10/30/2025 8:31pm The SV EIGHT is a fully shimmed damper. The newer Transition models have high-rising rate designs....maybe we just needed to get you on a firmer tune. Darren

10/30/2025 7:30am true, after changing frames to the Madonna v3, also the spring recommendation is just very far from Raaw's.. 60lb/in lower... that much that I am overwrriting the valving to a point in between of spring rate to bracket it.. although I am not asking for soft/confortable, no jumps or steep terrain.. the setup is heavily relying on damping, which is...

10/28/2025 7:53pm Curious... Im on the opposite case.. vorsprung recommendation was a way lower spring rate than what I was using, on a spire.... and it's also the case on my Madonna V3 now.. Ihad lots of back and forth with them on this.. the most important setup difference though was rebound... I think I drifted towards slowish the past 2-3 years...

10/26/2025 9:53pm I have not received my new bike yet.. but it comes with transmission XO and AXS reverb.. already have a shopping cart with an Eagle 90 derailleur and shifter.. I think its the most efficient route, from a Shimano fanboy... oh, and also have a oneup dropper on the parts bin, waiting to be fitted ; )

10/23/2025 9:49am I think everyone can do what they want, but a battlefield like this, with 25% of participants physically disabled and therefore unable to earn a living, should not be called a sport. I have the utmost respect for the riding skills of these daredevils on two wheels. But the urge to mutilate oneself for fame and little money has nothing to do with sport anymore, but rather with some kind of pathology that needs to be treated. Now hate and downvote me as much as you want

10/21/2025 8:23am Go for it.. the Infinity EN solves all Enduro bike issues.. same hub, no adapters.., same stem.. low weight.. this one is the same I used on my canfield one.2... and the Spire with the CClink was 90% a DH bike.

10/21/2025 6:09am Having had my Intend fork for a little over a year now, I did have issues with the travelizer. If I changed to either end of the travel I was better off opening it up and setting the travel. I could never get it to "catch" properly at either end of the range. So for that aspect the new design is stellar for me personally. On the other hand I am currently running my fork at 172mm because knowing the front and rear vertical travel is exactly the same makes me irrationally happy.

10/20/2025 10:20pm there are some rumours of the vertebrae affected etc... which need to be confirmed officially.. however after Adolf's recent IG post, let's hope he is in observation to see the evolution of the injury, and that he has a positive prognosis with good probability of full recovery..

10/5/2025 5:46am I think you are not the only one thinking like this.. the issue is that the image of the guys ("media" image of course) is the responsible for that... the truth anyone with a nat champ sleeve coming from a country with strong MTB field is a threat. They may not be able to put it together in WC, cold...
