    Yeah it’s been a bit harsh on the rough stuff, even more so now it’s dried up in the UK.

    Going to hopefully get the Yari debonair with its new charger 2.1 RCT3 fitted this weekend. I know the RC2 is probably the better upgrade but I got the RCT3 off a mate for next to nothing. I think it will feel like a huge improvement over the Gold RL. Total upgrade (including sale of the old...

    Anyone tried the RaceFace Era carbon bars? Wondering how they compare to OneUp. Had RF carbon bars before and the top coat literally marked up if you looked at it angrily!

    My 9.5 has a few, chain drops, couple on the top tube. More noticeable as the under coat is white. However most of them are in spots the invisframe wouldn’t be so it kind of is what it is. I ride a lot where there are a lot of loose stones, sticks etc so the frame is getting a few hits but I...

    Neither are split type. Old fork is still on my bike. I will hopefully get the time to swap out over the weekend. Worst case will just swap them over carefully!

    So the fork I purchased already had a crown race fitted. What’s the best way to check it’s the correct one? When I take my old fork off slip on the bottom bearing and check it’s a good fit?

    Changed my mind on new fork and picked up a fairly cheap unused Yari debonair. Charger 2.1 damper being fitted this week before I install on the bike too.

    Charger 2.1 upgrade, will this fit?

    Spoke to TF Tuned and they have a kit which includes all oil and lube and they said they would chuck in some crush washers too as my local bike mechanic is good friends with them and they said they would find some for me in the workshop. My bike mechanic is going to do the swap for me as he is...

    Charger 2.1 upgrade, will this fit?

    The fork is new off another bike and never used so will I need any other parts such as seals etc? Or is everything that I need in the kit bar the oil and butter? As it’s just the damper do I just need the lower leg oil? Which is the maxima dynamic light stuff. And some sram butter. Actually...

    Charger 2.1 upgrade, will this fit?

    What oil do I need for the swap over? Guessing the kit doesn’t come with it?

    Charger 2.1 upgrade, will this fit?

    So I have a 2023 29 150mm boost fork. Just wondering if this is the right charger upgrade fit? It says Yari A1+ 2016+. Not sure what the the A1+ refers too? RockShox Damper Upgrade Kit - Charger2.1 Rc2 Crown High Speed, Low Speed Compression (Includes Complete Right Side Internals) - Lyrik...

    Random question, Rockshox - black and diffusion black, whats the difference? The details on Rockshox website show some forks come in both but only show one image/colour.

    I think that’s it! If I genuinely thought the fork was just not up to what I want it to be I would upgrade but having had a good fun few rides with no complaints with the fork it’s just that urge. Mainly because the fork probably is not that well regarded and my head just takes that on board and...
