My friend got a 225x75 Trunion and I believe it was CS50 and RL40

Hey Guys! Replying to some comments and adding mine: I am just parted ways with my Formula Cura 4 brakes. As per many websites, some rotor sizes are 2.3mm, like the 203mm size, but some sites state the 203mm is 2.0mm thick.. I am speaking of their Monolitic rotors. As I found out the 180mm rotor was only like 1.8 or 1.9 thick. This is why I always felt longer lever throw on my Cura 2 and later Cura 4 on the rear too. I bought a TRP 2.3mm rotor for the rear, also 180mm (Niner Rip9 RDO accepts 180...

meh, is what i feel when riding plenty of other bikes vs Evil, which, is not the best, and not the one everyone will like, of course, but nothing rides the same, for good or bad it does not matter, i'm aware it's just a linkage driven single pivot, but they've done a hell of a job with it, and to this day i still think it's great despite all the good stuff that came out in the recent years.

Bring back the Bottlerocket and give it a little more travel. I think that namesake deserves a return at some point. I know I LOVED mine. Such a fun and versatile bike. But apparently for it to be that style of bike, it has to start with the letter 'S'?

The downvotes on perfectly normal posts started back a few months ago when some idiot made some idiotic comments and got destroyed. He's been down voting everything he reads since then.

Looks like a 6D ATR-2.

I have the new RPC, I ended up having to order 2 sizes to get it right. It fits super snug compared to other fox helmets. I also ended up ordering thinner cheek pads, which don't come with the helmet even for the high price tag, to get the fit perfect. I settled on a Medium with the thin cheek inserts but still have a bit of chipmunk cheek going on. I've got it fully broken in now after a few races and whistler trip and its much comfier but was not that great out of the box initially. On...

I’m a big proponent of moto helmets these days. They’re a little heavier and hotter, but you get accustomed to it pretty quickly. Their safety standards are generally more rigorous than bicycle standards. The new European standard ECE22.06 actually includes low speed and rotational force testing. Anecdotally, I’ve had a couple of huge crashes relatively recently. One was in my Fox V3 RS where I went headfirst off a 15ft cliff and bounced off a tree on the way down. I cracked the helmet in 4-5 locations but had no concussion. The second crash was in a TLD Stage which...

moto vs dh helmets is intresting used to be more cut and dry years ago about the differences in impact speeds etc but now......... that should be dug into more definitely would be interested to know more with research behind it of one vs the other

I've always been a fan of TLD, I've gone through maybe 6 of their helmets in my lifetime from the D2 up to the D4. I've unfortunately gone through a D4 and a Fox RPC in the last two years with both shells cracking. They both did their job, but the RPC seemed to transmit significantly more force through the foam and I felt the effects of the impact pretty heavily. The D4 on the other hand felt like the multiple layers of foam crushed in a way that slowed the impact significantly and I had no ringing in my...

I don't have experience with those helmets specifically, but I'll add another to your list. I'm really impressed with the Leatt MTB 8.0 I got this season, the fit is perfect for me, it's built really well, and feels very solid and protective (totally subjective I know). It can also be had for around half price right now if you look around. I think it has some moto certifications and feels almost like a hybrid MTB/moto helmet. I wouldn't want to pedal far in it but it was great all summer in Whistler when I was riding the park.

I don't have a ton to add to this conversation other then my own experience. I have a D4 polyacrolite and my riding buddy has a fox RPC. We're both quite happy with our helmet choices. Me personally, I made my decision based on fit, I thought both helmets were quite well made with regards to fit/finish/features. I had the previous generation RPC which got stolen and I just didn't replace it because I wasn't doing a ton of park riding for a few years. Once it was time to replace it, I tried them both on and the D4...

This wireless drivetrain debate is silly, when your new bike comes with transmission (which it likely will) I very much doubt you will be clamoring to get something cable actuated.

1) Worst ergonomics ever? The pod is fine... literally a button for up and down and plenty adjustable. Took me ten mins to dial in and never thought about it again. 2) Transmission clutch is great, completely silent.. old AXS quite literally known for bad clutch issues... 3) Weight is fine, cranks are a little heavy but there's other crank options (which I use). Everything else is on par with XT (derailleur heavier, cassette lighter, balances out) The pricing is frustrating which is understandably why it gets the hate. But saying the performance isn't best in class completely fried. It's...

I really don't understand the wireless hate. It's no worse than cable mechs in my experience. If anything j like it a little more and find it shifts faster. Less cables look nicer. It's just the evolution of bikes, no reason to hate it.
