New-ish movies? Only Lovers Left Alive(2013), Parasite (2019), The Art Of Self-Defense (2019), A Taxi Driver (2017) Nice one ^^

Nice, don't hesitate to post pictures of your rides in Alaska :p Sounds awesome.

Sounds normal to me.

Haha so true @maynard. I'm more a fan of TNG with Picard, DS9 and Voyager myself :p It's the og command panel for the Yamaha PW. I initially meant to replace it but it's ergonomically sound and really, really robust.

Quick update, it turns out that my brand-x ascend II was facing the opposite way from the factory assembly. I just flipped it around while servicing it. Really weird. That's why my actuator was on the rear left while my saddle/seatpost were all good. The actuator is now sitting front left. So...

Nice, not too far from my place! Enjoy the weather Serge :p

Welcome :) Are you from Wallonia?

Really fun! Groupset is indeed barely used. The bike is solid and nimble. On technical steep descends, I don't know why but I felt confident. I left the 3.0 tubeless on the front just for fun (2.3 rear) and the carbon bars so it wasn't that bad on the wrists with the rigid forks. I'll quickly...

Haha calm down everyone, we all just babbling about fun bikes. I do agree with Gary about flex and stiffness you can have it all with all materials depending on the frame structure. He's a bit harsh when he thinks something is plainly wrong but hey so did you on this one! Get a room already...

Interesting points! Yeah I was sure I edited the title, my plan is to swap forks when I feel like it, that's why it's not totally rigid in my head and why I messed up my title heh.
