for riding down a hill.
Mine will stay the same for next year, maybe a Push service on the RC4 over the winter.
Wow nice bike!My all-rounder is coming up on a year old and there's nothing on the horizon that I'm itching to swap it out for. A couple of recent suspension and tire updates has me digging it more than ever.

Update:
went for the full saint treatment and swapped the fork out for more enduro-specific riding (also low bb):

BITD when i got my first DH bike - specialized s-works (the first time around) i threw a marz DJ (first gen) on it just so i could ride it until my shiver showed up.
You mean the Palmer DH FSR? My wife had a 20mm Pike on hers for awhile....
that's the one. the one with the d!ck hole by the front triangle shock mount. i wonder if palmer had anything to do with that.

Same rig for 2014, just added a few updates in the last few weeks - chain, cassette, chainring & brake pads. All ready for a summer of shred! ��
My XC whip it has Shimano Zee 1x10sp drivetrain which I totally dig,RF narrow wide chainring is on it's way for where I live a 34t will be enough.
Current - will get swapped for the 2014 frame when they come out.
Building
buying in a couple weeks.

Your scrotum must be really compact for you to feel safe on that bike.My XC whip it has Shimano Zee 1x10sp drivetrain which I totally dig,RF narrow wide chainring is on it's way for where I live a 34t will be enough.
Possible hands free operation of the propedal lever?
That claim is a myth by it's self over the past years with this suspension design,if you do slide of the saddle your scrotum/nuts are safe.You will always land on the top tube instead on the shock

I did that this year but that was on a steep jump when I didn't expect to bottom my shock but yeah it's possible so I hope you aren't doing any jumps on itUnless you slide from saddle and then you drag you feet on the ground with your chest over the bar and you butt sucked under the seat

Just gave her a little freshen up...
Pike Dual Position...shock rebuild/revalve and a set of those light-bicycle rims..dh layup came in just under 450g's each making for a nice light wheelset laced to the DT 240s...
Just got the shock back last night cant wait to ride it...wheels feel way faster in the driveway..
