I experienced that, yes - I think the HSR tunes they offer are a bit light, might want to try and go up a tune.

So ochain or chain device does not change the anti rise effect. Rotor size does not either. Leverage ratio does not change or effect AR. A flip chip on brake arm could change AR. Really just 10mm can change it. I have experiment a bunch with @Vessel_bike_project on this. He made a float brake arm for my V5 and for custom steel gearbox DH bike.

Kona Stab had that as far back as at least 2004, two mounting points (the other one is right on top of the bottom bracket): I remember reading about Fabien Barel experimenting with the position depending on a track, and i've tried the same on my '08 Stab. Of course, I havent felt a slightest difference back then.

Evolution in Whistler has been great every time I've been. The bikes are incredibly well kept.

beeeom Liked a reply to forum topic Is there a new TR11?

9/1/2026 7:04pm
Has anyone spent any time on the 2026 TR11? It's like a desert out there when it comes to reviews... Looking at the XL TR11 as an option to replace my R3 Session (mullet & -1° cups). Mostly riding steep, reasonably fast, technical shuttle trails. I'm a bit under 6'2 so I'm kinda in between sizes. I've bounced around on a couple larges and they felt way too small, so thinking XL with the short cups and slack setting Anyone have any experience with this bike?

I've had a set of the wolftooth ones on my dh bike for a few months now. Did absolutely nothing for hand fatigue, but did save my pinky finger from getting squashed by a tree at sunpeaks.

Gopro officially goes through with their merger according to PB. I know it had been speculated about here. I had hoped there would be a bankruptcy discount but now unless I pretend to be a warlord I may be out of luck.

Red Bull never ran or promoted the races like WB do. They just provided broadcasting for the UCI, who ran/funded/promoted the World Cup series.

Judging by the last line in the press-release " Destinations interested in getting involved are invited to reach out to enduro@crankworx.com . " , they don't actually have a full calendar in place or much at all in place? Maybe just being opportunistic? Or maybe I'm just being cynical?

Live broadcasting isn't required for success, and in my opinion gets in the way of producing quality enduro race content. I used to happily wait a few days to watch the EWS recap videos during the glory days, as others have said.

"You will always have pressure buildup before the preloaded shims open up, and on top of that, in my opinion, digressive rebound tunes are just downright scary on jumps. (Would apply for the R85 rebound tune on the D1.)" The R85 is the most progressive rebound tune you will see in a mainstream damper. Yes it is preloaded with a ring shim but that doesn't automatically mean its digressive. Most of the preloaded rebound stack Rockshox have made are so stiff they don't open, as you mentioned - which makes them progressive. They have always used dished pistons or ring...

A 1 metre drop gives you a contact speed of: v = sqqrt(2*g*h) v = sqqrt(2*9.81*1) v = 4.4 m/s. This speed is obviously blunted by the tyre and everything else flexing (including the rider), but that's the limit case for a flat 1m drop. If the landing is up the impact speed is higher. If the landing is down it's lower. Here's a tracker video (not mine) showing 2.5m/s on an average trail with a small drop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5GtG4Fl7BI Dampers spiking has to be pretty bad to be directly read off a dyno chart. You have to read between the...

The Sunday looks amazing. I'm also curious to see what the kinematics on the Garage Bike version worked out to be, because for all its praise, the OG Sunday had a pretty odd leverage curve with a big hammock in the last half of travel. I'm guessing you addressed that! Since you asked, my suggestion is that you try to...

Good times in Val Di Sole this past weekend. Thanks to the Rock Shox team having the bike on display all week, it has plenty of drool on it. What modern replica do you want to see next?
