DirtyHal Added a reply to Tire inserts - do you run them?
4/3/2026 11:46am Ah ok, maybe Spomer can get you some carbon wheels to test. Side note, if you are $299 curious, these aren't DH wheels but it still seems like a crazy deal for 32H carbon wheels. https://www.ethirteen.com/products/sylvan-race-carbon-e-spec-all-mounta…

DirtyHal Added a reply to Tire inserts - do you run them?
4/3/2026 10:45am Out of curiosity are you destroying carbon wheels or alloy? I'm 225lbs geared up, Slow pro/expert DH rider. I used to run the Cushcore's with DH Tires on various alloy dh wheels. They would all inevitably break. A few years ago I bit the bullet and got some Carbon rims and it has been a game changer for me in...

Dak discussing "tutti Compression, niente Rebound" with the italians at EXT would be top content for sure

9/29/2025 9:53am How is YT going to afford the lawyers to enforce any contract dispute? Also Is it possible for the riders to Lien YT? EDIT* If they are contracted to the Mob and the mob isn't getting Paid could they go after Whitely for their missing funds and then force him to reckon with YT? I see this situation in the...

9/3/2025 9:52am A friend of mine in the Industry told me that he had heard from one of the reps that Orbea was withdrawing their US presence (at least in terms of inventory) due to tariffs. It was one of the reason's I bought my 25' Wild as I was assuming I wouldn't be able to get one easily next year or...

Which headset are you running? I got a 25 wild h30 about a month ago. Awesome bike, headset is definitely annoying though. Plan on swapping brakes out this winter and installing this unit: https://easybikeparts.co.uk/collections/complete-headsets/products/easy…

8/18/2025 1:31pm I had the same question, I looked up the single Gal for E-Enduro and she has two races to her name on roots and rain...ever? I would have thought Kera Linn would have gotten the invite as the National Champ (and maybe she did but couldn't go?).

6/25/2025 8:13am I’m super curious to see how this stacks up against the push fork, a170mm vaia, as well as the intend moto fork. Is it fox’s marketing machine or did they really do something special?

6/24/2025 2:37pm I think the cost will go down eventually as the technology becomes more widespread etc but we're reaching the point where bike geometry and standards have mostly plateaued so it makes sense to have some more expensive options for suspension, brakes etc that can be installed on frames that people are keeping for longer. Also parts seem to last quite...

Im amazed you can read at all tbh I’ll eat a decently sized bite of my hat if Finn leaves specialized. The bike and team setup seem to work for him, and their partnership with Öhlins seems to be a bit more in depth than what other teams have with Fox and RS. Specialized also doesn’t seem to give too much of a damn about sponsor correctness as long as they run Ö suspension and magura brakes and get on the podium. IF he changes it would be for the number 1 spot on a team. But what team could...

People get annoyed because you literally say "I know but I won't tell" like a little school girl. Nobody would care if you knew something and just kept quiet, even if they know for sure that you have the answer. In that case they would respect that you were keeping a secret out of respect to the athletes. But that's not how you choose to live your online life, and I think you know what you're doing, so don't act all surprised when people get mad about your stupid little game.

6/1/2024 9:19am Why do you think ohlins did a split clamp for Bruni then? Not being argumentative but surely there’s a reason other than counting grams.
