Zee 11 speed is a mistake ofc. This is 10 speed. Minion DHR? Check once more. HR not DHR. Other parts like NS Bikes or Dartmoor. Godziek Brothers, check them out. ( Dawid Godziek used to ride for Daartmoor, as well as Szymon, for now they are both signed with NS Bikes ) Octane One is a cheaper NS Bikes, this is same brand, just for wayl less money. Accent is well known in Poland and distribute by Velo.pl. Two same pictures? They are not the same, second is added by admin with "BOD" tag. Other pictures will be added...

Push ACS3 MSRP is $389USD including spring - Jenson sell it for $309 WITHOUT spring. Our MSRP is ~$315USD including spring. We use hydraulic anti-bottoming so that you don't have a spring plunger physically impacting an air spring plunger mid travel. There are no moving seals to worry about wearing out, no air seals to leak, and it dissipates kinetic energy instead of storing it and then releasing it again - there's a reason it's easier to tune rebound damping with linear springs than progressive ones. It can provide equivalent bottoming resistance with lower peak forces too, because peak hydraulic...

The Rhythm/Smashpot will feel very similar to the standard 36 yes. The Rhythms still run the Grip damper (rather than the Grip2) which is not quite as adjustable but fundamentally a pretty decent damper. Fox do some weird stuff with their forks though - if raising the travel beyond 160mm ALWAYS call Fox USA first with your serial number to check what the maximum travel is. You may need a new damper tube or you may not - no way to tell other than calling Fox.

Steve, would the performance of the Rhythm with the Smashpot be similiar to the Grip2 Damper with a Smashpot ? and if a persons Rhythm is at 150mm travel, no problem going to 160mm or 170mm without buying anything? (sorry for the hijack)

it can't be that hard to build a reliable and cheap dropper.

I’m a bit surprised the X-Fusion Manic wasn’t included in this comparison. It’s a top performer at a bargain price, with best-in-class reliability. It even has a couple of user reviews on this site (one of which was written by me). Also, what’s the discontinued, problem-plagued Race Face Turbine post doing here?!

Steeper seat tube angles will move the weight forward only whilst seated. Long chainstays will balance the bike out when standing.

FFS, Instagram is out. It's just a stupid Facebook suburb, filled to the brim with showoffs and pseudo motivational phrases. Plus who the heck wants to watch videos in that crappy resolution anymore?

I don't give a damn about EWS winning status and the 76° angle is just as bullshit as with almost evry other bike with a bent and offset seat tube. Which is the whole point of me ranting and being offtopic here. The GT is one of the prime examples of a bike with a wrong geometry.
