    Good info but if youre referring to my comment i just gave my experience. I wasnt telling znyone what they should and shouldnt do. Every back injury is different. I have no experience with stenosis, or atleast i dont think i do. I do have degenitive disc disease though. First surgeon i saw 20...

    Orbea Rise adjustable geometry 64-65.5?

    Yes theres always a balance to find. I also see people way too far jacked over the front end on downhills because they insist on having low rise bars for climbing when all they need to do is bend their elbows a bit. You have all the time in the world to bend your elbows on a climb in comparison...

    Shimano Steps E8000 locking ring tool

    I was searching for one and eventually i found an lbs with one in another town, to tighten it for me, i guess thats really local though. Quotes from the real lbs were pricey at $80. Ebsy eould be the way to go. Shortly after i ordered some new shorter slx cranks for my enduro bike. The new...

    Coil Shock on Meta Power 29?

    Same as my meta am 29 slx bike. Shimano centerlocks. I put a centerlock to 6 bolt adapter on the front so i could bolt on a sram 220 rotor. My decoy has 220f/203r so its just easier to have both bikes able to swap wheels if needed

    STEPS E8000 Motor Service

    Thats great news! Good chance i missed it if it was mentioned, is it possible to get the tourque sensor replaced when the motor is sent in for bearing service? Not sure if thats even a thing but it seems that the tourque sensor is common failure. Just thinking itd be great to get a motor...

    Orbea Rise adjustable geometry 64-65.5?

    Itd be pretty funny if by chance you unknowingly bought his old wild fs. Nice bike btw or bike(s). Bases are covered with that quiver

    Orbea Rise adjustable geometry 64-65.5?

    Copy that. Tires are definitely adding some weight. There must be something in a similar category with a weight closer to the intention of such a bike? Can't remember, are tgeu schwalbe? Butcher/eliminator 2.6 grid gravities are 1200 g. Seems pretty reasonable for dh casing tires E storia...

    Coil Shock on Meta Power 29?

    Coil Shock on Meta Power 29?

    The commencal site is pretty detailed. In the "speccs" its listed as a 230 x 60 My commencal meta am came with an air shock 230 x 62.5 giving it 160mm of travel. The suspension system is linear. I put a coil 230 x 65 on it and that gave it 167mm of travel and because its linear i put a...

    Does Syncros mini bottle cage fit on the Decoy?

    Thats good, i like it. My yt bottle has some wear to it now and theyre $80 cad with shipping. The syncros has a left side removal option too and thatd be preferable with our right side brake lever. For op: i have a one up pump with the one up multi tool inside mounted beside my yt bottle, just...

    Reign E+ 2022

    It could be a wager on the weight. Winner gets to experience a full day of giant rain. We'll add the weight to the spreadsheet after 56.9lbs *large 625w
