10/1/2025 7:30am BYB or anyone, have you guys had any luck using your system on bikes with shock tunnels? like Santa Cruz or Forbidden? I'd love to slap some sensors on my Dreadnought V2 but my old MI system wouldn't fit.

9/23/2025 10:55am Not going to lie, if this works as well as they say then I'm buying one immediately, along with a full face if they ever make it. This is incredibly cool tech.

9/21/2025 8:44am I mean, I'll go on record and say I much prefer wireless shifting and have been extremely happy with my Gx Transmission drivetrains. That being said, I really don't give a flying monkey's banana on what people run, and I really wish people would stop being so damn angry that wireless shifting exists. I think people miss just how easy...

8/29/2025 9:07am It is my opinion that 3% "added" friction because fork misalignment is probably negligible because 3% is. Let's be honest, in a dynamic ride situation, the various level of twisting and buckling forces applied to a fork is going to misalign it. You referenced fox's floating air piston and the whole goal of reducing friction in an air spring; stating...

8/29/2025 7:45am Update on some Maven bleeding: Tried the pinner cups/overnight bleed/dangling caliper with bleed blocks in on 3 sets of mavens and the improvement is dramatic. At this point I'm fairly convinced that the mineral oil formula that SRAM is using holds onto air a bit more than some other formulas (like magura/shimano), and that degassing the mineral oil is a...

8/28/2025 7:52pm "Some food for though" and then proceeds to give a huge Thanksgiving meal. Are you telling me fox engineers might be smarter than the average bear when it comes to sliding things up and down?

8/28/2025 12:28pm I'd bet you dollars to donuts that the air pressure changes you see are more due to the air temp inside your fork than the outside atmospheric pressure. Ideal gas law and all that. The column of air serving as your spring is a closed system, so its not impacted by barometric pressures (however, the air in your lowers for...

8/28/2025 12:20pm Mainly wanted to highlight the following: > I'll be honest, I don't think I've ever felt a difference after a fork lowers service, but maybe my forks aren't dirty enough when I make the change? I'm not that convinced that swapping out just the oil for most folks does all that much, as I think the oil change is mostly...

8/27/2025 12:33pm Are you putting in bleed blocks and winding the contact point out (away from the arrow) or just leaving it as is and slapping on the pinner cups.

8/27/2025 9:30am yeah, I've tried using some Pinner bleed cups and do the lever bleeds like I've done with shimano brakes and it did not go well. I feel like I've only had success with full bleeds. Wanted to see if folks are having some success with lever bleed with syringes and how they are doing it.

8/27/2025 7:29am Has anyone had any luck lever bleeding mavens with just the syringe? I feel like I've tried in the past and it's only made things worse. I was hoping to avoid a full bleed because I am lazy.

8/26/2025 3:03pm This type of set up peaked my interest, mainly since I feel like I'm moving the same way with my 38 with a X2. Do you find yourself running any tokens at all then? How much (as a percentage) would you say you're running over recommended pressure. With a year+ of damper forward setups being available with the improvements with...

8/21/2025 11:49am Not a rumor. They bought MI, dumped a bunch of capital into helping them develop V2 and then pulled the plug a year ago as a cost saving measure. It was a whole.... thing.

8/7/2025 1:31pm the large one goes down basically to the bottom of my rib cage and I'm 1.83m (6') which is about the same as most back protectors on the market. But I agree, for bike park days I use a longer one, but something is better than nothing IMO.

8/7/2025 10:02am I'll chine in with the POC Column VPD. I've used this for a few years and it pretty much my daily driver. I'm a firm believer in wearing back protectors as much as possible after some pretty bad wrecks, and I attribute this pack to saving my spine from a pretty serious issue after a pretty bad wreck I had...

8/6/2025 12:07pm Has anyone actually used the Stiffmaster 500000? Was curious on if it actually did anything meaningful.
