Good advice here. I know I don’t lean into the corners enough so that’ll exacerbate things, maybe revisit the suspension pressures too. I’ll take a look at that video for sure, flu, toddler, life etc. going on behind the scenes right now as well 😅
The conservation definitely has lent into braking but I only see that as part of it. When I ride twisty tech trails, off camber or fast corners etc. the momentum - behaviour of the bike can be disconcerting, I’ve got stock ish fox settings, decent maxxis assagai /dhr tyres with inserts but I...
Thanks for everyone’s responses, I did put some hs2 discs and Dt swiss pads on which helped, but maybe based on this I’ll look at a full upgrade. I guess I hoped for a bit more on riding technique rather than a deep dive on brake tech but fun to read nonetheless! 🤟
I have had the brakes not be able to stop me enough after some scary dh tracks during an enduro stage for sure. Replaced the pads and discs since which has helped. The way it carries speed into things catches me out even now though.
I definitely feel it’s more planted, but the momentum it carries doesn’t feel confidence inspiring through fast corners I guess. Running out of talent probably covers some of it!
Hi there, first post to the forum and had my Mondraker chaser r for 11 months now, been riding naturally aspirated MTB for years before that. One of the things I’ve not quite got my head around is the run away train feel on fast descents. I’ve made some upgrades with brake discs and pads now...
