I've been running my medium mullet with a 160mm fork since April. I remember how much I liked going from 150 to 160 it's an absolute joy. It's time to service my fork and want to give 170mm a try but I'm a bit nervous about exceeding the axle to crown.. even more than already at 160mm. I feel...
Rainy Season has become in NorCal. Me and my Rise got completely trashed with Mud yesterday. What options people running Rear Mudguard - I'm running 27.5 x 2.6. Any suggestions? I would like to keep mud my off me and my bike.
What the difference between the two apps? I already have St ride. it has nice features but I just use it to check battery % on my Rise.
My rise is now a mullet and I've seen / heard I need to adjust rear wheel circumference to get back my max speed and can only do it in Stunlocker not ST Ride...
Question - Any way to unlock the speed limit? I feel like as soon as I stop peddling I lose speed that I need for hitting bigger jumps. It's more like drag than losing speed but in the end it's the same - is this a function of the detuned EP8 RS? Also wondering if unrestricting the motor would...
LBS didn't mention spider - Did say it will be tight with the chain guide though. No big deal if I ride w/o guide I believe. I'm certain I will like to gear range as well - Thanks
Any body put a 34t chainring on Rise? I'm on my third cassette and chain. Probably user error ( but 1500 miles in 9 months ) but LBS suggested as it my help avoid killing my 10 and 12 gears. I'm also considering putting on 160mm cranks to avoid increased pedal strikes after a made it a mullet 3...
Thinking about upgrade my M-team to full Carbon Rims - I've already put a 27.5" Roval Traverse ( made it a mullet with a wheel I already had). I believe the stock Race Face Turbine R-30 are fairly light but rugged. I might keep it as I ride chucky trails in Nor Cal mountains but any suggestions...
I turn my M-team in a mullet recently. The Hydro on my 27.5 rear wheel is awesome. Very noticeable from my first ride. Climbing up super tech stuff - the Hydro hub totally out-performs the vault in terms of engagement. No wasted energy .Expensive but worth it.
Anybody know what the geo changes when you up the fork to 160mm besides .5 slacker ( reach - BB - etc...). I've only rode it once since making the change. Hard to tell any difference at this point.
I want to try to run mullet - I've purchased the offset bushing ( if I decide to increase rear...
Thanks again for the input.
So I could try to keep the float X at 210x55 but adding offset bushing turned aroun -. Which increases the eye to eye to 214 x 55. What does this do to my travel - increase or decrease? At this point having more travel is not as important as keeping as close to the...
LOL - DanMcDan
Coming from a 27.5 bike - Making it a mullet is a little more than buzz butt. I'm curious to see how much more playful the bike can be in turns etc. - like my 27.5 . - Kinda wish the rise came in 27.5. Also hoping to make the bike lean towards more all-mountain / enduro focused -...
Such a wealth of information - It's good to have options. I have a Medium - M-team. Been riding it for 3 months and like to get after it. I'm 5'7" and buss my butt often on steep and or drops. I want run mullet - bump up fork to 160mm AND keep stock shock (210x55) Mostly because of the expense...
Can any one explain the differance between St-Ride and St unlacker? I tried using ST-ride to pair with my i-watch but it never connects on my watch just the phone. Thinking about trying St-unlocker instead but not sure if it's the same thing or ? also somewhat concerned about st-unlocker and my...
Unpairing worked to the extent that can now connect to the Shimano E-tube project app. But now the ST Ride app won't connect on my phone. There appears to be an motor update 4.1.8 which I plan on doing later. Maybe that will help all of this issues.
Same result - Error messages says app must be running on your phone which is was running . Also now I can't connect to my bike via the E-tube project app to adjust profiles - Weird because I could connect = the ST ride app on my phone but not E-tube app.
Vadll - thanks for getting back to me. I will try this again but this is exactly the process I did. Once I hit connect on my i-watch it never does. Just spins like to trying to connect but never does. I will report back
