My mainstays for northeast riding are a 130/140 Stumpjumper for trail riding and a full-on DH bike for park riding. I had been running the Stumpjumper and a Capra for a while, but the overlap was too much to justify having two pedal bikes. I kept the park wheels from my Capra to beef up the Stumpjumper for any full-on...

I've rarely had problems with inserts. As long as you use proper technique. Last shop that I worked at, other mechanics would bring me Cushcores to install for them.

Shut the fuck up about drivetrain efficiency. Holy shit. Go find a different thread.

Camp Alpine on the Jersey side of the Palisades has the goods you are looking for. Would also second Ringwood/Ramapo; there is some brutally techy stuff in there. Jungle habitat is a bit smaller, but an interesting setting, and again, brutal tech. Chimney Rock in boundbrook can be linked together for some really nice ups and downs over big miles...

I run megattacks on my trail bike and park bike with an XL glove size. I like them because they are very soft, longer than average grips, and seem to wear pretty well. I rotate them from the park bike onto the trail bike once the diamond texture fades. Feel great without gloves as well.

I run Cushcore Pro F/R on my park bikes in the summer. North east rocks EAT wheels alive, and they seem to help save the rims from this. I'll still get a good ding here and there, but the rims definitely last longer. The downside is slower acceleration due to the heavier mass, but that's somewhat compensated for by the...

I have it in a few bikes. I WORK AT DT SWISS. I have not ridden o-chain. I live in Western Colorado and basically ride in the 10 degree setting all the time. When I go to the bike park, then I swap to the 20. On my e-bike, it is always in the 10 setting. On my PNW trip last year I swapped depending on where I would ride. Around here, trying the 20 degree at our techy trails, you do get a bit of a thud when riding technical terrain on the analog bike. I haven't noticed that...

Looking into getting a DEG DF kit for my park bike this season, anyone have any experience on them?

Considering that we've got the Marz Shiver, the Manitou Dorado, and the Rockshox RS-1, the statement is completely stupid whatever way you want to swing it.

The venn diagram overlap of "has enough money to mess around with expensive parts and has an expensive bike" and "does not own proper hex keys or a bike stand" is maddening.
