Why is everybody so down on the 15% sag? Fox recommends 15% for firm and 20% for plush on the 36. I know Rockshox recommend more but I think Fox know their own forks. Personally I am only 72kg and run 95psi with no tokens to give 15% sag and find it perfect. Very linear rather than progressive...

I have a Feb21 M10 with 7,000km on it and battery will hold to 99% for a week after charging.

Hi Steve that's exactly what I have done. I wish my kitchen scales were a bit more accurate but I certainly removed a fair bit of material and still looks much larger than the 0.2. Will get a ride on Friday hopefully.

Thanks Alex. I have installed my sanded down "0.3" reducer and hope to get a ride on Friday.

Wow Rusty, that is very cool that you make your own. I very much like your suggestion that it's not the number but the performance that counts so I will go ride my sanded down reducer and see how it goes. I had not thought about drilling holes in it as Bam Bam suggests but that is a very quick...

I have a DPX2 rear shock and after 18 months riding have decided that I want a volume spacer between 0.2 and 0.4 cu inches. Fox however do not make a 0.3. I weighed (on my non expensive kitchen scales) the 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 cu inch reducers and they were 3,6 and 9g respectively. This kind of...

Hahaha, sorry I don’t always read the whole thread!! You’re spot on though, my saddle is pretty rough but it’s a mountain bike after all. 😂

Flip it upside down.

Rise M10 for 16 months. 5,000km hard enduro style riding and no issues specific to Rise. Had usual wear and tear on drivetrain and bearings but zero issues with motor, battery and frame.

Right that makes sense. I also notice a massive difference between muddy and dry conditions and between max grip and max terra tyre compounds. Now that we have dry trails and I’m running max terra on back it’s much more efficient. I’m in Scotland btw. Very muddy winters.

I have had an M10 for 15 months and only ride enduro ie straight up and straight down. I weigh 72kg. I get about 800m elevation over 18k typical ride in Trail at 42nM. Will have 10% to spare. I have extender and with it can easily do 1400m climbing. Occasionally I will ride just Eco and you can...

DMR Vaults for me, take a beating. Tried Crank Bros Stamp 1 composite when they first came out but in the wet they were lethal, went in the bin.

I agree. I don’t notice it riding, just when I stop after a run to check it’s still flex and not slap!
