Well anything will be better. My vote would be the DVO Topaz 2. Our bikes weigh 50 lbs I don't think you need a coil. They are already very planted. Small bump sensitivity will still be a bit better with a coil but you'll lose some pop. What's more important to you? To me although it love coil...
Random bike shop in ID on vacation. But all they are, are black diamond straps. Any ski shop in the country will have them. I did get my keyhole allinged properly. I did have a friend who's batter flew out on his rail 9.7

Then just remove the rear wheel. Pull the cap off the cassette and then pull the cassette out. Put the 3 springs and pawls in the hub. Be careful the springs like to fly. You'll want to use a pick. And do them one by one. Put the spring in place the pawl in the slot...
For maintaining there are a few things I've noticed. You can spray away and not worry about shit. They seem very water resistant. The chain and cassette get way dirtier than a normal bike. You will want to move your mino link to the high position when going to a 27.5. Will give you 6-8mm more of...
Not just for that. You can run silly low psi. You have way more grip, and can always get home even with a flat. You never have to carry a spare tube again. It gives you basically an inch more of suspension. And takes some vibration away from your arms. Plus yes we have 50lb bikes and when you...
On the right side of your bike it will tell you. There's an arrow that points to a high and low setting. It's adjacent from where is says mino link on the inside of your frame.
Did you use the wet or dry application method? Gorilla Tape works great if you apply it right. You can also use racers tape, or 3M auto tape. Then there are a bunch of companies like invisframe that pre cut everything for you. Applied right and no dirt with ever get on the edges of the tape. My...
I’ve made a few upgrades that have made my rail even more fun than it already was, if that’s even possible.
1. Cush Core front and rear
2. Wolf tooth dropper post remote
3. XT shifter
4. Rev Grips
5. 108 point of contact hub upgrade
6. 160mm crank arms
Next I’m getting my first pair of...
New XT shifter, rev grips, 108 point engagement upgrade, put on racers tape (wet method), cush core, chainstay protector, 160mm crank arms (stock was 165mm).
Nope not true. I have a pressure washer with a low pressure setting and it works amazing. No issues after years of doing this. Muc off just copied the exact same one I have and charges 3x as much. Since I live in WA my ebike gets soaked anyways.Plus my water pressure is fucking horrible. So my...
I use one from harbor freight that has a low pressure setting and it works great. Comes with a soap attachment also for $80 bucks. Seth bike hacks did a episode with a standard pressure washer. It def got some shit wet that shouldn’t be. If you have decent pressure out of your hose there’s no...
