    Haha. I had my first reverb hose wrapped around my bar for about 6mo.

    I think I saw 3 guys over the course of practice and race day at the Moab Enduro Cup messing around with one of the 300 pieces of hardware on that frame.
    You mean the chainring bolts that they are passing off as pivot bolts in an attempt to re-coup some of the absurd weight gains associated with having 14 pivots?

    Maybe he does press mute as he goes by people.

    A friend of mine has become "that guy." It's become a point of contention.

    Been playing with how good or bad of an idea this is. Way more fun than a bell for alerting area Bears, for sure. Also good for hikers to hear me coming, although I will always stop, wait for my group to amass, and then pass as respectfully as possible with the thing muted if we're on a downhill. Always trying to defend the good name of mountain biking, although some of you may doubt it

    Honest question, why does it need six bolts on the pivot? Its there something unique going on there?

    I think it's so you can flip the chip they attach to around to get a slacker head angle and lower Bb. It's a triangle piece so three bolts needed to hold in place. I swapped it the other week and it was super easy though.

    FWIW, just swapped out the bushings in the top shock pivot on my Following with the RWC needle bearings ($35), HUGE upgrade in performance and feel from the rear of the bike now. Way silkier and can keep the shock pumped up relatively firm to make the most of corners and jumps while climbing it's incredibly supple off the top and janky shit just disappears. Highly recommend!

    Also extended the Pike to 140mm, swapped in some RWC hi-glide seals, and flipped the flip chip to High. Really liking how it's feeling so far.
