You don't have to apologize to anyone - this is how ya figure out what you like. I have Fox, RS and Manitou - like them all though I'm super careful w/ Fox and its near impossible to fully service at home w/o weird tools while RS & Mani aren't. Anyway - ya like what ya like and if people don't like that... who cares. I'm not looking for a fleet of back-patting comments here so be honest, that's all this is - talk.

I know this is battling a windmill, but still... Everything flexes. A hardtail, a rigid bike, the wheels, the front triangle, the fork, EVERYTHING. The thing is, the amount the rear triangle of a hardtail (or the amount a flex stay of an XC bike) flexes and impacts the 'suspension' performance of everything is negligible to what a suspension system does (flex stay or otherwise) travel and/or force control wise. So the effect the flex stay itself has on suspension performance vs. any other design with a link back at the axle can be ignored. Even more so, the twanginess...

I got some new tires, inserts, tape, and sealant. Kryptotals, which ended up being some of the tightest beads I’ve ever tried to put on. Front went on well. Back broke two tire levers. The second broke as the tire went on, so I had to crack it open to get the lever piece out. Got some sealant in, and tried pumping it up. And tried again, and again and again and again. I couldn’t get it to seat. Let it sit in the sun, used some soapy water, everything. Finally, finally the bead was seated and it held air...

- One loyal customer had just purchased a new high end road bike, did a few rides and called in complaining of BB/drivetrain clicking. They weren't technically competent to troubleshoot over the phone so they brought the bike in. Roughly an hour drive each way. Bike goes in the stand and we immediately noticed that the front derailleur cable crimp was bent out and ticking the crank every revolution. We shorten the cable, bend it back and send the customer back out into the world. - Bashed my knuckles straight into the top of a sharp road bike chainring while...

I’ve purchased 2 pair tpu tubes from alibay, one for my epic and the other is used on my road bike. So far really satisfied. Wonder how these are different for 3x the price.

I could imagine using this on my ebike, if it could be wired to the main battery. Beyond that, for me it does not really solve any problems, since the cable actuated posts all work very well, regardless if it is the OneUp v3, v2 or even the old v1. Also very satisfied with thhe oem posts Specialized specs their bikes with, they are robust and extremely reliable.

i've run most of the brakes tested (not the maven) and absolutely love the test. my personal winner is the dominion, which i'm still running. (a4, ditch t4) i agree on the verdict. needed some days to get used to the light lever feel. once you're used, this brake feels absolutely save on slippery conditions as the light lever feel and modulation goes hand in hand. mix this with the aboslute braking power it's easy to switch between brake force through the front or rear. for example entering a slippery corner with lots of roots. great learning curve for modulating...

6/21/2024 12:53am Same happened to me yesterday. I resolved the situation by adjusting the lever throw screw toward the negative. I’ll play around more to find the sweet spot, as love these brakes.

Reasons why Red Bull was better: 1) It was free and easy to view. 2) Because it was free more people watched it. 3) We saw more racing. Whilst the addition of Junior Finals coverage is a positive, the reduction to a 10 woman/30 man finals means we are now paying less race runs than ever before. 4) Red Bull's graphics were better. The virtual straight graphic was useful. The wiggly line graphic is pointless. 5) Some of the WBD camera position/type choices are terrible. The overhead drone shots at Ft William were like watching Google Maps. 6) Current coverage...

Having Aaron in the booth has saved the commentary.If it was Ric and Cedric I would'nt watch at all. Ric has'nt got any better this season, he is just not very good in the booth. I mute any time they cut to Josh or the other person. If 'official' means bland generic and corporate......then yes it's more official. Blurry drone footage is pointless. Feels like less track coverage than RB. Not televising semis feels like a way to cut the field without cutting the field (a lot of teams/riders will pull out due to lack of coverage next year) and...

Apparently Trickstuff let their patent lapse or there was some issue with their patent while this underwent development, not sure on the details but just a rumor I read online. I've watched the teardown video and I wouldn't go out and say its a Trickstuff carbon copy. Also not sure why you think I wouldn't buy parts from Taiwan? I'm just looking for the best product for the best price, I also just purchased the Lollipop driver set directly from 711L in Taiwan after hearing about them from the PB podcast. While I don't ethically agree with everything China does...
