Gary did mention "Unless your shock has a bypass circuit the oil has to pass through those same shims/ports whether the shaft is moving quickly or slowly. "
I think you might still misunderstand it, or I've misunderstood you :ROFLMAO: Compression damping slows down the compression of the suspension; it doesn't affect return speed. I think that's right? Rebound damping affects the speed of your suspension returning to extended? Gary was talking to...
I think you might mean compression damping? Some high end suspension have high speed and low speed compression. Mine only has low speed. I use it both ends if I'm playing on jumps or drops, or only the rear if I'm climbing or pedalling on the flat; otherwise it's wide open. I'm guessing low...
I just tried the online rockshox setup guide for my fork. I'm using 55psi, that probably bottoms out once every 4 or 5 rides, which seems ideal. If I enter my weight as 45 kg (I actually weigh 80kg) and select emtb, it comes back with 55psi and -13 clicks rebound. That is what I have it on now...
Looking at what has already happened, wouldn't it be better to go with the warranty? I'm guessing at the least they would now replace that terminal unit. At this point it is trouble that you don't need to buy into?
There wasn't a need :) You might be well aware of the risks, and that's awesome. Others may not, and this wasn't and hasn't been explained by specialized here.
being able to update via a download would be a lot safer. I wish shimano had this option. I'm never in a hurry to apply updates - if you look on download.com, quite a few bikes have been bricked.
I think the primary reason for testing is testing. You're looking for guinea pigs and offering no protection for the testers. Saying that "any beta user can roll back firmware" is a hope; can you roll back a brick? I wish those who have signed up for this the best of luck.
Upside down on some cardboard. I keep big cardboard boxes just for this. Good to lie on if you have to get under the car too. Or changing tyres on the ground etc.
I used to study with some dudes from a local prison - it was part of their socialisation leading up to release. One of them was in for using such a device. He had a big plot of marijuana in the bush. He was poor though, so just used an old shotgun, pointing in the wrong direction, and he forgot...
It's a strange thing, but lock picking is all the rage in the US. I think it is all tied into the survival thing that has been going on there, in a big way, for the last 10 years or so. It's where all those terms like edc (every day carry), bugout, and bugout bag have popped up. I think this guy...
if that works, that's a great idea! I'll try that too. It's nice to see that it is working the way it is supposed to though; that's what I like about the curb technique. What you suggest might be a good thing for the fork - setting that up seems subjective otherwise.
