    Flats, punctures and Tears Oh My!

    High Rock Ruti That's the old way Dad, plush ride, soft tires, no squirm, no flats. Moreover I've seen plenty of flats with pressure in the mid twenty PSI range, just a great time on a group ride making the decision to let the flat tired person walk out alone or walk with them? I'm riding a...

    Flats, punctures and Tears Oh My!

    High Rock Ruti Big fan of Cushcore's, bought for one bike tried them loved them bought for the second bike. Haven't really had a super hard square edge hit, can run significantly lower pressures PSI, in the teens the cushcore supports the sidewalls so great traction and no wallow, oh yes NO...

    My Rail, Resting on Stuff

    High Rock Ruti Yes it has high and low speed compression, my LBS got the damper ($390) included when I purchased the Rail 9.8 XT. I just bought the socket to open the air chamber to check for spacers. I've been experimenting with pressure and rebound settings but so far I've been unable to...

    Trek Rail - first ride

    High Rock Ruti My understanding (rembering that I take a bicycle out in the woods and try to fly through the air trying clear obstacles instead of hitting them) is that the only difference between the Lyric on the 9.8 and 9.9 is the damper same for Fox fit 4 and grip 2. Someone may know...

    My Specialized Levo eats chains

    High Rock Ruti More power more wear. I get about 750 miles from a chain and cassette. Recently read a review of chain wear SRAM came out on top by some margin, they run them on and machine for days at a time and measure stretch. I'd rather wear out my bike than my body, just sayin!

    Levo SL Gen 1 Levo SL Expert - First Ride

    High Rock Ruti I just love a picture of a mountain (Sweet Ride) "resting on Stuff" (thanks Doomanic for the coinage) especially when there's signs of NO TRESPASSING in the background, for me those "signs" are personal invitation to explore.
