    Crestline 75/50 vs Pivot Shuttle AM vs Commencal Meta Power SX vs Pivot Shuttle LT

    8th till 16th. Could be pressed for time a bit however. But hopefully we could work something out.

    Crestline 75/50 vs Pivot Shuttle AM vs Commencal Meta Power SX vs Pivot Shuttle LT

    Hey bro, I'll be in nelson next week with my Crestline if you wanna try it. Could be setup a bit small for you at 470 reach. But you'll get the idea. It's a proper rowdy machine. The whole Crestline ownership experience has been great. I wouldn't worry they're not around the road...all bosch...

    which fork its better?

    Yeah I was going to mention a mezzer pro if you're concerned about weight. But really you need an ohlins fork on there to be matchy matchy.

    So I had some user induced issues with my dh bike yesterday. See attached pic 🤦‍♂️ So I did downhill laps with eebb all day, a dh fork makes a heap of sense on this 🤔 The difference in fore/aft stiffness between a single crown and dual is noticeable. Bike is a genuine do it all machine!

    Crestline ride review.

    As a serial upgrader of bikes, 10 months in how is the bike fairing? Well I can confidently confirm that I love this bike still and wouldn't change it for anything! In fact, I love the way it rides so much I tracked down a Crestline dh bike for the perfect 2 bike quiver! Further changes I made...

    Trying Clipless again...no spikes Mallet Enduro?

    I initially wound the pins in on my mallets, but figured it would wear the sole quicker (for ease of release) so put them back out. Absolutely mint now. Easy to get out, grip if I miss clipping in.

    Altitude powerplay questions for potential purchaser

    Hi I think I can chime in here. I am 178cm I had a L A70. It was 26kg ready to ride for me. Dh tyres cushcore xc +pro. I lean towards it being a battleship to be fair. But you get away with pretty rowdy descents. Other bikes are more poppy. You could look into shocks with extended eyes to...

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    Another option is to get the Rocky and get an mx link (if it's a carbon one) and run it mullet. The dyname is a great motor if you're prepared to spin those legs as you'd well know.

    I have a 2.4 krypto, on my ebike and dh bike. Goes all good. I can't imagine running anything else these days

    I've had motor disconnects before. It was the result of a bent latch and damage to the plastic surround one of the battery terminals. I just straightened it and cut the bit of plastic out (carefully!) hasn't done it since. Was your battery latch ever really hard to close?

    Will a small Orbea rise fit in a SWB VW Transporter with rear seats up without removing front wheel?

    I have a swb t6. Yep they're pretty tight for space. I use a Yakima highroad rack inside it and just load into that. I made a very elaborate system to hold 2 bikes using Rocky mounts which would fit bikes as narrow as possible, but it's pokey af.
