I feel as if I have seen both, but it’s been a looong time.

Hmmmmm I have been working with both cassettes and cranks.... hmmm but I'm trying to picture from where,

Do you have a chain guide/bash taco on your bike? Could be a spacer from the ISCG mount?

Is the inside diameter of that 12mm?

Will measure

Anyone know what bike this shock came off of and if it would be somewhat compatible for a Santa Cruz Tallboy?

Part number: 973-01-314
Description: 2021, FLOAT DPX2, F-S, K, 3pos-Adj, Evol LV, FOX, AM, 190, 45, 0.9 Spacer, CLA004, LRM0001, Rezi A2 L+ M+, Orange Logo

[Roxtar]

Mezzer Pro, the 29 version in 44 offset, currently set at 180.

And changing the travel anywhere from 140-180 is a 15 minute process at zero cost.

To follow up it was from an Ibis Ripley

Hmmm negative about 5mm ID, it's small. Leaning towards it being nothing, but my shifting does suck at the moment.

No axle damage. I filed a warranty with DT to see what they come back with. These upgraded ratchets are overpriced imo, so I'm hoping they replace it for n/c. I will say that the engagement is pretty awesome and I will replace it myself if I have to.

DT Swiss warranty is 2 years, so these were covered fyi.

Shock mounting hardware piece? The end piece that slides over the shaft.

You're not really helping, ya know. I don't even know why I asked since I don't have a bike that NEEDS such a bump. But I do have a couple that would undoubtedly be improved.... Hopefully someone else takes advantage of Boissal's offer. Otherwise, I'll be hitting up you and Collard on tuning tips for the Smash or Rail fork upgrade.

Takes about an hour to turn a really good fork into a damn near perfect one.
Ahm jus sayin...

Niner has to be the next company to cease operations, right? I thought the only people who bought Niner bikes were folks living in FtC, but now that they're relocating...

Ohio: where bicycle companies go to die.

Could be a state slogan or something...

What are Sid and Macky gonna ride if that happens?!
Fezzari?
Wait? Are they already riding Fazzari?

They're probably the only reason anyone even thinks of Niner anymore, TBH.

Fezzari is too busy sponsoring Mo and Hannah.

[jm2e]

Didn’t Niner already go bankrupt a few years ago?

Yep, that’s when they were bought up by PE.

[stuckathuntermtn]

Is Fezzari pronounced like the double z in pizza or is it like the Moroccan hat?

[volklpowdermaniac]

Realized it's been a while since I've updated my various bike registrations. Where are we in 2023 in terms of which is the best index/directory? Still have to get info to multiple sites to be comprehensive or has industry accepted a standard? (yeah f'in right.)

Hat. Here in the holy land where they're made it's the quintessential beaters bike. I'm pretty sure they come with a temple recommend and an invitation to join a MLM scheme.

My friend has a higher end build La Sal Peak (170mm travel), it’s a pretty sick looking bike in person.

Nope the answer is both 529 and Bikeindex are active a few comparisons suggest Bikeindex has become the more robust resource but I just figured load em all up in both.

[jamal]

Bikeindex integrates with a pretty popular point of sale system, so some shops can automatically register new bike purchases on there. I've been meaning to figure out how to set that up actually. They will also actually try to investigate bike thefts. Like all those bikes getting stolen from shops and winding up for sale on facebook in mexico

Can you mix-and-match Shimano brake components? Specifically, can I run XT lever assemblies with MT201 calipers?
