I had a Suntour XCT fork and it locks up solid at 40°f and below. I saw a review for a higher level one and that was doing the same thing! These didn’t use oil in the lowers but grease. The dampers were not serviceable but cartridges similar to what dropper posts use.
The moment I tested my new emtb with 35mm clamp, no name alloy bars and grip diameter for a child I knew I needed the One Up flex bar and super cushy Wolf Tooth Mega Fat Paw silicone grips!
The stock setup was completely unusable for my beat up wrists. No more issues with the new goods.
New WTB HZT emtb wheelset, SRAM Code RSC Ultimates, HS2 Rotors, new tires, SRAM AXS upgrade kit. 🤩 Was pining for a new bike but this took care of that! The shifting and brakes are incredible!
I’m shocked more of these aren’t around. This thing is awesome. Installed a 27.5” rear wheel, shortened the cranks and lengthened the fork to 160. Put on a longer dropper and the OneUp carbon ebar. Also just out on a set of CODE RSC ultimates and HSC2 rotors (200mm ea end). Great seat angle...
I got my full power, aluminum framed, 630wh tank of an ebike as a placeholder until these new mid power lighter weight bikes were developed. I love riding it but want something more maneuverable. I also enjoy technical climbing and I’ve had a couple nasty falls with the 56lb bike.
My old bike...
