Short answer, yes, it's weird. Having a lower profile tire up front with a meatier tire on the back will lead to your front wheel breaking traction before the rear. If those are the only two tires you have I would recommend swapping them front to back. Front Nevegal, back Booster. That will be an easier to control combo. Having a rear tire that has a less aggressive drift point is far safer and easier to control than the opposite. I hope that helps!

The change in specs will definitely have a bigger impact than whta the article says. Especially the fork: RS has a very simple damper (self bleeding design with no compression shims) where the 40 has a not adjustable compression but is equipped with proper shim stack and offers definitely more support. The rear shock is again another story with X2 using a twin tube design offering more sensitive begginning stroke and less affected by heat build up.

With practice and the correct tools (large round trash barrel and good tire lever(s)) mounting up a CushCore is actually not bad at all.

The wear patterns are the same as any non splatter. The color fades a little with use and is not as crisp when it is dirty, obviously. But with a wash the color looks new again.

The initial look is similar, for sure, but there are differences. It rolls faster, for one. The cornering knobs have the innovative siping too. There are many other subtle differences too: Knob surface area, shape and position etc.

k.shiz Liked a product review At $2,699, Is the Airborne Plague Really *Sick*?

Airborne Bicycles, the direct-to-consumer bike brand out of Ohio, has been in the game for over twenty years and for 2020, they have a new, 27.5-inch-wheeled enduro bike dubbed the Plague. Airborne has always focused on affordable two-wheelers and considering the $2,699 price tag of the Plague, they've kept their eye on the budget-minded prize. We wanted to see what a bike that looked fun on paper, with minimal impact to our stack of paper, could do. Airborne Plague Highlights 160mm rear travel with RockShox Monarch RT Debonair 170mm front travel with RockShox Lyrik Select Charger RC Ultimate Debonair SRAM...

7/6/2015 12:39pm Uh, bringing in the non-argument of lift access is the real dumb issue here. Namely, lift access parks are either on private land, or private permitted land. They can allow whatever the hell they want on their terrain, including full blown 450 MX bikes if they feel so inclined. The issue with e-bikes is that they are MOTORIZED vehicles. I have no problem with e-bikes at all, provided they are used in areas reserved for motorized vehicles.
