The weather is starting to warm up but it’s still very wet. A couple of us went or today and as expected it rained. I like riding in gloves and my Seal Skinznare great winter gloves. They are both warm and dry, a little too warm for this time of year. Does anybody have a recommendation for...
Well I bit the bullet and went for an Öhlins coil shock. First ride today and I’m chuffed with the feel of the bike on the back end. So now to decide what to do with the Zeb up front. 😬
I remember watching Rob’s video some time ago but couldn’t find it again. I have also done a search on here, just looking for a bit of reassurance as this is not a cheep upgrade. 😬
I have been talking to TF Tuned today about options for service and upgrade. They are not the biggest fans of the shock and offer no upgrade options to it. They said that if I want an upgrade they recommend the Öhlins coil. I haven’t ridden a coil before so is it worth the cost of the upgrade...
That’s a great video and really puts some numbers to facts. A static 25kg on the post is much less than a 90kg rider hitting a bump out on the trails when sat down. 🤙🏼
Thank you all for your input. I decided to pull the trigger last night and ordered a PRS-25 from Wiggle. It turned up today and looks well made. The pro stands having the all metal head would have been nice but way over my budget. So I tried my hard tail in it and as you can see it held it no...
I have tried this but if i want to tip the bike up I am left with the same issue where either the bike slips through the clamp or one end oother the other drops 👍🏼
Sorry I know this has been covered before but I am specifically interested in a Park tools PRS-25 stand. I have had two previous cheaper stands and to be honest they hold the bike but if you want the bike level it just drops the front wheel. This indicates that they are just not up to the job of...
“Have you had a good read of the suspension setup on the main page?”
Sorry for being thick but where abouts is this as I have just tried looking for it? Cheers Matt
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I love messing about with this sort of thing so at least if I get thing wrong I can get it back with shockwiz. Interestingly I rode this morning and found out the rear shock was too soft.
I am trying to get my head around suspension set up and have a Trek Rail 9 2021. So fare other than fiddling with the compression and rebound setting and to be honest I dont have much idea about what I’m doing. So I have purchased a ShockWiz to see if it can get me to a point where my bike is...
I attach my battery to the top tube and cut up an old tube to wrap around the top tube to stop it moving and protect the bike.. The light is brighter than anything else I have seen including exposure. The battery lasts ok if you remember to drop the power down when you dont need it. Even on the...
