    Cushcore, which rear tire for durability

    Weird, mine mounted up just fine. I followed a video on YouTube. I did use the Cush Core tools, which I think helped, but I do not think they were required to get the same result. I did let the tires and inserts sit in the sun for about 20 minutes, used a water soap mixture on the inside of...

    Cushcore, which rear tire for durability

    That is exactly what I was thinking. Upon a short amount of research installing Maxxis tires over cushcore was a breeze. Really no harder than installing any other tubelss setup if you watch the video. The reason I ask for where people get info like that is I want to make sure its NOT true...

On the question's face, if the majority or your rides are on your EMTB I cannot see how you would be as fit as you...

    Industry 9 Stem comparison

    That is part of it. But I wanted to understand what I can accomplish by chaning out the stem. On of the reasons I am looking at the I9 stem is there is an option to flip the stem to get different height measurements for the bars.

    Industry 9 Stem comparison

    The bars already have 27.5 mils of rise. I guess my next question is how much difference does one see for a given amount of bar rise?

    Industry 9 Stem comparison

    I have a new Trek Fuel Exe, and I am looking at possibly changing the stem out. I have never really played around with Stem length, but I feel like my weight is a little to far over the front on downhill sections of rides (note to date on this bike has been mostly trail type riding). The...
