jonkranked Added a reply to Tire inserts - do you run them?
4/2/2026 7:07am i'm in the same region (mid atlantic, southeast PA). blue is my primary mountain and can attest to the rocks. as a bigger guy (225+) that still rides fairly hard cushcore was a revelation for me. after my first day riding DH on them i was never going back. i never ate rims at the same rate as Charlie, but...

3/30/2026 6:42am Looks like RS is about to roll out a pretty big refresh at Sea Otter 👀 Saw a new Lyrik today on one of the latest Habit builds, plus what looks like an updated Vivid Air. The Vivid sticks pretty close to the new coil version in terms of reservoir layout. Lyrik’s getting LinearXL like the new Boxxer, and there are vent valves under the crown too. Definitely some interesting updates coming.

3/29/2026 8:45am 15 years ago we had an athlete turn up with their fit numbers all out of whack, old bike gone back to sponsors etc etc, BUT: they had a sticker prominent on seat tube that was identical to one on my tool box. I managed to print an a3 image of the old bike and translate all the measurements with a pencil and ruler. It took quite a while, but ended up bang on. Saddle height, offset, reach, bar height, stack. All this by hand…

3/27/2026 10:01am Unfortunately I'm an idiot, so I'll answer your question even if it is sarcastic. I found a known value that's easy to measure, the rear brake rotor. I set it to 203mm (as mentioned in a bike check from my memory) 16.2cm = 6.377 inch, rounded up however the app used rounds things and also not a perfect angle. Closest match for phone size would be a Iphone 16/17 pro max at 16.3 cm or a google pixel 9/10 at 6.3 inches. I'm going to go with the iphone 16/17 pro max. I should touch grass.

3/23/2026 7:30am Darkfest 2026 is a wrap, but there's plenty more content to come! Here's the event report from the organizers, along with a set of absolute bangers to drool over while we wait for the official edit to drop as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The dust has finally settled over the farm, the tools are down and the 10th-anniversary of Darkfest presented by Monster Energy has officially gone down as the biggest, fastest, and most festive week in big air history. What started as a massive vision for the Falcon Heavy line and Rocket Launcher landing became a reality through the sheer grit...
