MoldyMTB Added a reply to Annoying Hand Issues
5/11/2026 7:06pm Yes I recently upgraded my gloves and they fit FAR better, pretty much as you are describing. I still get a bit of bunching though, which makes me think it isnt the gloves so much as how im holding the bars. I really feel like it might be a cockpit setup thing, perhaps i just need to put the time...

5/11/2026 5:44pm To help clarify, i have uploaded an image to show where my issues are happening. Gloves will bunch up there, and i think the skin in that area is getting pinched between the handlebar and the rest of my hand.

I used to get this where my hand was rubbing on the outer lock ring. Switching to push on grips and grips with just the inner lock ring resolved the issue for me.

So like, between your finger and the grip is there your gloves bunch? It seems most riders prefer a thin grip, but I’ve found a thicker grip to be beneficial. Might help if that’s your issue. odi rogues have been good for me.

2 things. So I used to use lock ons and tried slips on and I cant get back. Theyre muuuch better. I prefer the Renthal Kevlars personally. The other thing is backsweep and upsweep can make a huge difference. Renthal is one of the few companies with a 7° backsweep and if I go to 8° or more I get severe wrist pain and pain in my pink knuckle region. I just have hands that want to be pointing straight on. May need to try different setups.

5/10/2026 10:40pm I'm still fairly new to mountain biking, and this season I have been riding way more than ever before. This has introduced two hand issues im hoping to figure out. So the first problem I'm having, is while gripping the handlebars on longer descents, my glove will bunch up in the area on opposite side of my knuckles and can...

4/25/2026 4:55pm Haha this one deffs saw a full season, perhaps a bit more use than i was able to see when i purchased it. BUT the bike shop i got it from is world class in terms of customer service, and any issues i spotted were fixed at no cost - so i cant complain! Haha they ended up replacing the...

This should have all the info you need (even if you're using a different brand cranks or chainring, you can see the diagrams and torque values): https://docs.sram.com/en-US/publications/5jblJ4SRpeHwjcuWG1vPy4/eagle-t… https://docs.sram.com/en-US/publications/5jblJ4SRpeHwjcuWG1vPy4/eagle-t…

MoldyMTB Started a new thread Bosch SX Chainring Replacement
4/24/2026 10:43pm Total noob question here — I've never changed a chainring on any bike, let alone an e-bike. I have a 2025 Transition Regulator SX that's due for a new chainring, (i think) I've got the correct replacement chainring. Before I dive in, I want to make sure I understand the specifics of the Bosch Performance Line SX setup so I...

MoldyMTB Added a reply to Brake Caliper Alignment Tips?
4/16/2026 2:44pm ah well at least thats a bit reassuring knowing its potentially a rotor issue and not something im doing incorrectly. I have watched lots of videos and they always seem to make it look easy - but i follow their process to a T and dont get the same results haha. Looking at all the other responses here, it seems...

4/15/2026 4:00pm dang so it really is that huh? So in addition to bottoming out the shock, the frame is also flexing a few mm up to the seat? Damn thats some serious impact.

MoldyMTB Started a new thread Brake Caliper Alignment Tips?
4/15/2026 3:58pm Still fairly new to wrenching, especially on brakes. I'm struggling to get my calipers aligned and could use some tips from those more experienced. The main issue: constant rotor rub. I'll get them aligned and seemingly rub-free, but after a ride the rubbing comes right back. This is happening on two different setups: Shimano Deore caliper Hope Tech 4 V4...

MoldyMTB Started a new thread What makes this noise?
4/10/2026 8:45pm I have heard this sound in a handful of different DH racing videos, and always wondered what exactly causes it. I found a Pinkbike video that is a great example, the very first clip. Ronan sends a huge gap and seems to bottom out, and the bike makes a fart noise. It definitely sounds like the tire is rubbing on...

MoldyMTB Added a reply to Vivid Air IFP Pressure
4/8/2026 9:58pm Hmm, I guess I'm just an odd ball haha. I always prefer to have easy access to everything that can be changed or adjusted. As for my vivid, according to the sticker on the box - it was shipped out of the RS factory in 2024, so perhaps it is fine but I wouldn't be surprised if it has lost...

4/8/2026 10:32am It's annoying that it uses a shrader valve, but requires that weird adapter as well. Would be so nice for shocks to just have normal ways to fill IFPs, like dvo does it.
