    why would you ever leave your bike unattended? would you leave a 2 grand watch on a table while you went for something to eat for 30 minutes?

    i found this from March, its the dual air but the dmaper is the same, is it a case of the famous MBUK who is the biggest advertiser wins review?

    Just remove the hub converters, they will come out but don’t be to rough, then knock the bearings out.

    i have just had an M-part Elite fitted for £35, looks good and all the bearings are fully replaceable and for a fraction of the price of hope.

    what is the set and forget setting do you reckon? like i said i have mine at 2 clicks from slow and only really alternat between open and threshold, keep moving settings depending on what you are doing next wouldnt work.

    interesting to see Fox have adopted a similar system with there 2013 forks.

    the open mode retro, threshold is wrote down on paper as only the highspeed compression, which seems to be the case hence its great on slow twisty,steps,drops wood work ect

    that’s the difference the front end on mine is quiet steep and i found it made it more difficult. the threshold is good for helping on tricky climbs 😀 i have also found myself flying off things a lot easier too 😀

    honestly split pins are the answer, they cost peanuts and are just as good, ok they don’t look as good but who can see your brake pad pins at 20 MPh 😀
