Yesterday, 02:00 PMI haven't ridden a modern suspension bike where I felt like the kickback was throwing me. Maybe a little bit in weird situations where I hit a big...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

Yesterday, 09:47 AMDirt jumper. But I did ride it on pavement sometimes. It was back when road derailleurs were the only ones you could really get with short...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

Yesterday, 09:40 AMYup. Accurate. Knee pads when temps are reasonable, none when it's hot. When people say "pads," I assume that means knee pads, since I don't...55 replies | 1650 view(s)

Yesterday, 09:29 AMWhat BS am I making up? I said I don't wear pads when it's hot out and you got all worked up about it. I wear knee pads when it's not hot, or...55 replies | 1650 view(s)

Yesterday, 08:30 AMtoast2266 replied to a thread SRAM Eagle T-Type drivetrain and Code Stealth Brakes in Sprocket RocketsNice. That's the test I wanted to see. And yeah, that thing took an impressive amount of abuse. If be interested to see the same test on a...43 replies | 1712 view(s)

03-23-2023, 09:15 PMI'll take stitches once or twice over wearing elbow pads ever. Fuck those things. Coming up on 30 years of never wearing elbow pads and no...55 replies | 1650 view(s)

03-23-2023, 09:07 PMI did actually crack a frame once by doing (more or less) that. Chucked the bike on an air gone wrong. I landed upright, but the bike bounced...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

03-23-2023, 07:26 PMThe drivetrain has some improvements, at least in theory. The brakes are the inexplicable ones. They're the same as the old brakes, but now...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

03-23-2023, 03:52 PMAh, yeah, I meant the difference in suspension performance would be almost imperceptible. Seems like the O-chain probably irons out any minor...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

03-23-2023, 03:38 PMtoast2266 replied to a thread SRAM Eagle T-Type drivetrain and Code Stealth Brakes in Sprocket RocketsAll the videos I've seen involve people stomping on them with the bike laid on the ground. So they're basically just stomping on the axle. I'm not...43 replies | 1712 view(s)

03-23-2023, 01:17 PMIs consistency a good thing? It's basically just saying your suspension consistently feels a little worse. (as a practical matter, with an...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

03-23-2023, 12:27 PMI'd probably run an O-chain if I was racing DH. For all the doubters: go coast down a rough descent with no chain on and tell me your suspension...144 replies | 96026 view(s)

03-23-2023, 10:26 AMtoast2266 replied to a thread SRAM Eagle T-Type drivetrain and Code Stealth Brakes in Sprocket RocketsThis is my 2nd biggest hang up on AXS (the first being the batteries). I tried an AXS setup for a week and the clutch pretty much immediately shat...43 replies | 1712 view(s)

03-22-2023, 01:26 PMI don't believe specialized offers the stumpy alloy as a frame only, so I bet you're easiest avenue will be to buy the entry level bike for $2k, swap...155 replies | 11985 view(s)
