Added bike check Kona Process X DL
4/1/2021 6:01pm
"Value" is so subjective, especially when compared to the direct to consumer brands. I'd argue that there is a tremendous amount of value missing for the consumer on those dtc bikes that extends well beyond what derailleur is spec'd. Also, if you haven't owned one of their bikes in over 8 years how do you know they are lackluster? I've owned a bunch of bikes in that time span from Santa Cruz, Yeti, Devinci, and Kona and the Konas are as good as any of them (IMHO) and more fun than most of them.

Hey StudBeefpile, this is Charlie Sponsel. I live in Silverdale and I'm on the board of Evergreen Westsound. I'm helping lead an Evergreen work team to "flowify" the trail Derailed right now, and I'd love to hear your feedback more in detail. Our goal was to make this blue beginner flow trail more fun for beginners and for expert riders, too. Sounds like you're not a big fan of the changes that are happening at Port Gamble. Please contact me at charliesponsel@gmail.com or, even better, give me a call at 503-819-XXXX. We always appreciate feedback, and even more than feedback...

Never wrapped a frame. Ride them til the wheels fall off. Hah Honestly never seen a buyer who was like "I was gonna buy your bike but this guy's doesn't have scratches so I'm buying it". But I also realize thr world is full of people far more anal retentive who sleep better knowing their baby is bubble wrapped. It's all good.

I'm disappointed that you hold this viewpoint Jeff. If it does nothing then why are you affected by it? It does something for me. While I'm not black, I've been at the receiving end of racist remarks. A friend hated the Chinese and said they all should be bombed and killed. Even if I wasn't part Chinese I couldn't let a remark like that go. In the end though, no one else from my group of friends stood up for me so I left. When Commencal or any other bike brand "virtue signals" like this, it gives me hope that...

Dogboy Added a reply to How do you clean/lube your chain?
9/9/2020 11:21am This is what I do as well, never run the chain through a cleaner or soak it in solvent. Wipe clean and lube. I'm a fan of Dumonde Tech lube.

this varies widely based on how dry your climate is. my strategy probably doesn't work for somebody who lives in the PNWet. that said: modern chains come pre-impregnated with grease. you will never get lube back into the places that grease is once it is washed out. so, in order to preserve that grease, I only really lube the rollers, and i really only wipe the chain with a cloth to get dirt off, with maybe a little solvent sprayed only on the cloth to get dirt to break free easier. I have gotten much better chain life since i...
