    Trek rail rear shock upgrade ideas please

    Well anything will be better. My vote would be the DVO Topaz 2. Our bikes weigh 50 lbs I don't think you need a coil. They are already very planted. Small bump sensitivity will still be a bit better with a coil but you'll lose some pop. What's more important to you? To me although it love coil...

    Trek rail 9.8 first ebike on its way advise needed please

    For maintaining there are a few things I've noticed. You can spray away and not worry about shit. They seem very water resistant. The chain and cassette get way dirtier than a normal bike. You will want to move your mino link to the high position when going to a 27.5. Will give you 6-8mm more of...

    No way I can get a 2.5 DHF front tyre on rim. Anyone done this?

    Not just for that. You can run silly low psi. You have way more grip, and can always get home even with a flat. You never have to carry a spare tube again.

    155 are too short. I've been told your motor will have to be retuned for anything shorter than 160mm.

    Mino Link settings

    On the right side of your bike it will tell you. There's an arrow that points to a high and low setting. It's adjacent from where is says mino link on the inside of your frame.

    I'm curious what stock tires you have? My XR5 have been great in the PNW. I also can't imagine riding these bikes without cush cores installed.

    How do you like those brakes? I feel the stock brakes are good but obv could have more stopping power.

    They give you the feel of more suspension. You can run silly low PSI. Helps prevent flats and rim damage.
