Some food for thought… let’s assume each leg is a cylindrical joint where it can slide linearly and rotate around the axis of said cylinder. A cylindrical joint on its own is equivalent to four points of contact. Six points of contact fully define the position of something in space. Two cylindrical joints is eight points of contact. Both right side up and upside down forks are technically over constrained and rely on flex and/or bushing clearance to move smoothly. In the world of aligning linear rails with bearing cars, you pretty much always have to float in at least...

So is poor bushing fit and chassis bind now a "good thing"? Saying you don't notice bushing bind in a fork that has never been ridden without the bushings binding is pretty funny. https://www.pinkbike.com/news/comment-fork-alignment-and-friction-in-th…

If Hans Rey and GT can part, Bulldog has no chance with redbull moving forward.

Rulesman Hambini Diaz [I’ve redacted my comment about Dale Stone because I’ve seen two of his videos and that’s not enough to draw an informed conclusion] These are all content creators who seemingly never have anything nice to say about the big companies. According to them, everything’s terrible all the time and they’re the only ones calling it out, the voice crying out in the wilderness. I agree that the big companies do things that suck and that drive me crazy, but if you can’t ever say anything nice about the bigs, even when they notch a win? I have...

Agreed on all counts. If it's repeatable, it's as valid as it can be, but it's not a very meaningful target in itself, it's a byproduct of having the necessary spring rate for the loads you put on the bike and the ride quality you're looking for. Worrying about the precision of the sag measurement like that is utterly pointless if you're ignoring the factors that actually matter when selecting spring rates. On that note, we have a few different ways that we calculate spring rates for the Telum on any given frame (tuninghub.vorsprungsuspension.com) - if you know what you...

Hard to take a guy serious that rides Kendas.

Your onto something, but I just refuse to believe that someone wearing an all white kit, googles and half shelf, with a hip pack, on a DH bikes, knows much of fuck all. Jokes and fashion aside, Rulezman is a knowledgeable dude, and I appreciate what he brings to the sport, but this is just totally unnecessary. The absolute best way to measure sag, is to use a telemetry system like BYB and look at dynamic ride height. Second to that, seated on level ground, cos its free and repeatable, and tune from there.
