is 2023 zeb ultimate upgrades worth it for 600 bucks more than the outgoing zeb ultimate? the 2022 deals are really good right now.
For the record I use a 22pike 120 on the epic evo with just the charger 2 instead of the new 3, and I love it, but im wondering if the outgoing zeb felt the same way as the outgoing pike or had specific issues that were so annoying the new one makes a big differenceDo I detect a lot of anger flowing around this place? Kind of like a pubescent volatility, some angst, a lot of I'm-sixteen-and-angry-at-my-father syndrome?
fuck that noise.

Yes those should work for 240 CLs.
I ordered the DT 9102S (QBP HU1327) for the 15mm/CL 180s, and they worked great.

This shit is pretty good. Not sure about their 500mile claim but it lasts quite a while. Put it on a clean chain and reapply after a long time. Chain stays pretty much quiet and clean. 28cad. Ive used about 1/4 bottle in 2 yrs. Not sure where hou get it. I got it from some obscure distributor i cant remember

Sorry, but I’m skeptical about how good a lubricant that’s ~90% solvent can work…
I do believe it can stay clean, since there’s not much of anything left on the chain once the solvent evaporates. And since it stays clean, it could actually work better than a wet lube that just picks up dirt and turns into grinding paste. But I think it’s very unlikely to protect the chain from wear as well as a top wax lube.Last edited by J. Barron DeJong; 10-01-2022 at 09:35 PM.

My cheap bottle cages I bought years ago aren't holding bottles as well as they used to. What's a good, relatively cheap bottle cage that doesn't mark up water bottles and holds well enough for mtb? I often use full 26oz bottles on rough trails which can cause ejections..

Thsts entirely possible. I havent done any number crunching apart from less squeaking for more days. Works for me. One less thing to f around with

I thought I read that the new stuff is not reverse compatible? Like the buttercups, new air spring, and new damper won’t fit with previous forks?

I'm 100% sold on Fidlock bottles. Light, easy, compact, and they've held on through all the tech and crashes.

Thanks for the Elite rec! $20 is fine, I just don't want to spend like $50 per cage. The Fidlock system looks cool but I ride in a lot of hot weather and like using insulated bottles

King Cage is the answer. Stainless Steel cages, $26, won’t drop bottles, made in Durango by riders, for riders.

Yup King Cage. Need a little more retention? Just bend it. They probably will mark up bottles eventually though.

King cage is a rad brand, I used their fork mounts for my CT trip, but the cages definitely mark up bottles quite a bit.
I'm definitely a big fan of the Elite cages. smoothest entry/exit and definitely don't mark up bottles.

I have the elite cannibal XC and really like it. Snug bottle hold, but can remove from the side. Works well in tight space on the revel rail
Sent from my iPhone using TGR ForumsI need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....
Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

Lezyne Flow Cage SL: https://ride.lezyne.com/collections/...-sl-r-enhanced
Has left and right variants.
I like the King cages and have the stainless ones on my road and CX bikes but need a side loader on the MTBs.
