Skorp Added a reply to The Internet Was Wrong: Short Chainstays Suck*
1/29/2017 9:03pm I've had 4 modern DH bikes, two with short chainstays and two with long. I find that when i had my Devinci Wilson Carbon 2013 and my current Scott Gambler 710 2016, i tend to jump over more of the rough stuff. When i had my Nukeproof Scalp 2012 and A Giant Glory 0 2015 i just deathgripped and plowed...

Its more common to have most normal lenghts of j-bend spokes in stock and maybe some lenghts of straighpull. If i get the derailleur in the wheel and break some spokes it will be a...

1/30/2016 3:11am I forgot to mention, i own a Giant Glory with the same wheelset, 240S hubs, EX471 rims but with SuperCompetition spokes. I have been really surprised how much these can handle. I'm selling the Glory, as i only use it in parks.. My enduro bike handle that stuff easily if i dont have bad CrossRoc wheels Since the lighter EX471...
Skorp Added a reply to Should Enduro Be a Riding Type?
1/2/2016 10:19am I rode an enduro competition this autumn, and i realized, i never ride this fast for so long. Normally i take a break every 1min-2min of descent. So now i have a day a week out in the woods where i specifically train for enduro. Ride at an ok pace uphill, have a quick breathingbreak and give it the beans...
