I notice most of the rider comments here are for the older, not newly released “Racing Line” version tires. I’ve been riding the 2.6 e-wild Racing Line Rear for about a month now after years on Maxxis 2.4 DHRll and find the added bite climbing and cornering a big bike (SC Bullit) is welcome...

I agree, that’s what my son & I are doing since we already have 38’s on our ride, so we’ll just do the drop-in whereas I believe alchemist was saying he was looking to buy new fork which is why I advised getting 2024 model 38.

Key part of bedding in is the heat generated to better transfer some pad material onto rotors. Just “riding along” will not work as well as the short interval, harder braking used in pad bedding process (as opposed to bedding your wife, girlfriend)!

New Fox forks did away with etune last year (made no sense because setting was actually lighter… I think they set ‘em up originally thinking an ebike was a beach cruiser). The new 2024 Grip X dampers have more sensitivity, more rider tuneability and less cross-talk between comp/rebound, side by...

Myself and few ithees in ride group are using new, updated RaceFace Ambush Knee guards… they work and wear well, only caveat is sizing runs small, I wear large in other brands but XL in RaceFace. Love the protection with convenience of putting on quickly with no shoe removal...

Fox did away with etune late ‘23 and new, updated forks for 2024 are using different damper (modeled after their Moto line). I wouldn't buy anything but the latest model if you want to truly be able to adjust ride, saving couple hundred $£ on outdated version wouldn't work for me

Are the pads you’re running sintered metallic? The metallic usually work best once heated up but not overheated (blue/purple rotor), when cold or too wet they can howl.

Not sure if they ship to you (company name say “Worldwide”)… https://www.worldwidecyclery.com/products/fox-mudguard-fork-fender-36-38-direct-mount-xl-black-1?variant=39670414147706

FYI… when Mother Nature rains on your parade, I suggest you put one of these (XL) on your ride and go out and play! Nice! When Mother Nature rains on your ride I suggest you take a look at these two links: https://www.mtb-mag.com/en/fox-introduces-xl-integrated-fender-for-36-38/...

Wow, kind of that “one in a million” things! Glad you've got it solved… go ride, have fun!

Shoot, forgot to add link in case you’re curious: https://sprindex.com/

Yeah, I had some bottom out issues with the 500 lb. SC site indicates 550 for the RS coil at my weight and Cane Creek agreed for their coil, my son uses that “Springdex” adjustable rate coil setup, which is pretty cool.

Interesting, neither I or my son have had issues with this rotor, me at 200 lbs on SC Bullit while he's about 170 lbs riding an SC Nomad, both were using HS2 with Code brake, now running new Maven brake and metallic pads, same rotors.

Just curious, sounds like heavy spring, what’s your riding weight (helmet, H2o pack, etc…)… I’m 200 lbs kitted, ride XL Bullit with Cane Creek coil with 550 lb spring.

Whoops, sorry I didn't catch the glass already being mentioned, does sound like some kind of hub issue.

Both my son and I recently switched to the SRAM Maven brakes from our Codes. We were running the HS2 rotors (220F, 200R) already and have not had any issues with Code or Maven, I have I-9 hubs, he has DT Swiss. Simple way to check rotor true is place rotor on piece if plate glass, if its out of...

You may want to review this guide it can be helpful… https://www.oneupcomponents.com/pages/dropper-post-length-selector

My son is 6’, rides LG Nomad with 210mm OneUp V3 dropper, I’m 6’2” XL Bullit with OneUp V3 210mm drop, leg length is main factor in seat height setting, which will influence dropper decision as well, might check their website to see difference and n post’s length.

I believe info is on website, maybe service manual.

Thats gonna depend on the brand/size dropper you have. As long as it actuates you're still ok, on a cable model you may find its a two-person or two-hand install (pull, feed the cable up through frame/headtube port while inserting dropper so you don’t kink it). You'll want to judge by how your...
