coregrind Liked a comment about bike check Trek Slash Flight Attendant
7/25/2022 8:47am I just completed the first ride on it. That was 20+ miles with about 1200’ of climbing and much more descending. I decided to use Automatic instead of Manual. Even with Automatic there is still some setup required but that’s easy to work through. On the trail, I could hear the system switching modes frequently and making adjustments. The noise didn’t bother me but the mode light was a bit distracting as I found myself looking at it with each mode change. There is the option to run it as Blackout and I’ll likely try that next so there’s minimal...

yzedf Added a reply to WC DH Racing's Future is Uncertain, Can We Do Anything To Stabilize It?
7/22/2022 5:48am If the bike brands aren’t making and selling a DH bike why would they bother with a team, especially if the union thing happens and they have to start paying a living wage?

7/21/2022 7:54pm When Cannondale was experimenting with their last DH bike I shared a ride on a lift with one of their engineers. I made a comment about how if it came to market I would buy one (they are only ~1hr from me) but that I didn’t see it being worthwhile for them to go through all that effort to then...

jessemelamed Liked a reply to forum topic EWS Coverage & the overall ROI for companies sponsoring enduro racers
6/17/2022 2:07pm I have wondered this for a while as well. If I'm allowed to say it, being the one who is doing it, I think it's insane how fast we ride gnarly terrain after only one look at it. It makes for loose riding and wild moments, and this is why I have thought Vital Raws in the past were sweet. Unfortunately those moments are hard to catch on camera as there is so much track that we race. More cameras would be ideal, I feel like last year we had a lot more camera's out on track getting footage for...

6/17/2022 12:29pm Buddy of mine works for a brand. Only thing stopping them from leaving Enduro is uncertainty around the DH coverage next year. Otherwise bang for the buck, EWS is a very poor investment.

6/17/2022 11:57am No. Traded my v8 f150 for a 4cyl Accord a couple years ago. Seats fold down and a XL 29er Doctahawk fits in the back with only one wheel off. Headed out for a trip in a few weeks and I should get close to 40mpg.

4/12/2022 2:28pm I got some of these last year when they first came out and they have been great. They replaced free rider and free rider pros I have used for years. I see no need to go ever go back to 5 10. I have no glue issues with the soles either so far. They still look almost new and dirt wipes off easy with a wet rag. Trails, jumps, pump track, and indoor at Rays MTB park has been all good.

4/12/2022 7:16am Avalanche sells the parts for the CR to get rid of the needle. $34.95 but it does replace the entire end cap.
