What kind of racing where u doing when you ran those kind of sag numbers?? I run 35 and 40% on fast downhill coarse but on chunk i like to keep my bottom bracket higher reduce pedal strikes so i stay at 25-30%

that video it quite good but there one thing that i feel is critical they left out. After u set your sag before you do the bounce test you need your comp and rebound clickers fully open so your actually using air volume and the least amount of dampening force. If you don’t have them in the...
I don’t ever use the trail to set spring rate. I don’t even have the dampening side of the fork installed when i set my air pressure base and token values. Same way thefox engineers do it when developing the air pressure to weight scales. The scales printed do not incorporate head angle and...
I’m 190lbs, but i hate stiff high speed and soft low speed compression as it makes the bike chatter and loose grip and wallow . It also makes for needing to change air spring which shouldn’t be terrain dependent, only weight.
But the mountain bike industry has taken short cuts on dampening...
You say you always search for best setup but you never mentioned what changes you make to get there.
I have had my last two ebikes apart close to 20times re- valving, changing pistons, tokens, bands, oil bath, oil types.
I’m personally not a fan of the ramp control as it leads most users to...
Just wondering how many of you guys actually spend time setting up your suspension and have any of you had your suspension re- valved.
If you setup your own, did you change tokens, bands, spring rates etc.
I’m finding on the trail almost everyone who has ridden with me or around me has never...
You have to get boost hubs or you turn that kenevo into a wollow bucket and the tires will deflect into chain stays in rear and rub on hard corners.
I converted over to sram 8 speed emtb rear casset and that took xd
I have a Fantic Integra with 630ah battery if i run in boost and sport mode i can get 13 miles and 5700- 6200ft of assent i weigh 190-195lbs on average. My local tails are chunky, steep and i am not capable of climbing them in less then the top two power settings. As these trails are OHV...
For me i was only running the lower pressure for the feel and for traction climbing. As my speed increased on the heavy ebikes i realized the lower pressures where really hindering my corner speed as well as my sprint speed. So now i spend more time dialing my rear suspension and run 30-35psi i...
190lbs.
I cut 3 tires Nobby Nic, the factory then a snake skin, no marks in the wheel at all.
The grid case slaughter left a ding but I’m not sure which cut came first as by time i got stopped i had multiple cuts and a couple dings.
I have have put just over 100 miles on Fantic in past couple weeks and thought i would share my review.
The bike i been riding is a heavily modified evo FS3.
My first impression on the bike was it was rock stable, just a crusher of chunk and bump, they did a fantastic job on suspension (so far...
There hub drive so the chain and pedal system only see human power, the brake calipers and rotors are far bigger then that on a pedal assist style ebike. Friend of mine has one very similar to the B52, i actually didn’t care for it at all. Felt more like a motorcycle that was way under powered...
I ride with deveral conventional bike die hards. Do finally i started shreddifbrhe wider trails up way past them. Then go down psssibf by them to bottom and climb again. Usually by the end of the ride i have 4-7 more miles then them and 70% more elevation climbed.
After a few strava comparison...
Every time i run less then 26psi on any trail that has even small chunk i say yellow to the rim ding gods and good by to a tire.
Did the same thing with two slaughters in 1 day running 26psi.
Now I’m at 31 and i haven’t cut a tire in 6 months
I have two ebikes, one is a 27.5+ with 2.8 magic Mary front and high roller 2 on rear.
And my other is a 29er c 2.5 front and 27.5 x 2.8rear
The 27.5 is little smoother in chowder, little more forgiving on loose top hard base. Def rolls slower, and more tire flex in hard corners.
Took me a...
I hear you, i liked my levo but it didn’t have enough travel, was really disappointed in the kenevo.
So got the Fantic and it’s one amazing bike.
I don’t agree with most the reviews exp the rims are not up to a good feature park.
