3/22/2014 8:34am also a new brake rotor and an all black monarch shock in that photo. hans dampf tires aren't exactly "xc". maybe it's light duty trail as well. is that a specialized camber?

sounds like you got the gist of it. don't think there's much else to get. did you expect to learn about the chamois pad? haha. i think this stuff has its place. some packless riders may love it.

your medium ibis isn't just "unfashionably" short, it is short. while a longer stem could help you feel more comfy, you'd be far better off on a longer frame. if you feel good with a 70mm, check out the reach numbers on your current rig and be sure to go 15-25mm longer on the next, then swap for the 50mm stem. you'll be happy you made the switch. in the short term you could slap those 740+ bars on with the 50mm stem. increasing bar width while decreasing stem width effectively feels the same reach wise since your arms and...

"The recommendation is i think right for most people" bingo. this video was pretty clearly made for most people, not midgets or shaq look-a-likes. it's a recommendation and a qualified one at that. don't have a coronary.

ever put a timer on it? where'd they claim to be more agile? shredder: bmc's findings back up your statement about tight slow-speed areas. check the pumptrack style trail results. doubt they'd build a bike that was slower if speed was their concern especially after testing all of them. i like how it's broken down by type of terrain. more "science" than we've seen elsewhere. 435mm stays is impressive. that's only 5mm longer than the enduro 29.

LTrumpore Liked a product review Tested: e*thirteen Guidering M
6/26/2013 2:49pm
by Lee Trumpore Just one year ago, SRAM rewrote the book on mountain bike drivetrains with the introduction of their XX1 system. Almost immediately, riders started asking for aftermarket manufacturers to adopt aspects of the design in hopes of both increasing available options and reducing the rather hefty price tag. e*thirteen wasted no time answering the call with the new Guidering M, a modified chainring with alternating tooth widths designed to aid with chain retention. Guidering M Highlights Optimized for 11-speed, but 10-speed compatible Maximized tooth width to maximize engagement Ring chamfer facilitates secure chain engagement, even at extreme angles...
