An American, A German and an Englishman get flown to Finland for a Pole factory tour and to ride their local trails. Sounds like a joke, but it isn’t.
It was a great experience and hats off to Leo and the whole Pole team for making the trip possible. The Finnish hospitality was impeccable...
Anyone want to buy a Voima frame? Built it in May 2022. Just had all bearings replaced and race axles fitted. Storm grey in size K2. The current motor has done 800 miles after the previous one packed up after circa 1500 miles. It is a really lovely bike, but the Sonni temptation was too much for...
It’s probably the cables rattling on the inside of the frame. I bought some fish tank filter foam and stuffed it behind the battery terminals. This prevents the cables from moving about as they are held against the frame. Rattle has now gone
I certainly haven’t noticed any loss in pop, it feels great, really playful. Agility feels better as it’s holding up better through the mid stroke so feels faster in corners, less spongy
Haven’t been looking at forks. Spent enough. Didn’t have an issue with the Fox 36 that came on the pro model, until perhaps a little bit now. The rear shock is definitely out performing the forks, but I don’t want to think about that; just going to ride and enjoy for now
The main reason to change to coil was to address the amount of pedal strikes I was getting on air. After two rides it seems to have worked, didn’t get any. Rode some rooty and rocky climbs and purposefully didn’t worry about pedal placement. There may have been a bit of luck, but definitely was...
It appears YT are bringing out a Decoy with a coil shock out soon. By coincidence my Ohlins TTX arrived yesterday from TF Tuned. Going out in an hour to have a play and get it set up
I bought it i an attempt to reduce rock strikes as I thought the coil may hold me up better in the mid stroke...
My tec pack fell off my bike on my first ride, I mustn’t have clipped it on properly. It went into the road and a car ran over it. The outer plastic case was cracked. I glued it back together. It worked fine for 6 months, probably circa 20 rides but then just stopped. I think the Port/ socket on...
