I don’t have Maximas but I do have Direttissimas and I have run Saints, new XTR, Hope E4’s, Code RSC’s (closest I found in feel to them) and Guide ultimates.

The Trickstuff are really easy to bleed and shorten the hoses on, I do feel though at the price they charge they should come with a bleed kit, bionol, bleed block and the wooden pad pusher…[Read more]

Sorry I missed that part about the DPS.

As you have a shock that’s been pushed already (and likely don’t know what the tune is) I would personally send that back to TF to get it serviced and re-valved, the DPS isn’t going to be a game changer, I would stick with a tuned RP23 over a DPS as its a pretty compromised shock.

^ that shock is from long before Fox started cutting codes on shocks.

Bullroar, if you fancy trying an IL coil drop me a message.

Had them for a few weeks now and they are spot on, lots of small refinements from the MK4 which was already the best flat pedal I had used. The MK5 is further enhanced from that great base and the new shape feels great underfoot.

The lads have smashed it with these.

The bathroom is getting relocated from the back of the house with an external window to the middle and the only way we can add natural light is a velux window. In summer after speaking to other neighbours with bathrooms in the middle of the house they all said they wished they had a window to open as the steam can become pretty bad even with a…[Read more]

^ no it’s not. That’s a 5010 all day long.

Thats just a 5010, not an e-bike. It has a really large bottom bracket area.

Have you seen how many bearings that Enduro needs i the rear triangle! That would put me off that one straight away.

The 2018 and onwards luftkappe is different to the one in the 2015-7 fork.

No the A1/2 airshaft is different in length to the one for the later B1 fork. Also all B1 forks regardless of wheel size use the same air shaft for the given travel, unlike the A1/2 that used different lengths for different wheel sizes but the same travel.

Yes Boost and none boost Pikes yes different top cap threading. The boost one will be the same as the 2018 on B1 Pike. As for the air shafts I cannot recall off the top of my head, I can check on Monday.

Depends on the top cap threading and also the 2018 and newer pikes use a different length of air shaft than the A1/2 version to achieve the same travel so that might be different also.

What version of the reverb is it A1/2 or B1? Internally or externally routed?

Cannondale?

If you check the pressure with the post fully compressed then make sure you check it again when its fully extended as thats when the 250psi pressure should be achieved.

Is the speed adjuster full fast? If it is give it a bleed and see if you can pop it up. If you can then once its up do a full bleed again.

I have a customer who owned a Remedy carbon, pretty much top spec, reverb circlip failed (13 months of ownership) and shot down, cracking the seat tube. Trek said it was a RS issue, RS said it should have been serviced after 12 months (reverb B1s have huge issues with rotting circlips). Trek offered a crash replacement frame at £2600 I think it…[Read more]

You need an air shock and likely one with a small volume air can.
