Too bad designers moved away from the superior design of pull shocks. Make a DYAD home serviceable and I'm buying tha thing tomorrow.

It feels really stable, but not sluggish or like a freightrain. Because of the centered position it corners better than my previous bikes. With the 10mm stem it feels comfortable. Because it's a warranty frame i could not change the headtube, dus with 50mm rise and the Aerozine stem the stack is pretty high.

Like and subscribe. It's great. Hello, Vital. You're watching 17 questions with Greg Man. Let's begin. [singing] >> How many times have you asked Jordy for setup advice at the Fox camp you're at? I did ask Jordi to set my fork up. These Fox guys have so much knowledge on everyone's sitting. So, they're going to put you into like a really good spot. But one thing I did ask, he he just didn't do I just like I need to go a little bit firmer on the on the fork and and he didn't do that, which is...

that explains the 545 reach! I'm only 1.76, i'm thinking about 505 reach since the stem will be zero or negative even. Now tell me, how does it feel with that long chainstays? Do you ride more upright, less weight on the hands? Don't you want more stack height?

Longer rear centers of course! Really though a longer rear helps quite a bit when climbing and climbing plays an outsize role in xc performance. Personally I think there is really something on the table there.

This is a very nice build and very trending geometry. Let me ask you, how tall are you? I'm almost ordering mine from Marino too and I'm on the edge of the reach. Cheers!

New rear dropouts could lower the BB, and slacken even more the head tube!

It will depend on the quality of the material they use. I've got the early 4 pot "hope" model from them, and they spread apart 0.05mm while clamping hard. It looks nothing on paper, but you can see the flex. Flex really hinders performance of a caliper, that's why most of them are bigger. This new sram is example of...
Do the bleed from the caliper to the lever, with all the path from the bottom up being as vertical as possible. This is to ensure there is no bubble. The variable bite point might have to do with bent rotor. If the rotor is flexible, it could shake the pads apart and now you have a longer free stroke...

Quite forgetable and reliable transportation they have. Trains go cheap compared to air, car or boats, lets you have your bag and bike with you. Compare that to brazil. I have to spend 2 months of minimun wage to get to the nearest bike park for 2 days, and come back.

I think the lefty still is not fully developed. Cedric Gracia raced a 160mm version of it on 4x. And those races were savage!

There is no statement in here about it being an air cartridge or just air piston inside. It just says that it's on air spring, instead of metal spring.

Guys, let's the lawyers discuss about IP and stuff, let's just enjoy the parts we are getting. Zrace, WestBiking, ZTTO, Akantor, Tanke, Onirii, Rong Lun, III Pro are all different from each other. no one looks exact carbon copy of the main brands. I've got a pair of RongLun brake levers that look similar to magura or older shimanos, but...

7000 series can absolutely be welded. All of Knolly's bikes are 7000 series and I can confirm they are definitely welded, great piece of kit tooSmile

with how polished the inside of the lug is, there seems to have no galvanic corrosion, just improper technic. The lug should've been roughed up on the inside with 150 grit, so the glue would have something to adhere to.

Lotus cars. They are solely held by glue and some rivets. No welds. If the glue is the right for the job, the application is done the right way (most important part), the results will be predictable. Pole bycicles are held solely by glue, but there are 4 fins on each side to increase contact area of the glue. My...
