lev Liked a reply to forum topic Anyone ever worn a hole in a crank arm?
7/20/2021 7:59am
I had some Next carbon cranks develop stress cracks along the length of the arm. Never crashed, just my 100kg heft and pedalling. RF (siverfish in the UK) didn't want to know to begin with, but I kept pressing them. They ended up swapping for some SIXC under warranty in the end. They were nice until I took the end of them off with a pedal strike! I'm now on Turbines, probably like I should have always been! Moral - keep pushing these manufacturers. They sell expensive stuff that should last. You should minmum get a replacement at cost..

Agree, keep the politics and American outrage at one another over on Pinkbike comments. I like Vital because it doesn't have all that bullshit. Hopefully it stays that way.

For all but the nastiest raw double black tech trails I’m perfectly comfortable with my 170/170 bike that has a flip chip. The dh bike just needs to be cleaned up a bit so I can sell it.

iceman2058 Liked a product review Ultra Comfortable Back Protector: Bluegrass Seamless Lite Review
6/15/2021 7:34pm
Last year, we tested the Armour Lite back protector from Bluegrass with good results. Continuing to search for something even more comfortable and minimalistic, the company has just launched the new Seamless series of back protectors, so we thought we should give one of those a spin too. We reviewed it in the May 2021 episode of our Gear Show, you can jump ahead to 5:37 in the video below to see it in action, or keep reading if you prefer that format. Strengths Weaknesses Super comfortable Very stable fit Wide and long coverage of the back Good breathability Pockets...

Running the Spank Spike 800 Race Riser Bar - 800mm x 50mm Rise x 31.8 Clamp. Nothing special but they feel good and come in a lot of different rises.

6/10/2021 6:48pm Which bar are you running? Just picked up a S5 and it’s definitely on the low side stock.

Pinkbike did a review that generated a lot of interest, both good and bad, and it was pulled offline (at the behest of Specialized?) as it had several issues, including that they didn’t seem to know if they were reviewing the 140 or 160 and if it was a mullet. Honestly it seems like the perfect bike for Vital, more about having fun on a more realistic budget. The problem is Specialized decided to do this weird gorilla marketing campaign and ended up with a soft launch of a new brand that pretty much fell flat.
