brash Liked a reply to forum topic Attn Fellow Suspension Nerds - 180mm Zeb won't get full travel?

6/24/2023 6:11pm

for what it's worth, I'm riding a 38 @ 180mm no spacers and 115psi, Even if I lawn dart an 8 foot drop to flat I'll still have 5mm left in the tank. If sag is fine, cut the O-ring off, it should be renamed the anxiety ring.

Pretty sure it was Stumpy Evo, I would suspect the new Stumpy will be released, too, and would assume it's more important to have those bikes before a new Enduro that shares similar design que's to the Kenevo SL.

Loved it! Our Luana took third! So happy for her! Luana is a multiple Romanian National Downhill and Enduro Champion and also holds a collection of medals in snowboard cross too. She rides since 2016, trains all by herself, tries to race as much as possible and she is one of the nicest people ever. Her last name is Cherecheș and you pronounce it ”KEH-REH-CASH”, not ”churches”.

Saw the new Specialized Stumpy Evo yesterday at sky tavern bike park in Reno, predictably moved away from the cross strut and has same suspension design as the Levo SL. Was a sexy poo brown color, wonder why it hasn't been released yet as it looked like a production bike.

b practice lenzerheide/leogang is up. we recorded a post-lenzherheide show only to have the podcast platform decide to not record anything but 2 hours of black video and flat audio. hence the delay and double-up w/ both lenzer and leogang https://www.vitalmtb.com/features/vitals-b-practice-podcast-lenzerheide…

Sure did. Though I’m not on board with short travel e-bikes personally. If it has a motor it might as well have 160mm plus imo. I was actually hoping for a new sight. But at least there’s no cable tourism

That might be the best looking DH on the circuit!

doesnt the stumpjumper use a digressive damper tune to account for the spring rate of the flex stays?

I like the idea of taking the points from both semi and final, winner has the most points.

Specialized Gravity with the Men's Numbers 1, 3 and 5 in both race results and points. Bruni's the old man on the team: He's either 28 or 29 (not sure of birth date other than year: 1994).

I really like the new format, the semi added another element of excitement for me, see who could hold it together for 2 runs. And I think I got every cents worth of $50 for being able to watch the race with zero commentary, just the statistics, absolutely worth the GCN subsription for that alone.
