eshew Added a reply to Grassroots Enduro... Where Should It Go?
1/23/2026 7:38am If you want to build a base of riders who love Enduro it's clearly time for a miniduro. Limit the races to half the distance or less with half the climbing or less 12.5 miles, 2-2.5k elevation.

eshew Added a reply to Shock mounting hardware Cross compatibility

1/28/2020 2:48pm Ti springs have been out for a while now that the SLS springs are just as light or lighter & less expensive. For Ti bolts, I hate to say it, but I've been getting mine on ebay from China. I normally don't do chinese stuff but the ti bolts I've received have been great.
