I don't know why I'm so surprised you all build and tinker with your own wheels

I think you’ll find the answer here to be Fuck Specialized. lol sorry, I have nothing constructive to add

If you don't notice a significant difference between the two, you are either very light, or not asking a lot of your brakes.

That Send it does look very nice. Never had a problem with fishing up the straps, but I keep mine on almost the whole summer.

Yeah, not too worried about the drag, just stuff flapping around and buckles on that side of the equation to beat on the tailgate paint.

eta that any road grime etc would likely accumulate there...

One last thought on pad straps....

If they are fed from the inside of the bed, the extra strap and buckle mechanism will then also be on the outside of the bed, which puts it into even more of a...

the straps are generally stout enough to slide through without too much fishing, especially if you lift the gate up a few degrees

Yeah, I'd check facebook MP or craigslist/pink bike, etc for your area for a bro upgrading to a wahoo or something and getting rid of a resistance trainer.

That is respectively honest...

I have my initials as my name on my license and my full name on my passport.... which gets me in all sorts of trouble when traveling... and remembering to hand the...

Schralph is gonna be in the garage with one of those tone kazoo things trying to hit the high A#

Tell them you'd like to return the sealant too.

:p

So, Specialized new DH bike, they finally took the cover off. A link BELOW the BB? I thought the new hotness was a High Pivot.. not a below the BB.

Interesting to see that finally come out after...

Is it skipping across the teeth or jumping down to the next gear? If the latter then a 1/4 to 1/2 turn on the barrel could set it straight.

Any chance the bike was laid down on the derailleur side...

New Mezzer next year?

They are pretty marked down right now

Wherever hands you a 29 inch front wheel and tells you to grow up

:p

Are you replacing or looking to upgrade?

Also clean/degrease the chain and relube it once you have it not too stiff in the same area.

Have you tried bacon grease?

This is what I'd try too, but with how much you ride you still may be swapping everything out by desert riding season 2.0

Better bolts and there are a few others… not sure they have exactly what you’re looking for

butt buzzing and side to side.. yeah.

I was more thinking the ability to roll the big holes that develop on WC courses, particularly in the compressions in the braking zones.

Interesting data:

1) surprised so many ride mullets. I guess they are tired of getting their butt buzzed on...

fat grips may actually make it a little worse. your thumb pad would be a bit further away from the lever.
ETA.
Those blingy levers come in red, we all know that is the fastest..

Does that mean...

I bet...

Watch that video I posted, it's that simple.... which, as one would assume with bikes, is rare.

Go down to the corner store and grab some ducktape and bubblegum.
Or try this:

some used SB 115s floating around too. That way you can fit in with all of the dentists on that side of vail pass.

That's a decent jump in psi.
If that fork is set up and feeling good 90% of the time, it may just be the adjustment for that ride... I'd hate to see someone get away from something that works most...

Sounds like a 45 or 50 mm stem on the medium or a 32 or 35 on the large would get you really close. But I'd just caution that that bike should feel a little different unless you really want the same...

I think they were owned by the same folks that owned Powder when they all folded. Powder is doing some sort of online resurgence.

Silly question.. but, are you going through any brush or grasses? I get that when I ride through dense trails.

my revolt still has the OEM BB... it has a few thousand miles on it. I haven't had to think about it yet.

Looks pretty cool if that silencer works.

This seems the consensus amongst users I've seen. They work better than most assumed.

ETA:
I guess minus a few here. The first review I saw basically was calling it hoaky.. then a few others got...

sure, leg is a chain of things... You could also be compensating for something else.

Where in your ankle? I'd get Achilles tendonitis sometimes and between some specific calf workouts and...

Is this a joke? Or have you avoided sprockets for the last month.

;)

Are you regreasing the pully wheels when you clean like that?

They have top levers for 2x still....

anything else and you're increasing the reach.

This.

I'd also tease them that this means new bike day... and they need a really nice new 170mm fork on that new bike... and actually, you have a better one to swap out...

30% sounds like a decent amount of sag...

Sometimes you get more into the progressive part of the curve to start so you'll feel that ramp up.
It's counter intuitive but a little more air MAY...

If your temp goes up and down it will change the pressure because your working with basically a...

Um, just a heads up, one is 27.5 and one is 29

The high pressures only feel faster…. It’s psychosomatic

I just order off amazon.

Also, the good mini pump with co2 compatibility was for me.. sorry, didn't mean to gum the recs for the travel stuff.

Good CO2 + mini pump to either put on the bottle cage mount or in the fanny pack?

Was looking for something like:

I get he's a kid, but a 2018 anything may be getting a little long in the tooth. Are they the same bike? was their an update to the frame in that time?
Is resale any consideration?

Nobody wanted to tell me how to spend $$.


That may be a first

I missed the boat on getting anything for my 19/V1 Megatower. So I've started putting money into it.
New bars
New brakes
Better pedals
new drivetrain (11-12 speed xt)

I'm using this bike as...

having a makeshift thumb screw pop out and altering your reach on some brakes sounds pretty fun actually.



I'm guessing setting up brakes for clients is a level of service smmokan was looking...

I have a short piece of housing that can maybe go with your cable... at this rate we'll have enough parts for a spare part build by 2045

It actually would have fit in the old one for sure.. not sure about the new one.

EtA, I'd have to imagine so. The old shells were all basically the same between 350 and 370, so I can't imagine...
